While Selling Sunset season 3 featured Christine Quinn's wedding and Mary Fitzgerald buying a house, Chrishell Stause's divorce from Justin Hartley took centre stage.

Viewers watched as details about their split emerged, and Chrishell's real estate agent colleagues rallied around her as she moved out of the marital home and came to terms with what was happening. Well, er, most of them did.

Davina Potratz was somewhat questioning of Chrishell's suggestion that she was "blindsided" by the divorce, making it clear that she wasn't going to immediately take her side.

During episode seven when the team were discussing the divorce being a shock to Chrishell, Davina says in the cutaway, "Mary and Amanza are die-hard Chrishell, and that's fine. I would love to support Chrishell. But I have met Justin before. Justin was nothing but a gentleman to me. He was kind and polite.

"[Chrishell must have] known things were probably not going well."

She later says, "He has to have a side of the story."

After fans were critical of Davina's lack of support for Chrishell, the Selling Sunset star has spoken out to defend herself. "I’m certainly compassionate towards Chrishell," Davina told Metro.

She continued, "Since I had no information and I was pressed to take a stand. I didn’t mean to defend Justin in any way and not support Chrishell, that was not my intention at all. Just because I’m neutral it does not mean I don’t support her and I absolutely do support her."

Addressing where their friendship is at now, Davina added, "We’re at a great place. We’re very friendly and we’re texting. There’s no hate, only love. We are a family in the end."

Sounds like there's no bad blood in the world of Selling Sunset. For now.
