The season 7 reunion of Selling Sunset was packed with shocking revelations, intense arguments, and thrilling glimpses of what's to come. Netflix brought together Chrishell Stause, Mary Fitzgerald, Brett Oppenheim, Jason Oppenheim, Amanza Smith, Emma Hernan, Chelsea Lazkani, Bre Tiesi, Nicole Young, and Romain Bonnet to delve into the intense drama showcased in the latest episodes.
Tan France, from Queer Eye, served as the moderator for the reunion. The event featured notable guest appearances by Jason's ex-girlfriend Marie-Lou Nurk and the cast of Selling the OC. Heather Rae El Moussa was absent because she had previously stated that she wasn't invited to film following the birth of her son Tristan in January. Chrishell confirmed that production for season 8 would begin shortly. In the meantime, here are the key highlights from the Selling Sunset season 7 reunion.

During season 7, Bre revealed that she previously hooked up with Michael B. Jordan.
During the special, Bre was connected to a lie detector and queried about the actor's performance in bed. She honestly stated that he was not satisfying. Polygraph examiner John Grogan verified Bre's truthfulness, leading her to apologize and acknowledge that her response dashed numerous girls' hopes.
Jason Oppenheim’s Feelings for Chrishell Stause
Jason Oppenheim was confronted with a difficult question during his encounter with the lie detector, just like Bre. Tan questioned him about his feelings for Chrishell, asking if he was still in love with her. Although Jason denied it, the lie detector test suggested otherwise.
Earlier in the special, Jason hinted that he was currently speaking to a 29-year-old woman from Vancouver.

In regards to the possibility of returning to the real estate company, Bre expressed uncertainty. During season 7, Bre alluded to her departure when she confronted Jason about an improved commission split, but he rejected the idea. In the final moments of the season, tensions escalated between Bre, Chelsea, and newcomer Cassandra Dawn, leading to a heated argument before Bre stormed off.
Chrishell Stause and Marie-Lou Nurk’s Confrontation
Despite their on-screen disagreements, Marie-Lou made a brief appearance at the reunion and insisted that she had no problems with Chrishell. "Chrishell was merely a subject for the cameras. Our relationship was incredible," Marie-Lou commented, specifically referring to her and Jason's love for each other.
Chrishell was disappointed with how Marie-Lou downplayed the drama after publicly expressing feeling threatened and bullied on the show.
"Do you understand why this is an issue for me? I am being discussed and attacked on camera," the actress expressed. "I am tired of being the subject of conversation and the target of others on camera. It is clearly not an enjoyable position to be in. That is why I became so frustrated with everyone who confronted me this season."
Nicole Young’s Problematic Social Media Interactions

Ahead of the reunion, Nicole responded to a comment from a viewer on Instagram who referred to Chrishell as the “lesbian chick.”
The troll expressed their desire for the absence of the lesbian individual, referring to Chrishell's partner, G Flip, from appearing on the screens this season. "I forgot her name, whatever it is. Nicole, you look fantastic!" they added.
Nicole graciously responded with a "thank you" to the social media user, but her fellow cast members criticized her for potentially displaying homophobic behavior.
“There is absolutely no credibility to that statement. It is highly dangerous and irresponsible to make such accusations,” Nicole responded, asserting that she only supported the aspect of the comment pertaining to her own appearance.
Nicole also gave her perspective on Chrishell's statements about altering her facial features on camera, stating, "I had veneers done prior to filming. I received my routine Botox injections, as I always do, and I opted to dissolve the filler in my face. Therefore, I did not undertake any drastic changes to my facial appearance."
The ‘Selling the OC’ of It All
Polly Brindle, Gio Helou, Brandi Marshall, Jason Oppenheim, Alex Hall, Austin Victoria, Kayla Cardona, Brett Oppenheim, Alexandra Jarvis, and Tyler Stanaland were featured in a special cameo by Tan, taking a break from the Selling Sunset drama.

In the preview clip, the budding romance between Alex and Tyler Stanaland encountered an unforeseen twist.
"You completely captivated me, and then you just vanished," Alex expressed to Tyler, who countered, "What are you expecting from me?"
Tyler, who is no longer with the Oppenheim Group, expressed in the trailer that he is seeking a committed partnership. "In a few weeks, I'll be turning 34. I desire a relationship like yours, with a spouse and children," he stated after his widely publicized involvement with Brittany Snow.
Alex mentioned that she lost touch with Tyler. "I am currently unable to contact him on Instagram. It seems I have been removed from his circle," she disclosed. "Polly was the one who informed me."

During the lie detector test, Jason initially stated that the only women he had been involved with from the office were Chrishell, Mary, and Nicole. Nonetheless, his facial expressions portrayed a contradictory narrative.
Intervening in the conversation, Amanza questioned, "Is it because I have made out with Jason? We have been friends for 23 years." In response to Tan's inquiry about whether Amanza solely engaged in kissing with Jason, she denied it. However, when he asked if they had actually "hooked up," she admitted to it.
Chrishell Stause and Amanza Smith’s Offscreen Issues

The pair figured out their differences in the season 7 finale but their feud was reignited off screen.
Amanza explained that Chrishell approached her and asked if she could provide compensation for the time and effort Amanza had dedicated to designing G's workspace. Amanza mentioned that the amount she requested to be compensated was the same amount she wrote to Chrishell.
According to Amanza, she asked for $11,500 for the design work she had done for G Flip's work studio. However, Chrishell offered $5,000, which Amanza found offensive. Despite her offense, Amanza ultimately accepted Chrishell's offer. The reunion concluded with a hug between Chrishell and Amanza.
