"The Hills" was filmed at a beautiful time in history, aka 2006, when reality shows were just starting to make a breakthrough. While the plot of the show was (at least somewhat) scripted on "The Hills," the actors were told to be themselves in the situations (via Distractify). That means that the heartbreaking scene where Heidi Montag revealed her plastic surgery to her mom was very much real. It was so real that it put a strain on their relationship for two years (via Yahoo).
At the time of the scene, Heidi, who was 23 years old, revealed to her mom that she had 10 body-altering procedures, all at the same time (via Today). The television show sat the mother-daughter duo on-screen and taped her mom's reaction to her new look, and, well, it didn't go the way Heidi thought it would.
"I said to my mom before I filmed with her, 'Hey, I'm very vulnerable right now. I hardly can talk. I can barely move my jaw. I just had all these procedures. If you can't rile behind me and support me, don't film with me. I said it's not worth it. I'm telling you right now, I'm not going to be able to talk to you,'" Heidi said on the "Call Her Daddy" podcast, via Yahoo. "And I didn't talk to her for two years after that."
