Exclusion from the Launch Party
The premiere of Selling Sunset Season 9 on October 29, 2025, has been overshadowed by significant tensions within the cast, particularly involving Bre Tiesi, Chrishell Stause, and Chelsea Lazkani. Bre Tiesi organized an unofficial launch party for the season, deliberately excluding Chrishell and Chelsea from the guest list. Sources indicated that Bre aimed to maintain a positive atmosphere by avoiding any potential drama, leading to widespread criticism from fans who viewed the exclusion as unprofessional and indicative of deeper conflicts within the Oppenheim Group.
Chrishell Stause's Perspective
Chrishell Stause has been vocal about her issues with Bre, particularly after Bre's controversial social media posts and alleged derogatory remarks about Chrishell's partner, G Flip. In an Instagram Story, Chrishell expressed her discontent, stating, “Some people are GREAT for tv, but when it comes to talking about our real issues... they tend to be cut.” She elaborated that her dislike for Bre was not arbitrary but based on personal experiences and information shared by others, including text messages revealing Bre's negative comments about her and G Flip.
The Fallout from Season 9
The tensions escalated during the Season 9 reunion, where Chrishell and Bre confronted each other over their issues. Chrishell accused Bre of being a "mean girl bully," while Bre defended her actions, stating that social media was not the appropriate platform for airing grievances. This confrontation led to several cast members walking off the set, highlighting the dysfunction within the group. Chrishell later remarked on the reunion's brutality, indicating that it solidified her decision to step away from the show, stating, “I wish everyone the best, but this isn’t the place for me.”
Criticism and Fan Reactions
Fans have reacted strongly to the exclusion of Chrishell and Chelsea from the launch party, viewing it as a calculated power move by Bre. Many criticized the decision as a reflection of the ongoing workplace tensions that have come to define the series. The backlash on social media emphasized that the drama surrounding the cast has overshadowed the show's original premise of luxury real estate.
Official Statements & Responses
While Chrishell has expressed her desire to move on from Selling Sunset, Bre has not publicly commented on the fallout from the launch party or the reunion. The Oppenheim Group remains silent on the internal conflicts, leaving fans to speculate about the future of the show and its cast dynamics.
What's Next for the Cast?
As the reunion episode aired on November 5, 2025, viewers are left wondering about the future of the cast. With Chrishell indicating she may not return for another season, and Chelsea also expressing uncertainty, the dynamics within the Oppenheim Group appear to be at a breaking point. The upcoming reunion special is expected to address these tensions directly, potentially reshaping the future of Selling Sunset.
