The Selling Sunset season 9 reunion went off the rails so fast that Tan France had to slam the brakes and order an emergency lunch break. What started as a chat about Chrishell Stause’s posts on Emma Hernan’s boyfriend, Blake Davis, turned into a shouting match that could probably be heard across Los Angeles. The show, known for mixing luxury listings with even pricier drama, hit a new high or low, depending on how you see it. Chrishell caught major heat from her castmates for dragging Blake online, even though she insisted she had her reasons.

Bre Tiesi came in swinging, saying Instagram wasn’t the place for friendship therapy. Things really went off the deep end when Chrishell brought up alleged texts about her partner, G Flip, and Bre fired right back. With insults flying and patience running out, Mary Fitzgerald stormed off the Selling Sunset reunion set first, then Amanza Smith, the Oppenheim twins, Sandra Vergara, and Alanna Whittaker all followed. By the time the dust settled, the set looked emptier than an open house on a Monday morning.

What caused the mid-air pause on Selling Sunset’s reunion episode?

At the Selling Sunset reunion, the cast cornered Chrishell about her Instagram posts dragging Blake, and things got awkward fast. She swore she’d already apologized, but the air was still thicker than LA smog. Her coworkers couldn’t wrap their heads around why she took her grievances to social media instead of just texting her best friend. Chrishell said she was calling out Blake’s alleged bad behavior, stuff about misogyny and rude remarks toward minorities, and felt it was too serious to stay quiet about. But her version of “necessary” didn’t sit right with everyone else.

Selling Sunset's Bre, never one to stay quiet, led the charge. She said blasting your best friend’s boyfriend online is a friendship foul of Olympic proportions. In her words, if you’ve got beef, handle it in the group chat, not in front of the internet.

She pointed out her own pattern of confronting people directly on the show rather than using external platforms. This claim immediately triggered Chrishell, who interrupted with allegations about text messages. Chrishell accused Bre of "speaking about her and G" in private messages. Bre fiercely rejected this accusation, insisting she actually prefers G-Flip over Chrishell. She claimed she has only said positive things about Chrishell's partner.

Chrishell struggled to clearly explain her point as the argument intensified. Both women eventually told each other to "f*** off" as civility completely broke down.

Bre shouted that Chrishell was "a f***** mean girl bully," marking the turning point where the situation became unmanageable. Mary Fitzgerald immediately stood up and declared she needed a break, calling the situation "f***** ridiculous." Amanza Smith quickly followed Mary out, stating off camera that she couldn't be associated with "any of this f***** b*****." Her departure signaled that the conflict had gone too far.

How did the mass walkout pan out?

As Chrishell and Bre continued their heated exchange, more Selling Sunset cast members made their exits. Jason and Brett Oppenheim, the brokerage owners, walked off along with Sandra Vergara and Alanna Whittaker.

The unprecedented mass departure left host Tan France with no choice but to intervene. He announced they would stop for a lunch break, attempting to restore order to the chaotic situation. Chrishell casually suggested finishing the discussion later as she left, while Bre responded:

"I can't wait."

Off-camera, Bre continued berating Chrishell, calling her a "psycho b****" as tensions remained unresolved heading into the forced intermission.
