‘RHOC’ star Katie Ginella insists Heather Dubrow called paparazzi

“Real Housewives of Orange County” newbie Katie Ginella is doubling down on her claim that Heather Dubrow called the paparazzi on herself — and teasing the evidence to prove it.

“There is more,” Ginella, 40, says in an exclusive interview with Page Six’s “Virtual Reali-Tea” podcast, referencing the polarizing text — from an unnamed friend who oversees a prominent photo agency — she shared on Season 18.

The former golf reporter emphasizes that she and her husband, Golf Channel host Matt Ginella, have known the individual — who, via text, replied “yes” when she asked whether Dubrow had coordinated a shoot herself — and trust that their assertion is accurate.

“My husband and I have been in media for 20 years. We’ve known this person, and he is in charge of a big company that controls the paparazzi,” she says, though she is unwilling to unveil more details of their conversations on the matter.

“I’m not going to share our personal text because I respect his job and I respect his position and I wouldn’t do that to him,” the Bravolebrity elaborates. “I guess it’s going to look like that’s not a good enough receipt, but I’m going to be respectful to a friend, a dear friend.”

In Season 17, Dubrow, 55, was accused of calling the paparazzi on herself and her husband, Dr. Terry Dubrow, at Disneyland in response to rumors that the couple was experiencing friction in their marriage in the fall of 2022 due to alleged cheating. (Heather and Terry brushed off the infidelity speculation.)

This was all before Katie claimed a full-time role on the reality show.

Shortly after cameras picked up for the current installment, she brought up her purported proof that Heather had worked with a shutterbug to capture photos of her theme park date with the “Botched” surgeon.

Heather has vehemently denied ever staging a photo op, especially in heated conversations with Katie.

Katie tells “Virtual Reali-Tea” that the women are not on speaking terms.

As for her paparazzi agency pal, she says he is staying out of the drama as it plays out onscreen.

“They kind of just disengage,” she says. “But I do know that there’s more.”

The brunette beauty — who made history this year as “RHOC’s” first Asian American woman to star on the unscripted series in its 18-year tenure — also points out that “semantics” may play a part in Heather’s rebuttal.

“If you look back, I think it’s semantics a lot. Heather said, ‘I didn’t call, I didn’t call,’” she explains. “Well, that doesn’t mean your assistant or a friend [didn’t]. … It’s pretty obvious.”

“The Real Housewives of Orange County” airs Thursdays at 9 p.m. ET on Bravo.
