The drama on Netflix’s Selling Sunset might have reached its season finale, but the aftershocks are still rumbling through social media. Recent revelations from Chelsea Lazkani have brought new twists to the ongoing storyline involving her estranged husband, Jeff Lazkani, and fellow cast member, Bre Tiesi.
In a candid post on X (formerly Twitter) on September 7, Chelsea Lazkani dropped a bombshell, admitting that she was behind the dramatic scene where Bre Tiesi alleged Jeff’s infidelity. This revelation not only sheds light on the behind-the-scenes maneuvering but also reveals deeper layers to the reality TV drama.
Chelsea, who has been embroiled in a highly publicized divorce from Jeff after seven years of marriage, confessed that she orchestrated the confrontation between herself and Bre. She explained that when Emma Hernan informed her about Bre’s scene with Amanda Lynn, which included claims about Jeff making out with another woman, she saw an opportunity for a compelling storyline.
“I thought about it and I said, ‘This is gonna be a storyline,’” Chelsea shared during an Instagram Live with Jessie Woo on September 9. “So I said to production, ‘I want Bre to tell me.’ The last thing I want is for it to go around to 10 other people at the office before it comes to me.”
Chelsea’s motivation for setting up this scene wasn’t just about stirring the pot; she aimed to expose what she saw as Bre’s attempt to fabricate a storyline and cast her friend Amanda on the show. According to Chelsea, Bre had initially planned to bring Nick Cannon onto the series, and when that didn’t pan out, Amanda provided the allegations about Jeff.
“She didn’t have a storyline,” Chelsea alleged. “Amanda called her off-camera, mind you, and gave her a bunch of allegations.”
This revelation not only adds a new layer to the Selling Sunset narrative but also highlights the lengths to which reality TV stars will go to craft their on-screen personas and storylines. As fans continue to dissect the drama, Chelsea’s admission offers a rare glimpse into the calculated decisions behind the show’s most explosive moments.
With no reunion special to revisit these revelations on-screen, it’s clear that the world of Selling Sunset continues to captivate and surprise, even off-camera.
