This is the situation for a support redouble as discussed here. It’s a useful convention and I recommend it for you and your partner.

your call1

Your right-hand opponent opens the bidding one diamond. You pass with your ugly hand. Left-hand opponent responds one heart. Now your partner comes in with a preemptive overcall of two spades. Right-hand opponent doubles to show exactly three hearts. Summary of the auction so far:

your call2

*Support double showing exactly three hearts.

You know that partner is weak and opponents have game and possibly slam.
