Is Heather Dubrow returning to "The Real Housewives of Orange County?"

Don't pop the champagne just yet but it wouldn't be a crazy idea to leave it on ice. Dubrow, who appeared on the Bravo reality show for seasons 7-11, discussed the potential for a comeback on the "Behind The Velvet Rope with David Yontef" podcast released on Monday.

When asked if she missed being a part of the cast she candidly answered, "I don't," adding that being on the show was really tough and she "cried a lot" during her nearly five-year run. However, just because she doesn't miss it doesn't mean she wouldn't return.

"Honestly, I would never say never, because you just don't know what life is gonna throw your way," the 51-year-old dished. "Or how circumstances change or what you feel like doing... I don't even know what that set of circumstances would look like."

With the exit of longtime "RHOC" stars Tamra Judge and Vicki Gunvalson there is more than enough room for Heather to slide in and reclaim an orange. Whether or not that is in the cards for her remains to be seen, but other alums from this branch of the franchise have been vocal about their desire to return to the series.

Meghan King Edmonds, who was a cast member for seasons 10-12, expressed her feelings about the show during the iHeart Jingle Ball Tour in Los Angeles in December 2019.

"I miss [the show]. I liked it," the 35-year-old said at the time. "I told Andy [Cohen] that I really want to consider coming back as a 'friend.' But I’m kind of not really dead set on it [yet]. So if he [asked me to come back] I’d be like, 'Well, let’s talk.'"

Digging deeper into the "RHOC" vault, Gretchen Rossi had the same thoughts as Heather when asked about returning to the show at The Victoria's Voice Gala at the Westgate Las Vegas Resort & Casino in October 2019.

"Here’s the thing I always say, never say never, because watch if they come next year and go, 'we’ll give you $5 million', then sure," the 41-year-old mother of one said. "Slade [Smiley] and I, we really do feel like we’ve grown past that. We feel like it was a great platform. We enjoyed doing that. I did it for half a decade. He did it for eight years."
