Selling Sunset's Bre Tiesi Teases Cast Changes Amid Christine Quinn Rumors

Christine Quinn isn’t returning to Selling Sunset as-is.

In fact, the 37-year-old says she’s undergone some renovations since she parted ways with the Netflix reality series after season five in 2022. Not only has she gone through a contentious divorce with ex-husband Christian Dumontet, but she’s also made a new life for herself away from Los Angeles in Texas—all of which has brought her to where she is now.

"This isn’t a rewind, it’s a reintroduction,” Christine she told Netflix’s Tudum in an interview published April 29. “I’m returning from a very different place, with more perspective, confidence, and clarity.”

And some of that clarity has come from being mom to her and Christian’s 3-year-old son Christian Georges Dumontet.

“Motherhood has a way of sharpening your priorities and changing how you move through the world,” she said. “I’ve become more intentional and much more protective of my peace.” 

But this is not to say she’s planning on shying away from conflict in season 10. 

“I’m still ambitious and direct, but I think people will see a version of me that’s more centered and even more sure of herself,” Christine promises. “I’m hoping this chapter feels fresh and honest. I’m not coming back to play an old version of myself. I’m coming back to show where I am now and let the audience see that growth can still come with an edge.”

And Christine isn’t the only former Selling Sunset star returning for the series’ 10th installment: She’ll be joined by Heather Rae El Moussa, whose life with husband Tarek El Moussa has continued to reshape her since she left the show after season six. 

“I’ve become a mom, a wife, a business owner, and I finally feel secure enough in who I am to walk back into that world and not lose myself in it,” she told Tudum. “I’m calmer, more grounded, less reactive. I know what I want, and I’m not afraid to say it.”

The 38-year-old—mom to Tristan, 3, with Tarek, and stepmom to his and Christina Haack’s kids Taylor and Brayden—is excited to let fans see the life she’s built.

“Tarek and I have settled into something really beautiful together. We’re solid, we’re happy,” she said. “I want people to see the full picture of who I am now. Not just the dramatic moments, but the real life I’ve built.”

Yet, both she and Christine are coming in with years of history—and drama—between themselves and the other Selling Sunset cast members.

As Heather teased, “There are conversations that got cut short. I’m also not going to pretend things didn’t happen.”

While additional details on Selling Sunset season 10 remain in escrow with Netflix, there’s plenty of TV to look forward to in the meantime. Read on for more.
