The real estate agent, who is Nigerian and British, is the latest person to join the cast Emma Hernan and Vanessa Villeladebuts in season 4. Season 5 of the Netflix hit will also feature the reruns of fan favorites Chrishell Stause, Christine Quinn, Heather Rae Young, Mary Fitzgerald, Amanza Smith, Maya Vander, Romain Bonnet, Davina Potratzand of course the co-founders of Oppenheim Group Brett and Jason Oppenheim – of which the latter is likely to come to the forefront for much of the season as his romance (and subsequent breakup) with Chrishell unfolds before the camera.

“Mary works really hard, sometimes too hard on small deals. I say, ‘Take it easy,'” the reality star said. Us Weekly exclusively in December 2021. “Chrishell works really hard. Yes, I would say Mary, Chrishell and Emma. But I mean, I can not rank the full [team]. … I’m not surprised at how good [Emma] did [in the office]but I’m very happy with how she did on camera [and] turned off the camera. I think she is a very impressive woman. ”
In addition to being the latest addition to the cast, Chelsea are also a newcomer to the Oppenheim Group as a whole, having spent his first years as a real estate agent at another LA-based agency. She was introduced to Jason by her husband, Jeff Lazkani.
