Heather Rae El Moussa displays her defined abs with post-baby body confession... after husband Tarek's scuffle
She welcomed her first child over two years ago.
Now Selling Sunset alum Heather Rae El Moussa is sharing the secrets behind her svelte post-baby body.
In a video uploaded to her Instagram, the HGTV star showcased her sculpted abs - but assured followers she 'doesn't always look like this.'
Heather, clad in a tan sports bra and rolled down pink sweatpants, showcased her defined torso as the toddler she shares with husband Tarek El Moussa, Tristan, padded about in the background amongst his toys.
Soundtracked to the infamous 'I'm a mommy' quip from Love Island, Heather, 37, swayed her hips from side to side.
In the caption, Heather opened up about how becoming a mom changed her fixation with dieting and working out.
'Ladies I want to say I don't always look like this. Some days I'm bloated AF & feel like I'm carrying extra weight... Some days I feel lean and toned. I fluctuate mentally and physically,' she said.
'I use to be addicted to working out, I did mainly cardio and had NO carbs, like zero. Then I had Tristan and my whole mentality shifted.
'As a mom my priorities are different.
'Now I workout when I can (normally 3-4 days a week.) I listen to my body. If I'm not feeling 100%, I rest and focus on healing. I struggled (still do) with a thyroid disease. I've added in the correct supplements, and a night time wind-down routine to calm my body so I wake up in the AM feeling my best to conquer, or try to conquer, another day.
'My point is, I listen to MY body I do what makes ME feel good. Remember a new day is a new start!'
She compiled a list of supplements, workouts, and other products that have helped her feeling 'good', which included magnesium water, detox capsules by celebrity trainer Paulina Hefferan, weight lifting, and measures for quality sleep.
Heather and Tarek welcomed baby Tristan in January 2023, less than two years after tying the knot at the Rosewood Miramar Beach hotel in Montecito.
In addition to little Tristan, Tarek also shares daughter Taylor, 14, and son Brayden, nine, with his first wife Christina Haack.
Christina and Tarek shot to fame together on the HGTV home renovation program Flip Or Flop, which they continued hosting even after their split.
The exes are now amicable in the years since their split and recently joined forces again, competing against one another in the HGTV show The Flip Off alongside Heather.
While things are all peaceful on the personal front, recently Tarek was embroiled in legal woes following a scuffle with another man in Sin City.
Earlier this month Tarek was arrested in Las Vegas following an altercation at The Palazzo at the Venetian hotel.
According to reports, the incident began when a man allegedly bumped into El Moussa's father and made a comment, prompting El Moussa to allegedly assault him.

Team Trump hawks ‘DADDY' T-shirts using mugshot photo after White House embraces NATO chief's nickname
Donald Trump's campaign fundraising arm is now selling T-shirts with the president's mugshot and the word 'DADDY' emblazoned on the front after the White House embraced the nickname used by NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte to describe the president earlier this week. 'THEY'RE CALLING ME DADDY!' the president wrote through a Trump National Committee Joint Fundraising Committee message on Thursday. 'When Biden was President, we were LAUGHED at on the world stage. The whole world WALKED ALL OVER US!' the message said. 'But thanks to your favorite President (ME!) we are respected once again,' the message added. 'Moments ago, NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte called me DADDY on the world stage. How nice!' The shirt — featuring Trump's booking photo from Georgia, where the president and his allies are criminally charged with racketeering and conspiring to overturn 2020 election results in the state — costs $27. The message follows a White House video on social media that shows Trump returning to Washington after the NATO summit in The Hague, set to Usher's 2010 song 'Hey Daddy (Daddy's Home).' Rutte jokingly referred to Trump as 'daddy' during a sit-down in front of the assembled press as they discussed the conflict between Israel and Iran. Trump had shared an obsequious text message from Rutte before the summit on Truth Social. Even after Trump announced a ceasefire between the countries, the missiles kept coming, causing Trump to lash out with some harsh words for both nations. 'We basically have two countries that have been fighting so long and so hard that they don't know what the f*** they're doing, do you understand that?' Trump told reporters on the South Lawn of the White House before setting off for the summit in the Netherlands. At the summit, Trump told the press: 'They've got a big fight, like two kids in a schoolyard. You know, they fight like hell. You can't stop them, let them fight for two, three minutes, then it's easier to stop them…' 'And then daddy has to, sometimes, use strong language,' Rutte added. 'Strong language, yeah, every once in a while,' Trump replied. The president was subsequently asked about the interaction and if it suggested that he viewed other countries as 'children.' 'He likes me. If he doesn't, I'll let you know, I'll come back, and I'll hit him hard,' Trump responded. 'He did it very affectionately. 'Daddy, you're my daddy.'' Rutte later said that he was trying to compare Trump's relationship with Europe to that of a father and his family. 'What I said is that, sometimes, in Europe, I hear sometimes countries saying, 'Hey, Mark, will the U.S. stay with us?'' he said. 'And I said that sounds a little bit like a small child asking his daddy, 'Hey, are you still staying with the family?'' The committee has sent more than 1,000 fundraising emails since the president was inaugurated and recently used the protests against the administration's immigration raids in Los Angeles to ask supporters for cash. The campaign fundraising committee uses Trump's images and signature as if the messages were sent by the president himself. The committees have often used scandals to raise money from supporters. His mugshot has also been put on other T-shirts — and Christmas wrapping paper — and the president's criminal indictments have been included in hundreds of messages. In the Trump shop, an array of MAGA hats is available, including those with the phrases 'Gulf of America' and 'DOGE.' A copy of the Gulf of America or the DOGE executive orders is available for $43, as are T-shirts depicting Trump after the attempt on his life in Butler, Pennsylvania, last year.

Anna Wintour steps down as editor-in-chief of American Vogue
The departure of Anna Wintour as editor-in-chief of American Vogue leaves a bigger absence in the fashion world than would be left by the departure of any designer, or any supermodel. For more than three decades, Wintour has held the official title of editor-in-chief of American Vogue – and an unofficial, but widely acknowledged, title of queen of fashion. At any catwalk show, the best seat in the house is automatically Anna's. Like Beyonce and Madonna, Anna has no need of a last name; everyone refers to her simply as 'Anna', although few are bold enough to address her directly. She has been a constant, regal presence, crowned by the signature glossy bob and ever-present sunglasses. Wintour's status has been built not just on ego, but on how much she has done for fashion. She has amplified the place of fashion in culture beyond all recognition. The ambition and bravado of fashion today – from Louis Vuitton hiring the Grammy-winning musician Pharrell Williams as creative director and taking over an entire district of central Paris for his debut show; to blockbuster fashion exhibitions such as the V&A's Coco Chanel retrospective becoming fixtures on the art world calendar – owes a vast debt to the vision of Wintour. An early instigator of putting actors, pop stars and politicians on the cover of her magazine, she understood instinctively that a Vogue cover bequeathed an intangible but potent 'soft power' that celebrities craved, and that Vogue's role as gatekeeper to that power could be leveraged in Washington and in Hollywood, as well as at the fashion weeks of New York, London, Paris and Milan. The cartoonish percepion of a woman who is powerful simply because she lords over a world of ditsy underlings who are petrified by her is very far from the truth. Wintour grew the fashion world into an empire, making fashion itself bigger and more powerful, and rode high by keeping hold of the reins. She is unusual in being both a glamorous A-list celebrity who wields personal star power, and a gifted behind-the-scenes operator, always on manoeuvres behind those dark glasses. In the court of Vogue, she has been both King Henry VIII and Thomas Cromwell, commanding ceremonial power while also pulling the strings behind the scenes. It is, however, entirely true that most of those around her are intimidated by her. Her operational mode resembles that of a military commander: decisions are made swiftly, and she does not suffer fools gladly. In public, her emotional tone hovers around a cool courtesy, dipping to frosty lows if displeased by unpunctuality or incompetence. This is a persona which Wintour – who in private is devoted to her family, is a tennis superfan, a passionate supporter of the arts and a witty and phenomenally well-read conversationalist – has crafted carefully. Her image was enshrined in 2006 by the cinema release of The Devil Wears Prada, in which Meryl Streep played Miranda Priestly, a New York fashion editor. Based on a book by a former assistant of Wintour's, the film's starring role was widely assumed to be modelled on her. The imperious 'Nuclear Wintour' persona has served her well. In 2012, it was widely rumoured that Wintour, a heavyweight fundraiser for both Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton, was in the running to be appointed the US ambassador to London. The rumour turned out to be unfounded, but the degree of gossip mill traction for the idea of a magazine journalist being appointed to a high-powered position in international diplomacy is testament to the gravitas and prestige of Wintour's reputation. Wintour was born into journalism. Her father, Charles Wintour, was editor of the London Evening Standard for much of her childhood. She began her career in her birth city before moving to New York in her 20s, recrossing the Atlantic to become editor of British Vogue in 1985. That job was only a staging post for the highly ambitious Wintour, who achieved her goal of editing American Vogue three years later. Her keenly developed instinct for which way the wind was blowing was evident from the start: when the printers received the image for her first cover, they called the Vogue office concerned that there had been a mistake. The photo featured model Michaela Bercu in faded blue denim – the first time jeans had appeared on the cover of Vogue. The post-dress-code informality that was to transform the fashion industry in the last decades of the 20th century was already being hinted at. It is a stretch to imagine Wintour, whose daily regime as editor began with rising at 4.30am to play an hour's tennis before a 6am blowdry, fading into gentle retirement. Her daughter, Bee, who works in the theatre world, once said that the lesson her mother was most keen to instil in her children was a work ethic. Bee recalled how, as a high school student attending a Vogue gala, she asked the guest sitting next to her to test her on Latin American history, as she had a test at school the next morning. But there is much more to Wintour than the ice queen image. Her devotion to tennis is such that she would even play hooky from New York fashion week when shows clashed with the US Open tournament, taking a seat courtside instead. Sign up to Fashion Statement Style, with substance: what's really trending this week, a roundup of the best fashion journalism and your wardrobe dilemmas solved after newsletter promotion The timing – halfway through the menswear fashion shows – left fashion puzzled, but make more sense from a tennis fan's perspective. With Jack Draper poised to fill the gap in British tennis left by Andy Murray, and a simmering rivalry between Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner, her departure is Vogue's loss but SW19's gain.

Jake Paul storms out of Piers Morgan interview wearing a sombrero after claiming he would beat peak Mike Tyson
A SOMBRERO-SPORTING Jake Paul stormed out of an interview with Piers Morgan after claiming he would have beaten a peak Mike Tyson. The shocking incident occurred ahead of Paul's Saturday clash against former boxing world champion Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. 4 4 4 The fight will be Paul's first since the 28-year-old defeated legendary gloveman Tyson in November. There was a 30-year age gap between the two men, with many not taking Paul's win seriously as a result. However, the influencer saw red when he was taken to task over Tyson's age by Morgan. Appearing on Piers Morgan Uncensored to promote his fight against Chavez, Paul donned a sombrero as he talked up his skills in the ring. This saw Morgan ask whether fighting 58-year-old Tyson had been an 'edifying spectacle', to which Paul responded: 'If Mike Tyson wants to fight you, of course you're going to say 'yes'. "He walked away with tens of millions of dollars to support his family for the rest of their lives, and we've made the biggest fight in history. So, 128 million people would disagree with you, that it wasn't something amazing.' But Morgan refused to give up as he declared: 'The problem is the only proper boxer you fought was Tommy Fury, and he beat you. He's not even the best in his family.' An inflamed Paul said: 'I mean, you can sit there and make up s**t, but you actually don't know your facts. I fought multiple boxers with professional records, and including Mike Tyson himself, who I think is going to be a harder fight than Chavez.' He then declared he would have beaten a peak Tyson, to which Morgan said Paul wouldn't have lasted 10 seconds. The American was not having any of it though, retorting: 'You don't actually know that! You can't sit there and say that... I think anything is possible. That's why self belief is the most powerful thing in the world. Jake Paul issues heartfelt message to ex-boxing opponent Ben Askren who needs lung transplant after battling infection 4 'You don't think I can be a Mike Tyson? I don't think you go to the gym!' Morgan said: 'I think you're a great YouTuber, a great influencer. I admire what you try to do boxing, but I do think when you actually come up against a proper, serious boxer, and I suspect that Julio Cesar Chavez Jr, maybe that person you, it could all come crashing down.' Paul fired back: 'I think the problem here Piers, is that you think that your opinion matters? '(Why come on the show?) Oh, I'm just taking your audience to sell pay per views. I don't give a f**k about your show, dumb ass. This is a f**king business enterprise. Buy the pay per view on Saturday, June 28, me versus Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. Thank you, tune in everybody!' Paul then promptly hung up the call, leaving Morgan to reflect on their fiery encounter. The broadcaster said: 'Cheers Jake, really enjoyed that, and good luck to Julio - knock him out for all of us will you?'
