Pregnant Chrishell Stause Faces Alienation in Lifetime’s ‘You're Not Meant to Belong’
Chrishell Stause shines as a pregnant woman on her serene babymoon in a secluded mountain village in Lifetime's captivating thriller, 'You're Not Supposed to Be Here'
Chrishell Stause experiences more than she expected during a babymoon gone wrong in Lifetime's upcoming film, You're Not Supposed to Be Here.
In an exclusive clip from the movie shared by We, Stause's character Zoe, who is pregnant, gets into a heated argument with her partner Kennedy (played by Diora Baird) on their final vacation before their baby arrives.
"I need some alone time, so I'm going inside. It feels even more lonely out here," Zoe expresses her growing frustration with Kennedy. "Must you always respond?"
Kennedy tries to convince Zoe to stay by her side. "Alright, fine. I'll put it away. I've finished. Please, just sit down," she pleads. "Please, my love, stay and sit."
The couple's peaceful moment is disrupted by a sound of movement emanating from the forest. To their surprise, Zoe and Kennedy discover that the residents of Wildwood have gathered to visit them, bearing unexpected gifts.

"We've brought some herbs from our community garden. They're for prenatal support since we heard you had trouble finding vitamins at the store," one of the locals informs Zoe, presenting her with a basket of unfamiliar items.
"You're Not Supposed to Be Here" is an upcoming LGBTQIA+ thriller that follows a pregnant couple's journey to a secluded mountain town for a babymoon. However, things take an unsettling turn when Zoe becomes uneasy with the way the townspeople are regarding her. Initially assuming it's due to being in a same-sex relationship, Zoe soon discovers that the locals have another agenda involving her.
The Lifetime movie features an ensemble cast including Curtis Hamilton, Heather Matarazzo, Devon Gummersall, Drew Powell, Jeante Godlock, and Alejandro Rosario. This project serves as Stause's second collaboration with the network following her return to acting. At the age of 42, Stause rose to fame portraying Amanda Dillon on All My Children from 2005 to 2011, and later made appearances on Days of Our Lives and The Young and the Restless.

Stause achieved great success in 2019 as she shared her journey in the real estate industry on Netflix's Selling Sunset. This reality show quickly gained popularity on the streaming service, and Stause has been an integral part of the series from the start.
After being honored in We's inaugural issue of Reality Stars of the Year, Stause reflects on her initial expectations when joining Selling Sunset.
"I had experience selling houses, but nothing on the luxury level that the show showcases. So I anticipated it would be primarily focused on that aspect. However, it unexpectedly became much more personal, which was a big surprise for me," shared Stause, who was recently crowned Us' Spitfire. "When things went beyond my control, I found myself diving headfirst into that. It wasn't something I would have consciously chosen, but in the end, it became something I fully embraced."
Stause, who is in a committed relationship with her partner G Flip, has found her confidence and satisfaction with the show. She expressed, "Connecting with people like this will always outweigh any negatives. It was worth it."
She further stated, "I am currently at my happiest. In the past, I would often doubt myself. However, I have reached a point where I say, 'screw it,' this is my life, and I will show it as it is, with all its good, bad, and ugly parts. Being able to live authentically, regardless of others' approval, has been incredibly liberating."
You’re Not Supposed to Be Here premieres on Lifetime Saturday, November 4, at 8 p.m. ET.
