Selling Sunset season 8 aired all 11 episodes on Friday, September 6, 2024. The latest installment of the popular Netflix reality show saw cast members Chelsea and Bre at odds. The two, who were on bad terms last season, feuded again after the latter told Chelsea about her husband's alleged affair.

While Chelsea initially appreciated Bre telling her what she knew, she later questioned her motives. Emma and Chrishell, who were friends with Bre and Chelsea, approached the situation differently. While Emma cut Bre off immediately, Chrishell wanted to get more information.

On numerous occasions, she spoke to Bre about the situation, tried to advocate for her to Chelsea, and tried to mend Emma and Bre's strained friendship. Selling Sunset season 8 fans commented on Chrishell's behavior online, and were divided by it. While some felt she was being a good friend, others wished she hadn't interfered. One person wrote on X:

"I really need Chrishell to stop trying to kumbayah this Chelsea/Emma/Bre situation. Everybody ain’t gotta be friends with each other and that’s okay. Leave it alone already."
"Chrishell I beg, please just don't push Chelesa and Bre. Your uncomfortableness and people pleasing nature get in the way. Sometimes, everyone can't get along for several reasons. Let. It. Go. OAN, I was hoping to see more of Chrishell and G together this season," a fan commented.
"Chrishell better stop advocating for Bre. Bre already said how she is when it comes to her friendships with women. Emma has already stated how she felt. Just let it be," a tweet read.

Some Selling Sunset season 8 fans didn't think Chrishell did anything wrong:

"Now don’t care for bre but if I were also her friend, I’d also want to give her the benefit of the doubt especially since the whole thing was just a speculation at the time. I don’t think Chrishell really did anything wronggg," a person wrote.
"Chrishell is being real trying to be a friend and understand both sides. Emma trippn.. cause she was being friendly with Bre and then flipped without trying to understand and get to the truth of things. smh," a fan commented.
"Chrishell is doing what I would do. Still trying to remain friends with both. Of course she wants to give Bre the benefit of the doubt. She’s being fooled by Bre, but she didn’t know that yet!!" a tweet read.

Selling Sunset season 8 fans further said:

"Chrishell playing mediator between Emma & Bre is a little something. Tone deaf? Insensitive? Idk what exactly but I know the timing is off. Bre brought your good friend’s news to camera & it’s very fresh. Trying to repair Bre & Emma isn’t a priority," a person wrote.
"Chrishell is no one’s friend. #SellingSunset she’s doing way too much talking to Bre about something she knows was definitely meant to be delivered as intended. Messy!" a fan commented.

Selling Sunset season 8: Chrishell talks to Emma about Bre

In Selling Sunset season 8 episode 6, Chelsea, Emma, and Chrishell discussed Chelsea and Bre's conversation about Jeff's alleged affair. Emma and Chrishell, who were friends with Bre, wanted to know whether they could trust the latter and Chelsea suggested they call her.

Chrishell called the Selling Sunset season 8 cast member and informed her she was with Emma and Chelsea. She told her she didn't want to be "turned" against Bre without giving the latter a chance to explain. She asked Bre whether she "orchestrated" the conversation with Amanda.

Bre was offended by the allegation and didn't know what to say. Chrishell explained that sometimes things get "twisted" and that it would be better to talk to her directly.

Later, Emma and Chrishell discussed the situation privately. The latter stated she didn't think Bre was trying to "hurt Chelsea." When Emma said Bre could have stopped it, Chrishell noted there might be parts of the story they didn't know.

"I wanna give her the benefit of the doubt," Chrishell said.

The Selling Sunset season 8 star discussed the matter with Bre, and told her she hated being put in this position. She assured Bre she wasn't "accusing" her but wanted to know both sides of the story.

Fans of Selling Sunset season 8 reacted to Chrishell's role in the feud and were divided by her behavior. While some praised her, others felt she shouldn't have intervened.
