So grateful for everyone involved, the list is long and you know who you are. The laughs, the lux, the drama, it’s all there in season 5 and I can’t wait for you all to see it!”
Chelsea didn’t know the other girls before she joined the show, but became good friends with Christine during filming, sayingL “I just adore Christine. We have such a great relationship.”
However, she won’t be taking sides when it comes to the girls’ drama, and stated she has made friends with everyone.
She added: “I’m like a lone soldier. I ebb and flow, and I don’t really move at those vibrations,’ she added. ‘I understand they may have had drama, but I am here to form my own unique relationships.
“Emma and I have a very special connection. I think the world of Chrishell. To be honest with you, I just have a budding relationship with all the girls. I’m still getting to know some of them, but I didn’t know them before the show.”
What can viewers expect from Chelsea on Selling Sunset?
According to Chelsea, season 5 is “So juicy, I will say it’s really electric. It’s nothing you’ve ever seen before on TV.”
Speaking in an interview, she added: “I think having the support of my husband and my family really essentially prepared me to take on this big role and this big opportunity. But for me personally, I saw this as an opportunity to really open doors in an industry that has lacked diversity and where minorities are underrated.
“I feel like with great opportunities comes great responsibility,’ she continued. ‘This was kind of my time to give back and to educate and really mentor and push forward Black women in this luxury sector in real estate. So just knowing that I’ve got a greater purpose kind of prepared me for this.”
