Chelsea Lazkani, who filed for divorce from husband Jeff Lazkani earlier this year, has spoken out about her divorce for first time since the announcement.

The 31-year-old Selling Sunset star - who was introduced to the Netflix series after joining in season five - ended her almost seven-year marriage with Jeff, 41, who she shares son Maddox Ali, 5, and daughter Melia Iman, 3, with back in March.

The pair met in 2015 on Tinder and, just two years later, tied the knot in August 2017 - but Chelsea later reportedly cited 'irreconcilable differences' as the reason behind the dissolution of marriage.

Chelsea has since shared an update with her fans about the breakup, telling Access Hollywood she was 'doing good' while on the red carpet at Netflix's Reali-tea event.

When asked how she was handling the divorce, she continued: "Ups and downs, take every day as it comes, but today I'm doing really good."

She also teased on whether her split from Jeff would be included in the upcoming eighth season of the reality TV show.

"You're going to have to watch it, aren't you?" she joked. "What do you mean, 'Will we see what happened?' What do you think I am? Think I started yesterday?'"

Last month (10 April), Chelsea shared a series of images to Instagram that also offered some insight into how she was feeling.

Alongside images of her looking beautiful with the caption ‘Fumbled’, and pictures with her kids, Chelsea posted a quote that reads: “One thing I’ve learned.. Life is a paradox.

“In order to heal you must hurt, in order to love you must break open and in order to have peace you must face chaos.

“Never regret any experience in your life, because it is always meant to bring you balance.

“The light always follows.”

Fellow Selling Sunset cast member and one of Chelsea’s best friends, Chrishell Stause, commented: “Every crown needs a bit of adjusting at times, but yours will never fall. You are a queen and no one can dim that light beauty.”

A fan wrote: “Proud of you always girl.”

Another chimed in: "Well said, life’s a journey, there’d be no peaks without valleys. Keep growing."

The mum-of-two also previously opened up about her relationship with Jeff during her career in the real estate industry.

Speaking to PEOPLE back in 2022, she shared: "I think having the support of my husband and my family really essentially prepared me to take on this big role and this big opportunity.

"But for me personally, I saw this as an opportunity to really open doors in an industry that has lacked diversity and where minorities are underrated."
