This story contains spoilers for Selling Sunset Season 8.

Selling Sunset is back on Netflix, and if you binged all 10 episodes over the weekend — same. By now, we know the drama is inevitable, but Season 8 still managed to surprise us with some wild twists we never saw coming.

Premiering on Friday, Sept. 6, Season 8 ties up some loose ends from last season, but it’s far from a smooth ride for the agents of The Oppenheim Group. The office gets even more heated as fresh feuds flare up between your favourite L.A. agents — Chrishell Stause, Chelsea Lazkani, Emma Hernan, Bre Tiesi, Mary Bonnet, Nicole Young, Amanza Smith, and, of course, Brett and Jason Oppenheim.

While we said goodbye to longtime cast member Heather Rae El Moussa in Season 7, this season introduces us a new face ready to shake things up.

Read on for a breakdown of the five biggest moments that Selling Sunset Season 8 delivered.

Bre Tiesi Learns Chelsea Lazkani’s Husband Is Cheating on Her

Bre Tiesi found herself in the middle of a jaw-dropping revelation involving Chelsea Lazkani’s marriage. In episode 3, Tiesi hears from a mutual friend that Lazkani’s husband, Jeff, was spotted “making out” with another woman at the W Hotel in Hollywood. Although the two have had their share of tension, Tiesi decides to inform Lazkani in episode 5. She reveals that her friend Amanda had text message “receipts” to back up the story.

Tiesi insists she had good intentions, but things spiral out of control when Chrishell Stause and Emma Hernan question her decision to bring up the topic on camera. Stause even confronts Tiesi, asking, “Can you clarify if the scene with Amanda was set up by you?” Frustrated by the accusation, Tiesi fires back, “Now I’m starting to get really f***ing pissed,” and tensions between the agents continue to escalate. Tensions rise, and by episode 7, Tiesi skips lunch dates and unfollows Hernan on Instagram, signalling that the drama isn’t over.

Are Selling Sunset‘s Chelsea Lazkani and Her Husband Still Together?

Are Selling Sunset's Chelsea Lazkani and Her Husband Still Together?

On March 27, 2024, TMZ reported that Chelsea had officially filed for divorce, citing ‘irreconcilable differences’ as the reason for the split. The legal documents reportedly show that Chelsea requested ‘joint physical and legal custody’ of their children, as well as ‘spousal support.’

While she didn’t specify the exact date of their separation, Chelsea did remove all traces of Jeff from her Instagram. It’s unclear if the divorce has been finalised. However, by the end of Season 8, Chelsea is shown removing her wedding ring during a confessional, saying, “I think this needs to come off. The foundation I built in Manhattan Beach is something I thought I would be building for years to come. I would have fought to the very end for my marriage.”

Nicole Young Claims Emma Hernan Was Involved With a Married Man

Nicole Young is no stranger to drama, but her latest revelation takes things to another level. In episode 5, while visiting Pioneertown with Gold, Smith, and Bonnet, Young hints that she heard something “morally upsetting” about Emma Hernan — but she keeps the details vague at first. Later, in episode 10, Young reveals what she heard: that Hernan had allegedly been involved with a married man.

“I did hear from a reliable source that Emma has likely had relations with a married man,” Young says in a confessional clip, adding that Hernan’s attitude about Chelsea Lazkani’s marriage troubles made the rumour even more shocking. Bre Tiesi is quick to chime in, saying, “Not a husband snatcher…” The rumour sends waves through the group, and even before the season aired, both Stause and Lazkani took to social media to defend Hernan, calling it a “damaging lie”.

A New Agent Shakes Things Up

Alanna Gold makes her debut this season, and she’s definitely not here to play. The 32-year-old Canadian agent reveals she owns Pioneertown, a functioning Old West town that was once a movie set. True to Selling Sunset style, she invites Mary Bonnet, Amanza Smith, and Nicole Young to experience it.

Gold quickly shows she can handle the competitive L.A. real estate market, even after losing a Manhattan Beach listing to Bonnet and Lazkani in episode 2. Later, she tackles a challenging Hollywood Hills property, proving her skills among the Oppenheim Group veterans.

Mary Bonnet and Chelsea Lazkani Face Off

One of the season’s biggest feuds kicks off right in the first episode when Mary Bonnet reveals she’s had a falling out with Chelsea Lazkani. The root of the conflict? Lazkani referred to Bonnet as “the biggest pot-stirrer in the office” during a social media Q&A. Things go from bad to worse when Lazkani sends Bonnet a text saying, “Keep my f***ing name out of your mouth.”

Tensions hit their peak in episode 3 at Amanza Smith’s birthday party when Bonnet tries to smooth things over with Lazkani, only for the conversation to turn into a screaming match. Even Bonnet’s husband Romain steps in, which only escalates the situation. By episode 4, the two agents repair their relationship during an emotional heart-to-heart. Lazkani apologises, and Bonnet sheds tears, leading to a bond over past traumas.

Mary Bonnet and Jason Oppenheim’s Dog Dies at 18 Years Old

In one of the most heartfelt moments of the season, Mary Bonnet and Jason Oppenheim say goodbye to their beloved dog, Niko, who passed away at 18 years old. The two have shared custody of Niko since their breakup. And Jason tearfully reveals in episode 8 that the dog’s kidney failure had left him with only days to live. Anyone else crying?

The agents come together to mourn Niko’s death. Jason and Mary host a touching memorial service, where they reveal they’ve both gotten tattoos using Niko’s ashes. However, more drama quickly overshadows the emotional moment as Bre Tiesi, Chelsea Lazkani, and the rest of the group escalate their feud over Lazkani’s husband’s alleged infidelity — right in the middle of Niko’s funeral. Bonnet is left “appalled” by her colleagues’ behaviour.
