A brand new season of Selling Sunset is here, with the girls and twin bosses at the Oppenheim Group returning to sell more luxury property in the Hollywood Hills.

As usual, you can expect lots of drama and great fashion choices. This season, there’s also a brand new office, with the crew moving next door to a much bigger and fancier space.

As well as this, there’s a brand new face in town, with Cassandra Dawn joining the show.

Dawn makes her debut later in the season, and while Chelsea Lazkani immediately takes to her, former newbie Bre Tiesi isn’t best pleased, due to her and Cassandra’s history.

With the ongoing drama continuing in the office, could this spell the end of Bre’s time on Selling Sunset?

Elsewhere, Heather Rae El Moussa is on maternity leave, making only a few appearances for the new episodes.

As Selling Sunset returns to Netflix, read on for everything you need to know about the Selling Sunset cast, or check out our guides to how much the Selling Sunset agents make and whether Selling Sunset is real or scripted.
