Netflix’s glam-packed real estate hit Selling Sunset is all about luxury homes, high-end fashion, and non-stop drama. But this time, fans aren’t talking about the listings. They’re buzzing about who’s missing.
Rumors are flying that Chelsea Lazkani, one of the show’s biggest scene-stealers, might’ve quietly bowed out.
Her no-show at the Season 9 premiere party, plus her rumored beef with a few castmates, has only turned up the heat. Here’s everything about what’s really going on with Chelsea and what it could mean for her future on Selling Sunset.
Has Chelsea Lazkani Exited Selling Sunset?
The chatter around Chelsea Lazkani’s rumored exit hit a new high. She was not seen at the Selling Sunset Season 9 premiere party hosted by Bre Tiesi.
What was supposed to be a celebration for the new season quickly turned into fan gossip central, all because of who wasn’t there. According to El-Balad, Chelsea and Chrishell Stause didn’t make the guest list because Bre wanted to keep things “drama-free.” Bre invited Nicole Young to the event, but she had to skip it because of a scheduling clash.
Fans immediately started talking after Chelsea’s no-show, wondering if she was officially bowing out of Selling Sunset. The rumors only gained traction after a drama-packed Season 9, where friendships cracked and tempers flared.
A lot of the tension centered around Chelsea’s falling-out with Mary Bonnet because of Chelsea’s bold, fashion-forward style choices. The rift expanded to include Emma Hernan and Chrishell Stause. By the end of the season, it was clear their friendships weren’t as close as before.
Beyond the on-screen drama, Chelsea has been open about how tough filming Selling Sunset has been on her emotionally. During Season 9, fans noticed she looked a bit different, and Chelsea later explained it was due to stress and burnout from balancing her personal life with the challenges of reality TV.
She also went through a public divorce from her ex-husband, Jeff Lazkani, last year, which only added to the pressure. After facing online criticism, Chelsea took to social media to confirm that she’s prioritizing her mental health.
Despite all the mounting speculation, Chelsea Lazkani hasn’t confirmed whether she’s officially leaving Selling Sunset.
Rumors suggest she still has ties to the show, but her future remains uncertain. Fans are keeping their eyes peeled for the big reunion episode coming on November 5. She’s expected to address the matter in that episode.
