Chrishell Stause shocked her Selling Sunset cast mates when she confirmed in this week's reunion that she is in a new relationship after splitting from Jason Oppenheim.
Reunion host Tan France made all fans' questions were answered after a dramatic fifth season of the Netflix reality series, including the breakdown of Chrishell and Jason's relationship, and her new romance with Australian singer G Flip.
After fully dissecting their break-up in a surprisingly emotional scene, Chrishell opened up about the new connection she had made, revealing that she's "just kind of enjoying right now and having a lot of fun."

She began: "You guys just saw that I had this serious relationship and obviously I am hoping to have a family. But I've also taken some of the pressure off myself as far as what that looks like. I don't necessarily have to have the child myself. I'm open to adoption and things like that. I'm just kind of enjoying right now and having a lot of fun and dating."
When Queer Eye star Tan pressed her for more details, she stumbled over her words, telling him: "It's hard because it's not... Listen, you don't get to choose where you meet someone. You don't get to choose where you meet someone in their life. And so recently I've met someone that is in a different place in their life as well..."
Eventually, she came clean, revealing: "Okay, I recently have been spending a lot of time with someone that's very important to me. Their name is G Flip. They're non-binary so they go by they/them. And they are an extremely talented musician."
Chrishell shared that she and G Flip first met when she was asked to star in one of their music videos - a clip of which is shown later in the reunion.
Looking through some photos of Chrishell and G Flip, Tan commented that they were a "hot couple."
Asked how he felt about Chrishell's new love life, Jason told her: "They seem like a badass, for one. And two, the smile that's been on your face for the last couple of minutes makes me very happy so I'm proud of you."
Selling Sunset fans were moved both by Chrishell's excitement over her relationship with G Flip, and Jason's touching reaction.
"Chrishell coming out was not what I expected in this reunion but go her #sellingsunset" tweeted one viewer.
"Crishell being open to talking about her new relationship and exploring her sexuality is so brave of her and I think Jason is such a great guy for genuinely supporting her" another commented on Reddit.
Noting how supportive Chrishell's co-star Chelsea was following the reveal, one fan wrote: "Chelsea’s response to the reveal that Chrishell is dating G Flip was so nice (and needed imo). It seemed like a lot of others were in various states shock/processing or just kind of saying good for you but not saying much more than that (maybe they weren’t sure what to say)."
A second agreed: "I appreciated Chelsea noting how brave Chrishell was in being open and sharing this part of her life. Obviously even Chrishell doesn’t have it all figured out but it’s great to see her happy and I loved that Chelsea pointed that out. Side note: Chrishell really smiled like a fool when they showed the “prom pic” it was mad cute."
Elsewhere in the episode, Jason discussed the future of Christine Quinn, who failed to appear for the reunion.
Following this season's bribing scandal, Jason confirmed that "there’s not a place for her at The Oppenheim Group."
The reunion of Selling Sunset is available to watch now on Netflix.
