Selling Sunset's Mary reveals what fans can expect from series 4 👀
AND WE CAN'T WAIT!
After months of waiting for official confirmation of a brand new series of Selling Sunset, Netflix bosses dropped the amazing news that fans can expect a fourth and fifth series later in the year!
The show has become massively popular with reality TV fans over the last two years, with series 3 showcasing THAT amazing wedding between Christine Quinn and Christian Richard, and the break down of Chrishell Stause's marriage to Justin Hartley.
A lot has happened since series 3 landed on Netflix back in August 2020, including an engagement for Heather Young, baby news for Christine Quinn, and a new relationship for Chrishell, which has since ended with a LOT of drama.
With fans patiently waiting for series 4 to drop, our friends over at heatworld caught up with BFFs Mary Fitzgerald and Jason Oppenheim, where they spilled the deets about the upcoming new series and the latest beef with co-star Christine.
Speaking about what fans can expect from the new series, Mary said, "I think you guys will see a lot more gorgeous, gorgeous real estate, probably some pretty big deals that are going to happen, we've got some things in the pipeline.
"Christine is having a baby, Heather is getting married, Romain and I are moving into this new house and planning to make some property investments."
Confirming the news that The Oppenheim Group are opening up a new office, Jason added, "I'm still single! But we are opening a new office in Newport Beach."
Mary also chatted about her romance with French hunk Romain, admitting they might start a family later down the line.
She said, "I don't know what our plan is going to be moving forward. It wouldn't be for another couple of years because we are just enjoying our time together and just enjoying this whole experience with Selling Sunset and just being newlyweds.
"I think we are just focussing on that right now and just enjoying our life together and then we will freeze the embryos so that option is there if we ever want it, but that would be up to him. I would only be doing it because I don't want him to miss out on that experience, but I don't feel like I personally need another child to make myself content."
Speaking about Christine's pregnancy news, Jason and Mary shared their thoughts on how 'extra' of a mum they think she's going to be.
Jason said, "I'm quite interested in how she balances that to be honest. I want to meet the kid and I want to see how it that goes. She's got a lot of love and I think it will go well, but I don't think anyone can prepare for that, that's just overwhelming."
Admitting she thinks it will make her co-star a 'better person', Mary added, "Christian has enough money that she will have plenty of help. I think she will handle it well, hopefully it will ground her, and I think it will make her, like it does most people, a better person where you focus on another being.
"I'm sure Christine will always be extra but I personally think even though publicly she's still super over the top, I think personally it will ground her a little more."
Although Mary admitted she's not spoken to Christine much over the last few months, the 39-year-old has confessed she congratulated her by sending a private voice-message, despite rumours suggested Mary and Chrishell chose to ignore the news.
Check out the best facts about Selling Sunset:
1. The Oppenheim Group actually has 17 agents
Although Mary, Chrishell, Davina, Maya, Heather, Emma, Nicole, Bre, Amanza and Chelsea all feature as real estate agents on the show, there's actually four other agents at the business - these are Peter Cornell, Alice Kwan, Omar Abaza, Alexander Huerta, Romi Jordan Mouillon, Kane Lim, and Minoo Malek.
2. Romain used to be a pastry chef
French model Romain Bonnett, who married Mary Fitzgerald on season 2 of Selling Sunset, actually used to work as a pastry chef!
Back in 2019, he wrote on Instagram: 'Since so many asked me if it was true that I was a pastry chef, here is some of the pasty I used to make. YES IT WAS TRUE !!! 😜😬'. (sic)
3. Selling Sunset is created by the same man who created The Hills
Yes, that's right! The Hills producer Adam DiVello is the creator of Selling Sunset - that guy certainly knows how to make great TV!
4. Jason once had Orlando Bloom's house on his books
The Oppenheim Group's President Jason Oppenheim has worked with some major stars over the years! Not only has he sold houses for the likes of Alex Rodriguez and Lea Black, he was also selling Orlando Bloom's house!
He told us in 2019: "My favourite guy that I worked with is Orlando Bloom. But that's why I'm selling his house right now because he's going to be a dad. So families and marriages are good for real estate."
5. Mary has a son called Austin Babbitt
Selling Sunset fans met Mary Fitzgerald's son during season 2 of the show in 2020, when Austin walked his mum down the aisle for her wedding to Romain.
6. Chrishell was once engaged to Matthew Morrison
Before marrying (and then divorcing) American actor Justin Hartley, Chrishell Stause was once engaged to Glee star Matthew Morrison.
The couple first met way back in 2006, with a proposal coming just months later. However, things didn't work out and the pair called time on their romance in December 2007.
7. Heather is now married with a baby
After announcing her new romance with Tarek El Moussa during season 2 of Selling Sunset, just weeks before season 3 hit Netflix, Heather Young announced Tarek had popped the question to her!
In October 2021, the pair tied the knot at a luxury ceremony surrounded by their friends and family, including Heather's Selling Sunset co-stars, with footage being shown in series 5.
Heather and Tarek then welcomed a baby boy called Tristan in January 2023.
8. Christine didn't meet her husband by selling him a house
Although season 2 of Selling Sunset seemed to document that Christine Quinn met her husband Christian Richard whilst selling him a house, it turns out the pair actually met through mutual friends.
During an interview on This Morning with Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield, she said: "Well actually, that was amped up a little, I'm not going to lie. I actually met him through a girlfriend of mine, but Mary spun this story that he was a client.
"We were dating for three months and then we bought a house together, but television is fun."
9. Chrishell wasn't part of The Oppenheim Group before Selling Sunset
She's a valued member of the team now, but Chrishell Stause actually only joined the real estate agency when she was signed to appear on the show.
Selling Sunset creator Adam DiVello said at the time: "She really is a realtor and has a real estate license selling homes when we met her.
"I think we were lucky to get her, I think she adds something that is very unique to Los Angeles, and we're doing a show about realtors in Los Angeles. The fact that we have one who's an actress and happens to be married to an actor who's on a very successful TV series is a plus."
10. Mary actually sold a house on her wedding day
As viewers witnessed in season 2, Mary Fitzgerald doesn't stop work for anything... Even her own wedding!
Whilst getting her hair and make-up applied on her big day, Mary took time out to show round a buyer of the stunning house she was using for her venue.
She later told People magazine: "I end up selling my wedding venue on my wedding day, which was amazing. I paused the wedding and sold it in the middle of getting ready.
"Everyone thought I was out of my mind, but I told the seller when he allowed me to book it for the wedding venue that I won't let the wedding planning or doing it there get in the way of selling it!"
11. The Oppenheim Group now have a Newport Beach office and it's got a spin-off show
At the start of January 2021, Jason Oppenheim confirmed the group have now opened a office in Newport Beach.
In a post on Instagram, he said: 'I'm very proud and excited to announce our new Oppenheim Group office in Newport Beach!! After many years of contemplation, my love for Newport Beach and its exciting real estate opportunities have convinced me to go for it! And if you're going to go, go big, so I found a 4,000 sq. ft. former bank and we are renovating it now - it's going to be the coolest office anywhere, with a full bar, living room, dining area, arcade, pool table, gym, showers, kitchen, vault with whiskey/wine, coffee bar, walls of contemporary art, books, and vintage boom boxes, and who knows, maybe even some desks! Give me a few weeks and I'll post the interior photos 😀'.
It was then confirmed in November 2021 that Selling Sunset will be getting a spin-off show for the new office, called Selling The O.C. - this then aired in August 2022.
Other spin-off shows including Selling Tampa.
12. Emma Hernan once qualified for the Olympics
In series 5, Emma casually dropped the fact she'd once swam a time that would have qualified her for the Olympics! However, she gave up swimming when she was 16 to focus on modelling.
13. The cast pay for their own hair, makeup and wardrobe
You've probably noticed the Selling Sunset girls always look absolutely flawless, dripped head-to-toe in designer gear, but Netflix don't actually pay for any of this!
14. Chrishell Stause and Christine Quinn used to be friends
Despite their now on-going feud, Chrishell Stause and Christine Quinn actually used to be friends - this was until producers pitted them against each other.
Christine once said: "They wanted us to clash obviously and at first, we didn't. We got along great. We were friends. She was at my house. We were drinking, having a good time. I was getting to know her and the storylines came into play. We thought that we were good at separating things."
Series 4 of Selling Sunset is expected later this year. Whilst we wait, you can binge series 1-3 on Netflix now.
