Stause simply captioned the post: “The JLo effect,” in reference to Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck rekindling their relationship 17 years since their initial split and posting pictures from a yacht in St Tropez.
Brett , who also stars on the Netflix series, commented on her post, writing: “Love you Chrishell. Thank you for making my brother happy.”
Selling Sunset fans have taken to social media to express their mixed emotions at the news.
