Heather using a racial slur in her podcast
From the episode on Tuesday 19 May 2026
Heather - "This popped up and I'm like, "What the f?" This is US Weekly. I wake up to this, inside Tyson Fury's 16-year-old daughter named V, Venezuela's dreamy wedding. I'm like, what?
There is a famous boxer in Europe and they have a reality show called like Keeping Up with the Furies or something. Um, I don't know if they're gypsies or what. Remember my big gypsy wedding? those gypsy girls that have reality show that you're like it would like their hair would be up to here and their outfits were all tacky. I don't know what the deal is, but she's 16 years old and in the reality show, she's got a 19-year-old boyfriend and he's like, "I'd like to marry your daughter." And the guy is like, "Okay."
The mother of the bride is 36 and um I don't know, they it was just it's just weird. And I mean I guess US Weekly has got a report on it, but it wherever they got married in Europe, 16 is the legal age for female consent or male whatever consent to get married. You don't need your parents approval, I guess. Um, and then the mom was like, well, what if she just wanted to live with him? No one would care. Why at 16 are you living with someone?"
"Gypsy" is widely considered an offensive racial slur.
It is often used to dehumanize or perpetuate negative stereotypes about traditionally itinerant communities.
The word originated as a mistaken reference to "Egyptians," reflecting historical misconceptions about the origins of itinerant people.
While some Romani and Traveller communities (particularly in the UK) have reclaimed the term as a point of pride, it is generally advised that outsiders avoid it.
