Chrishell Stause is leaving Selling Sunset after nine seasons, she revealed in a Bustle<\/a> interview published Friday. She said Selling Sunset creator Adam DiVello has been calling and texting \u201c100 times a day,\u201d but even \u201cJesus Christ himself\u201d couldn\u2019t convince her to return for the show\u2019s tenth season.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019ve vacillated back and forth with this decision in the past,\u201d Stause said. \u201cI have to be honest \u2014 having come from nothing, it\u2019s really hard to turn something like this down.\u201d But things have changed for Stause since the show began in 2019. \u201cI\u2019ve gotten to a place where I don\u2019t need the show financially,\u201d she explained. \u201cI\u2019m lucky to have other forms of employment, because it\u2019s no longer good for my mental health.\u201d<\/p>\n Stause suggested her decision to exit the show was connected to her falling-out with her former\u00a0friend and co-star Emma Hernan. She repeated claims she first made in May about Hernan\u2019s boyfriend, Blake Davis, including that he\u2019s made derogatory comments about pronouns and supports using racial slurs. (Stause\u2019s wife, musician G Flip<\/a>, is nonbinary.) Davis denied Stause\u2019s claims, telling the Daily Mail<\/a> he \u201cdoes not use derogatory language about anyone\u201d and he has \u201crespectfully used the preferred pronouns\u201d for G Flip after Stause corrected him once.<\/p>\n In the Bustle interview, Stause also took issue with how the show\u2019s most recent season portrayed her conflict with Hernan amid Hernan\u2019s on-and-off relationship with Davis. \u201cThey would break up, and she would tell me these horrific things that he would say to her, that he would do,\u201d Stause said. She added that she understood why it was edited the way that it was, saying the showrunners want to \u201cmake a light show. And if I was doing a show with less problematic people, I can totally see their point.\u201d<\/p>\n For understandable reasons, Stause said she probably won\u2019t tune in if the show returns for a tenth season. \u201cIf they do continue, I wish them the best,\u201d she said. \u201cIf they do do another one, by then I may not watch it. I don\u2019t know. But I have no ill will toward the show. The show has given me so many opportunities, and I don\u2019t want to be bitter about it, even though I\u2019m leaving not in the way that I would\u2019ve loved.\u201d<\/p>\n Stay in touch.<\/p>\n Get the Cut newsletter delivered daily<\/p>\n Vox Media, LLC Terms and Privacy Notice<\/p>\n
