Everything We Learned From the ‘Selling Sunset’ Reunion About Chrishell Stause's Romance With G Flip and More

The cast of Selling Sunset couldn’t officially move on without confronting the past — and the season 5 reunion answered a lot of questions about where they currently stand. Chrishell Stause and ex Jason Oppenheim, who split over her desire to have kids, were in the hot seat during the Friday, May 6, reunion, which taped late last month. "I think there's a lot to work through, and we're getting there," Jason told host Tan France about the split, which happened in late 2021. In a previously unaired clip from the season, fans see Jason get emotional while chatting with Mary Fitzgerald about the breakup. “I think the more I thought about it, I went into the other direction. I just felt like this is not the time in my life when I want to have a family. I feel like I f—ked it up, I feel also guilt we were happy and f—ked something up that was really good, and she's in pain and I caused that,” he said in the deleted scene, calling Chrishell “the love of my life.” He concluded: “And now I have to deal with her being happy with someone else and I'm probably never going to meet someone like that again. So it f—king sucks.” [jwplayer CTKfqqUc-zhNYySv2] The real estate boss also admitted that he “didn't handle the breakup as well as I could have” as he “shut down a little bit emotionally to make it easier on myself.” “We've had some time to move on, but seeing her upset on the show was difficult,” he explained. “I need to get through today so I can help myself move on.” While both Jason and his twin, brother Brett Oppenheim, cried on stage over the split, Chrishell revealed that she is seeing someone else — nonbinary musician G Flip. “It started because I was just going to be in their video. And it's about this chaotic love story. I come from soaps, I love acting,” the Dancing With the Stars alum explained. “And with the job that we have, I don't always get to do it. At first of course I was like, 'Yes, let's do that.'" Chrishell added that she still wants to be a mother, but she isn’t putting as much pressure on herself. “I, you know, had this serious relationship [with Jason] and obviously, I am hoping to have a family but I've also taken some of the pressure off myself as far as what that looks like,” she said. “I don't necessarily have to have the child myself — [I’m] open to adoption, things like that. And so I'm just kind of enjoying right now and having a lot of fun and dating.” Selling Sunset is streaming on Netflix. Scroll through for the biggest takeaways from the whole cast — including Heather Rae El Moussa (née Young), Maya Vander, Emma Hernan, Davina Potratz, Chelsea Lazkani and Vanessa Villela — from the reunion: (Christine Quinn and Amanza Smith were not in attendance after they both allegedly tested positive for COVID-19.

Who Is In Touch With Christine?

Maya revealed that she, Davina and Vanessa all called Christine after her broker’s open during the season despite her claims that she never heard from anyone again. Chelsea was then questioned about her friend's intentions. 

"I don’t take anyone's word verbatim,” Chelsea said, clarifying that she never necessarily believed Christine was telling her the “entire truth.”

When asked if Christine has apologized to anyone following season 5, Davina said she sent her two apology texts that week — which Davina didn’t accept.

“She said, ‘I realize I said kiss ass in that interview clip, not just to Amanza, and I apologize for that. I know it wasn't nice. It’s just I felt left alone when you and Emma became close and it was hurtful,' which is interesting because [Christine] told Maya that I shouldn't take the show serious[ly],” Davina said. “So I'm confused. What's really happening? And why is your personality inconsistent? …  It’s not OK to disrespect someone for six months and nonstop throw them under the bus and not tell the truth about certain things, and then possibly mislead somebody new.”

Jason, meanwhile, claimed he spoke to the man Christine allegedly paid off to not work with Emma.

“We’ve texted and we haven’t really addressed this situation,” he said. “Right now, there’s not a place for her at the Oppenheim Group. .. In the future, if she takes real estate seriously, if I can get an understanding of her perspective of things, if she changes her behavior, if she brings in a big listing, there’s a lot of reasons where I would consider her having a place at the Oppenheim Group, but I have to say, right now, there isn’t a place.“

Emma added, “We don’t speak. We’ve never had a relationship.”

Heather also still isn’t on good terms with Christine, noting she cut her out of her life because she wasn’t bringing her “joy.”

Maya Wants to Have Another Baby

News broke in December that Maya delivered a stillborn at 38 weeks, naming her son Mason.

“Apparently it was a freak accident. We got the autopsy report about a month ago,” the Miami resident explained. “It was just a bad accident with cord mixed with some shallowed placenta. But I'm getting much better. … I have two beautiful children and I'm very lucky and thankful for that, but I also lost one. So that void is still there and I think part of my healing is getting pregnant again and I really hope I will." 

Heather also touched on her and Tarek El Moussa’s IVF journey, confirming they have four embryos and know the sex but aren’t announcing anything at the moment.

Where Do Chrishell and Jason Stand?

Jason said he is still “in love” with Chrishell to “some degree,” which she hesitated to respond to when asked if she felt the same way.

“I actually came in today, feeling, like, really strong and confident about where we've been able to get our friendship,” she said during another segment about their breakup when Jason got choked up. “Obviously, Jason is not one to show emotion very often so that just completely caught me off guard so it makes it very difficult when you still have feelings there. It's easier to get over someone when they piss you off."

Chrishell Is Dating G Flip

"I recently have been spending a lot of time with someone that's very important to me. Their name is G Flip. They're nonbinary, so they go by they/them," the Under Construction author said of her “extremely talented musician” partner, adding they made the first move. "I think I was probably as surprised as anyone. Nothing's really changed for me, I'm still very attracted to masculine energy and a good human. I heard people talk about these things and they're like, 'I knew from a young age.' That's not me. I'm just, I'm very open to good energy. I don't know what my future holds. … I know being in this position, we get judged constantly, but at the end of the day, I'm so happy."

When Jason was asked for his reaction, he responded, "They seem like a badass, for one. And two, the smile that's been on your face the last couple [of] minutes makes me very happy. So I'm proud of you."

Did Tarek Really Compare Heather and Ex Christina?

When the host brought up Tarek's alleged outburst on set of Flip or Flop in 2021, asking, “Did he really call you a hotter, richer version of his ex-wife?” Heather smiled.

“I mean …” she repeated before Chrishell declared that they don’t want to tear another woman down — Christina Hall (née Haack) — to lift Heather up.

Jason Gets a Percent of Their Commission

When inquiring about why Mary and husband Romain Bonnet couldn’t afford a house when viewers see the cast make a lot of money on commission, Tan discovered that Jason gets a percent of the commission.

“Every agent has a commission split with their broker/brokerage,” he said before Chrishell confirmed that he doesn’t get the “bigger” amount.

Jason later revealed he believes he’s sold nearly $2 billion in real estate to date.

Emma’s Love Life

When asked about her relationship with Micah McDonald, who fans saw her date on the show, Emma responded, “[We have] a flirty, you know, connection.” While she acknowledged that she knows “everyone’s team Micah and Emma,” she called him a “good friend.”

Emma was also asked about matching with Ben Affleck on Raya.

“It was years ago and it couldn't have been any more innocent,” she said, claiming she and Chrishell “forgot the cameras” were rolling. “I will not let that happen again. But, you know, out of respect for a lot of people, there's not going to be much else about that.”

When Tan brought up the actor’s team’s statement — “Raya has confirmed that he has not been an active member for several years” — Emma got defensive.

“No, no, no, it just says ‘in years,’” she said, noting it was in 2019.

Emma is, however, still spending time with her ex-fiancé, Peter Cornell, who was linked to Christine in the past.

“I’m single, I don't have to answer to anybody. I'm living my best life. I might spend time with my ex. It might be fun,” she said, joking he “might have tested” her new flavor of empanadas. “We have not been boyfriend/girlfriend since I called off the engagement, however, have I've doubled it and went back for seconds? Yes. It doesn't mean we're dating. I could go on a date tomorrow and that could be my future husband.”
