The real estate agent had connections at Douglas Elliman and they presented her with an offer that she just couldn\u2019t refuse.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s not that I wanted to leave, but I had a great opportunity. It was a purely business decision,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>At the time, The Oppenheim Group boss Jason Oppenheim wished her well upon her departure.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDavina has always been a tremendous asset and a valued agent at the Oppenheim Group, and she is also a friend whose career decisions I very much respect and support,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, Davina wasn\u2019t gone for long \u2013 with the estate agent returning to The Oppenheim Group mid-way through season 4, although Chrishell admitted to <a href=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=V8qaAVZtbWY&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">Access Hollywood<\/a> last year that she wasn\u2019t thrilled about Davina coming back.<\/p>\n<p>When asked whether she was hopeful that Davina would return to The OG, she said: \u201cWell, actually the way things ended, I think it\u2019s the kind of thing where I wasn\u2019t. We didn\u2019t end it on a great place and a lot of time had passed between where we left off and we hadn\u2019t spoken. It was an uncomfortable place to be put into where okay she\u2019s coming back and cameras are here and this was in real time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She added: \u201cTo be quite honest with you, I wasn\u2019t happy or excited about it at first, I\u2019m just human. But I think you\u2019ll get to see we work through that and it\u2019s going to be on camera, but I do think we\u2019ve gotten to a place where like I said, I hope at the end of the day you can support each other and you don\u2019t have to be best friends with someone. At least if you can put your differences aside and have respect for each other then that\u2019s all you can ask for in a work setting.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"&quot;image-handler__container\"

Sunset<\/span><\/figcaption><span class=\"&quot;im-image-caption&quot;\"> <i>Netflix<\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<h2>Why did Davina return to The Oppenheim Group?<\/h2>\n<p>In season 4 of Selling Sunset, Davina tells Christine Quinn that the new development project she had been working on after quitting The Oppenheim Group had wrapped up and she was at a crossroads as to what she should do next, with Christine telling her she should come back.<\/p>\n<p>However, she expressed hesitation considering that she wasn\u2019t on the best terms with Jason Oppenheim when she left.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen I left the Oppenheim Group, there was a little tension because of what had happened with the $75 million listing because that didn\u2019t sell but I feel like [Jason] wasn\u2019t supportive from the beginning and it just didn\u2019t start off the best way.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Speaking to Jason, Davina said: \u201cYou know I left because of a new development opportunity at the other brokerage, but the job is completed, the consulting is all wrapped up and it was a very corporate environment and while I can easily function there, I do love the closeness and the access to you and just the camaraderie you have at the Oppenheim Group.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Will Davina be in Selling Sunset Season 5?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>As we saw in season 4 of Selling Sunset, Davina was mainly absent for the first few episodes but made a return to The Oppenheim Group mid-season, negotiating her return with Jason and Brett.<\/p>\n<p>When leaving ahead of season 4, she said that she \u201ccertainly hoped\u201d she would still be \u201cpart of the cast\u201d and she was! However, as she\u2019s now back with the agency anyway, she\u2019s sure to get some more screen time in season 5.<\/p>\n<div class=\"&quot;paragraph&quot;\">\n<p><strong>Selling Sunset seasons 1-4 are now available to stream on Netflix, with season 5 arriving on Friday 22nd April.
