Stephanie Shojaee fired back at a series of online rumors on her Instagram Story on Sunday.

As the 40-year-old Real Housewives of Miami newbie hosted an “Ask/Tell Me Something” session for her fans and followers, she was forced to defend herself against claims of sleeping her way to the top, of being husband Masoud Shojaee‘s ex-wife’s former assistant, and more, prompting her to lash out at her “unattractive” and “cheap” haters.

“You slept your way up!” one person alleged on July 13.

“If sleeping your way up worked, you’d be on top too. So what happened? Because by the looks of your profile you slept yourself to the Walmart clearance aisle,” Stephanie clapped back.

She then responded to someone who mentioned the recent rumors, via a viral Reddit post, regarding the way in which she met Massoud, 65. The rumor alleges Stephanie started out as the assistant of Massoud’s ex-wife, a claim Stephanie is now denying.

“Assistant? I’ve NEVER even met the woman,” Stephanie wrote of Masoud’s former wife. “Let’s be clear: rumors like that don’t start from truth, they start from bitter people looking for attention. But I get it … when people can’t be part of [the] story, they try to rewrite it.”

Someone else wanted to know if Stephanie would be a part of season eight.

“Let’s concentrate on season [seven], and making sure it’s the best season and most watched! I think the fans of the show should post more and make RHOM way more popular than it is,” Stephanie shared.

Another person asked, “What would [you] like to change in [yourself] if [you’re] able to?”

“I’m a little too judgy, definitely hot-tempered, and I’ve got an attitude,” Stephanie admitted. “The good news? I never stay mad for long. I let it out, sleep it off, and by the next day, I’m over it like it never happened.”

As the chat continued, Stephanie’s questions and answers became harsher.

“I can’t stand you, but I’m still hooked on watching you,” one person declared, sparking a lashing out from Stephanie.

“It’s ok … I’m noticing a pattern! All the unattractive people can’t stand me, and all the pretty ones adore me … Try a little Botox that maybe will help you,” she advised.

Then, when someone told her, “You dress horrible,” Stephanie replied, “I’d love to dress like you, but looking cheap on purpose isn’t really my thing.”

The Real Housewives of Miami season seven airs Wednesdays at 9/8c on Bravo.
