Selling Sunset returned for season 9 in October 2025, and as usual, there’s never a dull moment at The Oppenheim Group. In between managing luxury real estate deals for stars like JoJo Siwa and Tinashe, the show’s central cast of agents dealt with their fair share of drama. The season began with cast member Nicole Young being dismissed from the office after feuding with co-stars Chrishell Stause and Emma Hernan. But that was hardly the only feud: Mary Bonnet and Chelsea Lazkani fell out after Mary questioned how genuine Chelsea really was, and tensions flared between new agent Sandra Vergara and Chrishell after Chrishell’s assistant claimed that Sandra once keyed her car.
During filming, the cast was also rocked by the tragic January 2025 L.A. wildfires, which damaged or destroyed more than 18,000 residents’s homes. By the end of the season, the office’s star employees had firmly split into two separate friend groups, setting the stage for an all-out war in the future. By the end of the "brutal" season 9 reunion, battle lines were clearly drawn, and viewers were left wondering if the cast had hit a breaking point.
