Terry and Heather Dubrow sued by former business partner
Reality stars Terry Dubrow and his wife Heather Dubrow are being sued by an attorney friend of their accountant over a business venture gone bad.
The history behind the lawsuit is that Botched star Dr Dubrow and Real Housewives of Orange County regular Heather, claim a few years ago their long term friend and accountant, Gary Hoffman came to them with an attorney pal of his, Steve Czik, proposing a deal that was going to make them a whole heap more cash.
An associate of both men named Jennifer Lindsay Bell planned to make a killing renting property in Brazil and then subletting it for sky high rents during the 2014 World Cup. The couple say Hoffman and Czik encouraged them to invest an initial $1.5 million, and that the two men were so convinced it was a sure thing that Hoffman even signed a personal guarantee, promising to reimburse the Dubrows if the deal didn't pan out.
Well it didn't pan out. As the World Cup got closer, they were asked for a further $250,000 which Terry Dubrow coughed up without consulting Heather (we don't even want to imagine her reaction when she found that little nugget out).
With their exposure now at a cool $1.75 million they sat and waited for the cash to roll in—which it didn't. Apparently Bell's first check bounced so they went to Hoffman to make good on his guarantee. Caught out not doing their due diligence, they found out he actually had no money, and that the whole deal was more than a little shady.
The reality stars sued all three, and Heather has used her podcast to broadcast their side of the row, as well as putting out a Wanted For Reward call on Jennifer Lindsay Bell who is believed to be hiding out in London.
Don't piss off Heather Dubrow!
They managed to serve a subpoena on her before she fled and are dealing with their former accountant's insurance company to try to recover some of their investment. Heather says Hoffman has admitted to not knowing Jennifer Bell, making a faulty personal guarantee and fraud.
Steve Czick, the attorney, is fighting back at the lawsuit against him with his own action that sees Terry and Heather Dubrow sued for alleged extortion. He has this week filed a counter-suit claiming they threatened to ruin him if he didn't make good their losses.
According to TMZ, he says he got an email threatening him;
"Your photo will be published in every magazine and all over Instagram if you don't pay us, how fucking stupid are you?"
The email went on to call him a "lying scum sucking asshole" and boasted that TMZ Live would cover the story.
The Dubrows haven't responded to the claims of harassment and defamation yet, but you can bet the atmosphere at Dubrow Towers is a tad tense today.
Heather has not let hubby Terry off the hook. She now says she had misgivings from the beginning but that she went along with the scheme because Terry was so convinced it was a good deal. She says;
"Terry and I are relatively smart people...we fucked up. We didn't do this appropriately.
Our accountant knew that we had all this money sitting around [after the sale of their $16.45 million house] so we were ripe for the picking.
Terry failed because he did not find out what the collateral was on this personal guarantee and he didn't show it to our attorney."
Ever heard the phrase "if it seems too good to be true, it probably is"?
Terry's going to be paying for his mistake in more ways than one!
OC, Alexis Bellino, S5-8. We lived through Alexis' excruciating attempts at presenting and acting plus her new nose and ridiculous puppy birthday party. What she really stood out for though was being thick as shit and having a hideously controlling husband. But hey, she looks great in a bikini.
OC, Gretchen Rossi, S4-8. Gretchen was initially brought in as the gold-digging bimbo until her fiance sadly passed away. She didn't do herself any favors though by then hooking up with serial wife-slayer and super-douche Slade Smiley. She desperately tried to stay relevant—even staging a cringefest proposal, but ended up getting the boot along with Alexis at the end of S8.
OC, Tamra Judge, S3-Present. You can't help but just love Tamra. She may be mouthy but after what she went through with her truly vile ex-husband, her happiness with new hubby Eddie should be celebrated.
OC, Jo De La Rosa, S1-2. The original singing housewife, Jo left after breaking up with Slade Smiley (she was his first conquest) with her dignity intact after former friend Gretchen "broke the girl code". Intact until her appearance with Smiley on 'Date My Ex'.
NYC, Kelly Bensimon, S2-4. Kelly may look sexy, but anyone who saw her legendary melt down on Scary Island would know to steer 50 blocks clear. The woman is cray-cray.
NYC, Sonja Morgan, S3-Present. No-one thinks Sonja is as sexy as Sonja herself does. The woman is more than a teeny bit nuts, but good fun with it (plus I seriously want the name of her Dr / gossiping facialist because she looks amazing).
NYC, Luann De Lesseps, S1-Present. The Countess is way too classy to allow herself to be photographed in her underwear, but she can still bring the sexy. And we definitely know she has a naughty side (remember the sexy pirate?).
NYC, Bethenny Frankel, S1-Present. Our favorite returning housewife, Bethenny used the show to launch her Skinny Girl empire. Sexy in a ballsy NY kinda way, but with a bit of vulnerability too—who can forget her heartbreaking devastation over her break up with Jill Zarin?
NYC, Alex McCord, S1-4. No-one in the world thinks Alex is as sexy as her social climbing husband does. I mean literally no-one in the world except him thinks she is sexy.
ATL, Cynthia Bailey, S3-Present. Supermodel Cynthia knows how to work it and can turn on the sexy or the classy whenever she wants.
ATL, Kenya Moore, S5-Present. Twirling ex-beauty queen Kenya has an incredible body and she's not afraid to tell you about it. A little too nuts to be truly sexy though.
ATL, NeNe Leakes, S1-7. Ms NeNe is Queen of Shade and is Very Rich and extremely fabulous—we're not sure if she's sexy though, but frankly we were too scared not to include her!
ATL, Porsha Williams, S5-Present. Porsha definitely wears the lingerie well, its just that she spoils the sexiness when she opens her mouth.
ATL, Kim Zolciak-Biermann, S1-5. Whatever you feel about the wigs and the make-up, you can't deny that mother of six Kim has an incredibly sexy figure (even without photoshop).
NJ, Teresa Giudice, S1-Present. If you can overlook a whole heap of things, including the weird hairline, Teresa did have a really good job done on her boobies and for those alone she gets a mention.
NJ, Dina Manzo, S1-Present. Having originally left the show after falling out with her sister Caroline and then returning once Caroline had quit, Dina was not an obvious choice for this gallery. Then we came across this photo shoot and she was IN!
NJ, Melissa Gorga, S3-Present. She may not be able to sing but Melissa has one hot, sexy bod (causing husband Joe to implode if he doesn't get to release his poison regularly).
NJ, Teresa Aprea, S6-Present. One half of the firey twin duo who arrived to stir things up amongst the NJ ladies. Teresa is the twin married to Rino, who took exception to Victoria Gotti revealing that he had allegedly had an affair with the twins mom!
BH, Lisa Rinna, S5-Present. Not an obvious choice, but aside from her dated hair Lisa is looking HOT in this photo.
BH, Erika Girardi, S6-Present. They definitely needed an injection of sexy in Beverly Hills after Brandi's departure, and Erika sure fits the bill!
BH, Camille Grammer, S1-2. Camille still pops up as a friend (oh how we wish she would return permanently as the most passive aggressive person in the world that she was in S1), and the former playboy model definitely has the right assets to make this gallery!
BH, Brandi Glanville, S3-5. Some people don't find Brandi's outspoken-don't-give-a-fuck attitude sexy but we love it! Plus she really does have a smokin' hot body.
M, Adriana de Moura, S1-Present. Who knew Adriana had such an amazing figure? We're always so distracted by her elastic mouth and trying to block out her annoying voice it completely passed us by!
M, Larsa Pippen, S1. Larsa is a fan of the sexy selfie, and she's had a good tutor seeing as her BFF is Selfie Queen Kim K. Shame she had a boring kinda vacuous personality though, which is why she only appeared for one season.
M, Lisa Hochstein, S2-Present. It's kind of a given that Lisa would make the list of sexiest housewives seeing as she's married to a plastic surgeon who specializes in boobs!
M, Joanna Krupa, S2-Present. The embodiment of an incredibly sexy body being completely ruined by an ugly personality. Do NOT go near this girl when she drinks.
