We are five seasons into Netflix show Selling Sunset now, so fans across the world know exactly what they are going to get with show villain Christine Quinn, but her latest interview could have just changed the show FOREVER!

Christine, who has appeared on the hit show since season one, has sat down with Alex Cooper on her Call Her Daddy Spotify playlist, where she dropped some serious bombshells about the show's 'fakeness', her cast members and her own life.

Admitting Chrishell Stause is the co-star who has genuinely hurt her the most, Christine went on to reveal she thinks her relationship with boss Jason Oppenheim wasn't genuine on her behalf, calling it very 'opportunistic'.

Revealing she thinks the relationship was real for Jason, Christine told Alex: "It comes off on camera, it's like Stockholm syndrome.

"I think it was opportunistic, I think it was a great storyline. I think that Jason did have genuine feelings for her. Do I think that she had genuine feelings for him, no.

"I have seen Jason and I saw a different side of him, I really did. He seemed happy and in love, but it was one sided in my opinion. I've only seen them together twice, which was once at my brokers event where I was wearing the black dress and even then I could tell that she was really uncomfortable and she didn't want it.

"But Jason has genuine feelings towards her, I saw the chemistry that Jason radiated towards her."

Check out all of the Selling Sunset relationships below:

Who is Chrishell Stause dating?

It's been a whirlwind few years for Chrishell Stause's dating life! When she first joined The Oppenheim Group back in 2018, Chrishell was married to This Is Us actor Justin Hartley, but as documented on the show, the pair split and went through a divorce.
Following her appearance on Dancing With The Stars, Chrishell went on to date professional dancer Keo Motsepe, but this only lasted a few months.


Shocking fans across the world, Chrishell started dating her boss Jason Oppenheim in 2021, with their romance playing out on series five. However, much to the disappointment of fans, Chrishell and Jason decided to split after Jason admitted he wasn't ready for children, something Chrishell was eager for ASAP.


Although many had hope of a Chrishell and Jason reunion, Chrishell revealed in May 2022 that she's now dating G Flip, a non-binary singer from Australia. Chrishell met G Flip after starring in their music video for track 'GET ME OUTTA HERE', where the pair pack on some serious PDA. In May 2023, Chrishell and G Flip confirmed they are now married, and they've been massively loved-up every since!

Who is Mary Fitzgerald dating?

Chrishell wasn't the only member of the Selling Sunset cast to date her boss, Mary once also dated Jason Oppenheim, with the pair sharing a cute little dog together, until he sadly passed away in February 2024.


As well as Jason, Mary was also married twice before meeting her French Prince in Romain Bonnet. Mary's first husband sadly passed away, whilst admitting her second marriage just didn't work out.


As shown on Selling Sunset series two, Mary married her toyboy Romain in October 2019, at a lavish ceremony attended by the cast.


Mary is a proud mum to her 26-year-old son Austin.

Who is Jason Oppenheim dating?

If you listen to the ladies of The Oppenheim Group, it sounds like boss Jason has been a little bit of a self-confessed ladies man over the years.


As well as briefly dating Nicole and Mary a number of years ago, it had looked like Jason had found 'the one' with co-star Chrishell, when the pair announced they were dating in 2021.


Despite admitting Chrishell was the best girlfriend he's ever had, Jason split with the real estate agent after realising he wasn't ready to have children.


Although he got very emotional about their split during the series five reunion, Jason went on to date model Marie-Lou Nürk, but they announced their split in May 2023. In September 2024, Marie-Lou revealed the lovely news she's now engaged to her partner Ronan.


In August 2023 Jason appeared to have found love again after he was pictured kissing influencer Danika Tanya on a beach in Saint-Tropez, however it now looks like he's dating Canadian tennis player Genie Bouchard.

Who is Heather Rae El Moussa dating?

When Selling Sunset first kicked off, Heather was in a long-distance relationship with hockey player Nick Ebert, but the pair called quits on their romance.


Heather then started dating TV personality and real estate investor Tarek El Moussa in series two, with their romance moving very quickly.


After it was clear they were a match made in heaven, Tarek proposed to Heather and the couple's wedding was shown in series five.


As well being a proud step-mum to Tarek's two children Taylor and Brayden, the couple welcomed their first child together in February 2023, a baby boy!

The couple then welcomed their first child together in 2021, a baby boy called Christian Georges Dumontet.


In March 2024, the pair split, with Christine filing for a divorce in April 2024.

Who is Emma Hernan dating?

As fans of the show know, Emma shares an ex-boyfriend with co-star Christine Quinn... in the form of Oppenheim Group agent Peter Cornell. Peter actually proposed to Emma, but she called off their engagement!


Despite going on to match with Hollywood actor Ben Affleck on dating app Raya (before his reunion with Jennifer Lopez), Emma confessed to Chrishell she turned his date down.


In series five, Emma was linked with her client Micah McDonald, with the pair having clear sexual chemistry during their dates. Despite this, Emma has since stated the pair are still just friends.


During the reunion show, Emma confessed she is still a single lady, but she had been enjoying spending time with her ex fiancé Peter!

Who is Vanessa Villela dating?

Before joining the cast of Selling Sunset in series four, Vanessa dated Cuban actor Mario Cimarro between 2009-2013.


As documented in series five, Vanessa is now well and truly smitten with her new boyfriend, Brit Tom Fraud, with the couple getting engaged in 2022.


In September 2022, Vanessa and Tom got married in a stunning ceremony, with Vanessa sharing the most beautiful photos to her Instagram page.

Who is Amanza Smith dating?

Amanza married NFL player Ralph Brown back in 2010, with the pair enjoying two years of marriage before they split. During scenes on Selling Sunset, Amanza has claimed she'd not heard from Ralph, who she shares two children with, since 2019.


As well as admitting she once dated The Script's Danny O'Donoghue, Amanza recently confessed she's had a secret boyfriend for two years, but she's not yet revealed his identity.

Who is Chelsea Lazkani dating?

She only joined the cast in series five, but already Brit Chelsea Lazkani has caused some drama.


Chelsea married business tycoon Jeff Lazkani at a luxury resort in Newport Beach in 2017, after they met in 2015. Chelsea and Jeff also share two children together, a three-year-old son called Maddox, and a two-year-old daughter called Melia.


In March 2024, after nearly seven years of marriage, Chelsea filed for a divorce from Jeff, citing 'irreconcilable differences'. The scenes play out in series eight.

Who is Davina Potratz dating?

Davina likes to keep her private life VERY private, but we do know she has a long-term boyfriend called Alex.


Although she's only briefly mentioned him on the show, Davina did share a cute snap on Instagram with the caption: 'Happiest of Birthday's to my handsome babe.'

Who is Maya Vander dating?

Just like Davina, Maya likes to keep her other half away from the drama of Selling Sunset. Maya married her husband Dave Miller in June 2017.


Maya and Dave welcomed their first child, a baby boy called Aiden in 2019, before the birth of their daughter Elle in 2020. Maya announced she was expecting her third child in 2021, but in December, the reality star confirmed the heartbreaking news she delivered a stillborn son.


Just six months after her stillbirth, Maya revealed in June 2022 she'd suffered another heartbreaking miscarriage at 10 weeks.


In May 2023, Maya announced she'd welcomed her third child into the world, a baby girl called Emma.

Who is Brett Oppenheim dating?

Like his twin brother Jason, Brett has chosen not to 'settle down' with any lucky ladies.


In Spring 2021, Brett started dating Australian model Tina Louise, with Tina even making appearances during series five of Selling Sunset.


However, Brett and Tina announced they'd split in December 2021 after eight months together, when Tina revealed the break-up between Chrishell and Jason made her rethink about her own relationship.


Despite the split, it appears Brett and Tina are still good friends!

Who is Bre Tiesi dating?

Bre is currently dating American TV host Nick Cannon, with the pair welcoming their first child together in 2022, a baby boy called Legendary Love Cannon.

Who is Nicole Young dating?

Nicole married her husband Brandon Young in April 2017. Although the pair don't have any children, they have two dogs.

Who is Alanna Whittaker Gold dating?

In January 2019, model Alanna got engaged to Adam Gold. The pair went on to get married in an intimate ceremony in July 2022 in California. She wrote on Instagram: 'It's hard to put into words how special this day was. We are filled with an overwhelming amount of love and gratitude as we step into this next chapter of our lives as husband and wife.'

Of course, Christine wasn't the only person who had doubts over Jason and Chrishell's romance. When the unlikely pair first announced they were dating in 2021, fans of the show were in shock, with many calling it a 'showmance'.

However, after seeing the pair together and candidly talk about their futures on series five, before splitting up due to their different wants for children, many changed their opinion, with fans left in tears as the pair got emotional during the reunion episode.

Although Chrishell is now dating non-binary singer G-Flip, it does look like the pair have remained best friends.

Meanwhile, Chrishell and Jason's relationship wasn't the only thing Christine spilt the tea on during her interview with Alex Cooper.

As well as calling out the show for being fake and scripted, Christine admitted she'd put in numerous complaints about the show's creator Adam DiVello, and confessed she's the highest paid cast member alongside Jason, after she hired her own entertainment lawyer.

In the bombshell interview where she most certainly didn't hold back, Christine also revealed she will be back for series six, and despite the producers making it look like she'd been fired from The Oppenheim Group for THAT bribe, Christine confirmed that story was completely made up for the show, and she didn't know anything about the apparent meeting with Jason and Mary, which she was made to look like she didn't show up for.

Christine has recently started her own real estate group, but it sounds like she still wants to be a part of the hit show. She said: "The thing is I love the show and I always want to be a part of a show, period, I love being on television.

"I don't know what my future looks like in terms of Selling Sunset, but they have reached out to me and want to get creative in storyland world.

"I told them, I made it very clear, I filmed last season under the intention that we were going to go along with me starting my own brokerage, and you made me look like a fool. It's one thing to do things for TV and have fun with it, but when you're accusing me of criminal misconduct that draws the line for me, because that's not stuff I participate in."
