Selling Sunset series eight has only been on Netflix a matter of days, but if you had any fear that the drama may be letting up this far along, we can confirm you have nada to worry about.
Believe it or not, everything started kicking off on Instagram ahead of Friday’s Selling Sunset release. It appeared that Nicole Young had said or done something at the end of the series that caused her feud with Emma Hernan, Chrishell Stause and Chelsea Lazkani to go into overdrive.
It all started when Chrishell shared her thoughts about a scene in the upcoming series after watching advanced screeners over the weekend. But in case you can’t wait to watch all of the episodes on Netflix to see exactly what went down, don’t worry, we’ve got you covered.
What's going on between Nicole Young, Chrishell Stause and Emma Hernan?
Chrishell and Nicole have been embroiled in a long-running feud since the latter joined the show in season six. But it appears to have reached the point of no return after Nicole made accusations about Emma Hernan, Chrishell’s best friend, leaving both Chrishell and Chelsea Lazkani raging on Emma’s behalf.
In episode eight, Nicole and Bre had a conversation about Emma and Chelsea, which culminated with Nicole alleging that Emma has had an affair with a married man. 'I think it's real interesting for Emma in particular to have comments about other people's marriages and get involved in any of that because I've heard some grey things in terms of that. So I would be careful in her position, because she's been involved with people she shouldn't have been,’ Nicole said.
Bre asked, ‘Married people?’, to which Nicole responded, ‘I wouldn't trust Emma with my husband.’
When Bre quizzed, ‘Not a husband snatcher?’ Nicole nodded her head.
The Nicole Young, Chrishell Stause, Emma Hernan and Chelsea Lazkani social media posts explained
Taking to Instagram ahead of season eight airing, Chrishell shared a series of stories writing, ‘Someone needs to take my phone [because] 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬. Are we really still giving airtime to LIARS that just want airtime??’
Chrishell then seemingly accused her rival Nicole Young of being said liar saying, 'I will NEVER work on a show with her on it again. I would rather be sued.’
She continued, ‘Disclaimer when you watch: Just know she spews a disgusting lie about a bestie that is categorically FALSE and SUPER damaging. It is NOT TRUE. [and] @done_and_done_productions you are disgusting for blindsiding [my friend] with this to see with the world instead of letting her at LEAST defend herself with the TRUTH.’
At first it was unclear who Chrishell was referring to as her ‘bestie’, but once Chelsea Lazkani took to her Instagram stories, all became clear.
Chelsea wrote, ‘Nicole Young, you are the most diabolical piece of [trash] I’ve ever met, you wanna start a rumour about Emma because all the rumours about you are true. OK, let’s see how this works out for you…’
And that’s not all! After Chrishell’s Instagram story expired after 24hrs, she was quick to continue calling out the situation and added more fuel to the fire with another Instagram story in which she called producers Adam Divello and Skyler Wakil as well as Nicole trash – accompanied by the SZA track I Hate U… Not exactly a subtle hint that she’s pissed off!
Chelsea shared another Instagram story too saying, ‘Hope everyone apart from Nicole Young has a great Sunday’ alongside a snap of her and Emma with the caption, ‘Protecting HER at all costs.’
Nicole then shared an Instagram story herself. ‘Instead of attacking me and accusing me of lying, I think you ladies need to ask your bestie some tough questions,' Nicole wrote on Saturday 31 August. 'Did she let you know she was directly confronted on camera at the season seven finale by the wife’s best friend? Even still, I stated this info as a rumour. And given both of you have been the victim of extramarital affairs, I would think you too would stand for the sanctity of marriage.'

For her part, Emma Hernan hasn’t commented on her supposed feud with Nicole Young.
