Heather Rae El Moussa didn't get the response to her Valentine's Day Instagram post that she was likely hoping for.

The Selling Sunset star uploaded a series of photos with her husband Tarek El Moussa, their 1-year-old son Tristan and 8-year-old stepson Brayden–whom Tarek shares with ex-wife Christina Hall–on Wednesday, along with a caption that called the three of them out. Notably left out of the photos and Valentine's Day wishes was her 13-year-old stepdaughter, whom Tarek also shares with his ex.

"Happy Valentine’s day to my boys T, T & B ❤️👼🏻," the Feb. 14 message began. "I have never felt so much love in my life. All 3 keep me on my toes but I wouldn’t want it any other way."

"I am so thankful to have you as my husband my best friend and my partner @therealtarekelmoussa . You are my person, and the best daddy I could’ve ever asked for," the 36-year-old shared before concluding with, "I love you very much honey and I love you Tristan and Bray❤️."

The reality TV star's followers quickly called her out for what they saw as a "terrible" snub.

"you can wish a girl happy Valentines too. Sad to just say the male kids," one top-liked comment read.

"Is the stepdaughter chopped liver on vday?" a second asked.

"I cannot believe you chose to alienate Taylor on Valentines Day," another wrote. "That is SAD."

"And what about Taylor. What a way to make her feel less than the boys," a fourth suggested. "It’s 2024…that’s terrible!!!!!"

Though Heather continued to post about her romantic Valentine's Day with Tarek as it occurred in her Instagram Stories, she eventually gave Taylor a shout-out, too.

"Go Tay!!! My forever galentine," she wrote on Thursday over a clip of herself and Tarek cheering on the teen at a volleyball game.

In a second Feb. 15 Instagram Story, Heather shared a photo of herself hugging Taylor, adding a caption seemingly aimed at the haters. "We close our ears to the pettiness. We strive for positivity only," she wrote. "My girl knows she's my #1 gal."
