Newly single Selling Sunset star Chrishell Stause has sparked rumours of a romance with TOWIE’s Pete Wicks after eagle-eyed fans spotted them engaging in some rather flirty behaviour on social media.

Chrishell and Pete have been liking a number of each other’s Instagram posts, with the real estate agent-turned-reality star leaving a cheeky comment on Pete’s latest smouldering snap.

After the Essex lothario shared a brooding black and white modelling shot with the caption, “’The loudest one in the room is the weakest one in the room...’ - American Gangster,” Chrishell joked, “Is this a dig at Sam 🤣🤣😜,” referring to his BFF Sam Thompson.

Pete’s followers were surprised at his connection to Chrishell, with one writing, “I’m kind of blown away that @chrishell.stause knows who Pete & Sam are 😆.”

Another hinted at the potential reality romance as they added, “Hmmm I think she likes Pete.”

Why we're sold on Selling Sunset

City of stars

When the likes of J-Lo and Nicole Scherzinger are on your books, there's no time to be starstruck. But that's not a problem when the brokers have starry connections of their own. Chrishell was married to This Is Us' Justin Hartley (sore point – he dumped her during filming), and was herself a daytime soap actress before getting her realtor's licence, while former NBA cheerleader Amanza dated actor Taye Diggs. Because this is Hollywood, most of the ladies working at Oppenheim are ex-models and actresses, and Heather was a Playboy Playmate.

Bosses with benefits

You might think it's awkward to work for your ex-boyfriend, but Mary has no such problem with Jason, who co-owns the brokerage with his twin brother Brett. In fact, the cast don't just work together, they play together, and often launch into all their personal dramz during office hours. The scandal of it all! But when they're not hugging and kissing, they're destroying each other with the bitterest war of words. At this point, we've honestly lost count of how many people Christine's fallen out with.

Jaw-dropping digs

If that $44m property we mentioned is a bit modest for you, how about a $75m house, with nine bedrooms, 12 bathrooms and, of course, its own helipad? And it's not just the buyers and sellers who are rolling in dough – when the property price is so high, an agent can expect to earn over a million dollars in commission alone! Guess that's how they can afford all those Ferraris and Louboutins...

Queen of mean

All hail Christine, the self-appointed MVP of Selling Sunset. Christine doesn't do subtlety – her couture outfits, cutting put-downs and claws-out catfights are so extra, they deserve their own spin-off series. Let's not forget, this is the lady who said she wanted a very "casual" engagement party... "with a sexual Phantom Of The Opera theme, a zebra, and Cirque du Soleil performers hanging out in the back." She also doesn't bite her tongue when it comes to having it out with her co-workers and making them earn their keep. Remember when she said that new girl Chrishell should "sit on the floor until she proves herself"? We love her and hate her all at once.

Work hard, play hard

Honestly, zebras are small fry when it comes to Christine's wedding, which included chocolate gargoyle table settings, fake snow falling as she walked down the aisle, and four live swans. But it's not just the private functions that push the invite envelope – imagine going to an open house that offers free burgers and Botox upon arrival.

Cut-throat clients

No one has more exacting standards than a client at The Oppenheim Group. And why shouldn't they? They've got money to burn and future house guests to impress. We particularly enjoy Alexandra, the monotone, impossible-to-please app entrepreneur, who gives Chrishell a major ticking off when she doesn't meet the brief, telling her, "My time is important." Special mention goes to Kim Kardashian's frenemy Larsa Pippen, who complains that a walk-in closet the size of our flat isn't big enough. Worse, there isn't parking space for her 12 cars.

Chrishell also appeared on Pete’s podcast Just A Little Prick last month, where he described her as “a warm, lovely and beautiful person with a bit of a wild side.” Sounds like just his type tbh…

The Netflix star clearly enjoyed her time on the show as she later told Pete, “Awww you are the BEST. ALWAYS a great time talking to you, happy we are bonded over some questionable ink.”

Selling Sunset: how much commission they REALLY make

Chrishell recently exposed the dramatic truth behind her split from boyfriend of three months Keo Motsepe after he was reportedly left “heartbroken” by their break-up.

She clapped back on Instagram after a source told PEOPLE, “He's had a tough time with his mom's passing, but he really wanted to make his relationship with Chrishell last.”

Chrishell fumed, “Ok I TRULY wanted to keep this drama free, but playing the victim and bringing your mom into it is a step too far for me. Taking the high road is overrated sometimes!! I was also 100% in it as well, until revelations told to me recently have made me question if you could even order a coffee without lying.”

And when a fan accused her of being “childish”, she added, “When you are the ass in the breakup & then the other person tries to let you save face and take the high road publicly... probably best not to poke a bear holding receipts. I will try to be a better person tomorrow. Today wasn't the day.'
