Warning: This article contains spoilers for Selling Sunset

Selling Sunset is back on our screens again - and it's safe to say it landed with a bang.

The highly anticipated ninth season of the reality TV show dropped onto Netflix on Wednesday (October 29) and fans are already reacting to the unbelievable drama that's unfolded.

For those unfamiliar with the show, it follows the elite agents and brokers at The Oppenheim Group who sell the luxe life and multimillion-dollar listings to affluent buyers in LA.

However, it's absolutely jam-packed with drama as the agents compete with each other - think office rivalries, gossip, and a whole load of complex relationships.

And season nine has got off to a very theatrical start, with the drama coming to a head during model Amanza Smith's Friendsgiving dinner.

During the dinner party, Amanza addressed when Chrishell Stause accused Nicole Young of being on drugs and acting 'cracked out'.

Amanza defends Nicole, claiming Chrishell shouldn't have accused her of being on drugs back in season six, which she denies.

“Even if it was true?” Chrishell replied.

Which is when Nicole hit back with: “Honey, you’re confusing me with your parents. You seem to be obsessed with drugs."

As reported by Indy100, Chrishell's parents, Jeff and Renae, both died and she's previously detailed their battles with addiction.

As per Netflix Tudum, Nicole said: "Chrishell talked about her parents having struggled with drug addiction [during] her childhood. It was an aha moment for me, because it was like, ‘This seems like maybe her obsession with drugs has nothing to do with me. This might just be some unresolved, deep-seated issues from childhood’."

She added: "When the back-and-forth stuff started, I was just like, I’m going to stand up for myself at this moment. And I’m not going to be told to shut up and to stop speaking.

"I thought it would at least be like, ‘Oh.’ [A] stop-her-in-her-tracks kind of thing."

Nicole was told to leave the dinner party immediately by the group and Emma Hernan labeled Nicole 'sick and evil,' while bosses Jason and Brett asked her to leave the Oppenheim office.

However, she told Netflix Tudum: “That storyline was frustrating for me, because the truth of the matter is I was never fired from the office or The Oppenheim group.

"The realtors are independent contractors - they don’t clock in every day from nine-to-five. Not coming into the office and continuing to work and do business, that wasn’t a huge deal."

She also has no plans to apologise, telling the outlet she's 'content with where' she's at and she 'said her piece'.

Social media users have rushed to react to the eyebrow-raising moment, with one Twitter user reasoning: "I have mixed feelings about that Girlsgiving dinner. Chrishell started it. A girl can’t be thankful for her eyesight?…Damn

"She’s been calling Nicole a crackhead for 2 seasons now but when Nicole claps back, it’s evil? Also Amanza is a terrible host and friend #SellingSunset."

While a second added: "Nicole really just said Chrishell’s parents that passed away are drug addicts, get this weirdo off the show #SellingSunset."

And a third agreed: "Nicole coming for Chrishell is fine but coming for her deceased parents is NASTY as hell. Listen going low is one thing but that was disgusting fr. #SellingSunset."

Tyla has contacted a representative for Nicole for comment.
