Selling Sunset season 8 drama explained: Who is involved?
Basically, it's Chrishell, Chelsea and Emma vs. Nicole... with Bre on the side attempting to mind her own business but being dragged into it anyway.
It all started when Chrishell took to her Instagram stories to blast Nicole after watching the season 8 episodes ahead of the release. Based on what's been said on social media, Chrishell and Chelsea are absolutely fuming at Nicole after she spread a rumour about Emma. Emma has been completely blindsided by the whole thing.
Mary was also called out by Chelsea but has not directly responded. Amanza and Jason are the only cast members to have not commented publicly on the whole thing.
What did Nicole Young say about Emma Hernan?
In episode 5, Nicole brings up a situation involving Emma while at dinner with Mary, Amanza and Alanna. Both Mary and Amanza, who appear to know what she's referring to, strongly advise her to stop talking but Nicole continues to spill.
While skirting around the details, she says: "As a married woman, that kind of sh-- pisses me off. If I were the wife, I'd f---ing kill someone. But also my husband would never in a million years."
In the final episode of season 8, Nicole is having a conversation with Bre about her friendships with Chelsea and Emma when Nicole decides to elaborate on her previous accusations about Emma, incase Bre wants "ammo" later down the line.
She says: "I think it's real interesting for Emma in particular to have comments about other people's marriages and get involved in any of that because I've heard some grey things in terms of that. So I would be careful in her position, because she's been involved with people she... shouldn't have been. So..."
When Bre asks, "married people?" Nicole responds: "I wouldn't trust Emma with my husband." "Not a husband snatcher..." Bre then replies, before Nicole nods her head.
Nicole explains that she heard it from someone she knows very well, before claiming that they had already previously confronted Emma about it.
These accusations also appear to be something Emma was not aware of. Emma does not learn about them in the season 8 episodes, which therefore means she's unable to address them or defend herself against them.
On Instagram, Chrishell shared a poll with the caption 'Get Nicole Off My Screen Button', alongside a comment reading: "Are we really still giving air time to LIARS that just want air time??"
She continued: "I will NEVER work on a show with her on it again. I would rather be sued. (Disclaimer when you watch: just know she spews a disgusting lie about a bestie that is categorically FALSE and SUPER damaging. It is NOT TRUE.)
Chrishell then went on to call out the production company, calling them "disgusting for blindsiding [Emma] with this to see with the world instead of letting her at LEAST defend herself with the TRUTH."
Chelsea also slammed Nicole, calling her "the most diabolical piece of [trash can emoji] I've ever met". She added: "You wanna start a rumour about Emma because all the rumours about you are true."
She also tagged Bre and Mary, accusing them of lying, placating and stealing.
In response to the comments from Chrishell and Chelsea, Nicole defended herself, saying: "As a married woman, I strongly and confidently stand for the sanctity of all marriages."
"Instead of attacking me and accusing me of lying, I think you ladies need to ask your bestie some tough questions. Did she let you know she was directly confronted on camera at the season 7 finale by the wife's best friend?" Nicole added, in reference to an alleged moment caught on film that did not air as part of Selling Sunset season 7.
"Even still, I stated this info as a rumour. And given both of you have been the victim of extramarital affairs, I would think you too would stand for the sanctity of all marriages," she added.
Bre, on the other hand, shared a handful of quotes to Instagram signalling that she's staying out of it. In a comment, she called Chelsea a "miserable, hateful human" for calling her out, and confirmed that she is not aligning herself with Nicole.
This is now the third Selling Sunset season to feature the ongoing feud between Chrishell Stause and Nicole Young.
In season 6, when Nicole joined the cast, the two came to blows over a past listing and it all came to a head during a group dinner in Palm Springs where Chrishell accused Nicole of being on drugs.
Chrishell has also previously accused Nicole of making stuff up and lying just to get more screen time on the show. In screenshots shared to social media, Chrishell exposed Nicole's previously friendly messages that show she was on good terms with Chrishell before she started filming. Chrishell accused her of fabricating their feud so she could feature more on the series.
In season 8, Nicole apologises to Chrishell following an incident on social media where Nicole thanked someone for defending her. In the same comment, that person was being homophobic to Chrishell. The two were on better terms after the apology, but now Chrishell wants nothing to do with her.
