Selling Sunset may be back and bigger than ever but it appears Netflix star Chrisell Stause is unhappy after Joey Essex made it into the final cut over singer-songwriter Tinashe.
Last Friday (September 6), the eighth season of Selling Sunset - the reality realtor TV series revolving around the Oppenheim Group - premiered on Netflix.
As well as tying up various loose ends from season seven, the 11-episode season saw fresh feuds flickering and some famous faces hunting for homes in Los Angeles.
Michelle Lally, 36, from Bravo’s The Valley was one of the celebrities making her Selling Sunset debut alongside The Only Way Is Essex star Joey Essex, 34.
Fresh from appearing on the 11th series of Love Island, Joey headed Stateside to meet with Chelsea Lazkani.

After touching down in Lalaland, he was shown around a jaw-dropping property worth around £4 million.
“My client said one word: sexy,” the 31-year-old listing agent told cameras of the reality star’s wants.
"He's from London, he's moving to LA, as you know when people move to LA they want to be in the Hollywood Hills with the views and they want to entertain.
"He's a single lad and wants to impress the ladies."

After viewing the home, Joey, who is now dating fellow Islander Jessy Potts, said: “Well I like it, you've got good taste. I'm happy you've shown me this place.”
It appears the Essex icon’s pop-up has disgruntled some fans as one Netflix viewer recently took to social media to write: “Not include @tinashenow but include Joey Essex from Towie whattttt.”
The Selling Sunset watcher is referring to 43-year-old Chrishell Stause’s claim that several scenes starring musician Tinashe had been left on the cutting room floor.

Last week, the actress shared a photograph of her and the 31-year-old with the caption: “These days of filming didn’t make it into season 8 of #SellingSunset so I can post them now.
“Thank you @tinashenow for being amazing! Happy to help you anytime again. Was sad it wasn’t included.”
Following the fan’s outrage that Joey had been included in Selling Sunset season eight while the ‘Nasty’ singer had been dropped, Chrishell commented: “HELP”, followed by a clown emoji.

However, it turns out Tinashe may not have been the only celebrity house-hunter to have been axed.
Chrishell claimed that her spouse G-Flip was also supposed to feature in an episode.
"@gflip thank you for opening up and filming with me @chelsealazkani & @emmahernan that day," she added.
"Was surprised where we are and where we’ve been in our family process didn’t make it,” she continued. “Very sweet of you to film for me even though I know you don’t love it. I love you."

30-year-old G-Flip and the Days of Our Lives actress have been romantically involved since May 2022.
A year after revealing they were an item during the 2022 Selling Sunset reunion, the pair tied the knot in Las Vegas.
Selling Sunset is available to stream on Netflix now.
