Just hours after the new season of Selling Sunset started streaming, Chrishell Stause addressed Nicole Young‘s comments about her late parents.
“Your favorite train wreck is now streaming!” Chrishell, 44, wrote via Instagram on Wednesday, October 29, alongside stills from the season 9 scene. “This year for Girl’s Giving we are serving c***.”
Chrishell acknowledged that Nicole, 39, “brings out the worst” in her. “The build up clearly had to be condensed down,” she continued. “I didn’t bring the stupid drug thing up, but defended not lying and it escalated from there. Information was shared with me by another cast member that I brought up in the heat of the moment that I shouldn’t have.”
The scene in question is a dinner party gone wrong where Chrishell brought up previous allegations about Nicole’s alleged drug use.
Breaking Down Timeline of Chrishell, Nicole’s Ongoing ‘Selling Sunset’ Feud
“Honey, you’re confusing me with your parents, OK?” Nicole fired back. “You seem to be obsessed with drugs.”
Chrishell’s costars were quick to jump on Nicole for her remarks, saying she crossed a line by bringing up Chrishell’s late mother and father. Nicole stood by her statement, saying on the show, “She’s talked about [her parents] being addicts. It is OK for me to continually be called a drug addict. You talked about your parents doing drugs.”
Nicole was later put on pause on and off screen after Jason Oppenheim dismissed her from the office. She reappeared at the end of the season to tell Mary Bonnet she was moving to Nashville with her family.
Before the season premiered, Us Weekly confirmed that Selling Sunset had to hit pause on filming due to issues between Nicole and Chrishell.
“I had a call with production two days ago during which they told me I have absolutely not been fired from the cast but they chose to pause my filming schedule until next week in order to protect me from situations on set that had become very contentious,” Nicole told Us in a statement in January. “I’m still debating whether or not I want to continue filming in this kind of environment, especially with so many infuriating double standards.”
Nicole added: “Selling Sunset has been a great opportunity and a wild ride, but it is not my life or identity. I have a big, beautiful life outside of the show…and thankfully in the real world, my life and personality can’t be edited or misconstrued to portray me negatively to fit into a produced storyline.”
‘Selling Sunset’ Stars Who Left the Series: Where Are They Now?
On Wednesday, Chrishell made it clear that she isn’t ashamed of anything from her or her parents’ pasts.
“I would gladly free base off my desk if I never had to talk about this again,” she continued on Wednesday. “I want to dedicate this season to my parents. Because of what was said, they are brought up in every interview that I do. They were such bad asses, and would be very proud of me. (Yes even after this dinner).”
Chrishell’s adoptive father, Jeff, died in April 2019, and her mother, Ranae, died in July 2020 after individual battles with lung cancer.
“My mom would have had some choice words for a few people, and we would have laughed,” she concluded. “Thinking of that makes me smile, and I just want to add a positive memory to the conversation if they are going to be discussed.”
Selling Sunset is currently streaming on Netflix.

The Valley’s Jesse Lally and Michelle Saniei agreed in their divorce settlement that they are both successful on their own and do not need each other to provide support, Us Weekly can exclusively report.
Us obtained the settlement submitted to the court on Monday, October 27. Per the deal, the parties agreed that irreconcilable differences had arisen between them that made the marriage impossible.
The exes will share custody of their daughter, Isabella, with each parent having two uninterrupted weeks at a time. Both agreed to work together on decisions for Isabella’s schooling and medical decisions. Saniei will have Isabella on her birthday, and Lally, 43, will have their daughter on his, per the agreement.
“The custodial parent shall have the discretion to determine Isabella’s attendance at social events during their custodial time,” the deal said.

In addition, Lally and Saniei agreed that neither party will pay child support. They will split any health insurance–related expenses. The exes will also share the costs of bills related to their daughter’s ballet and gymnastics.
Regarding spousal support, both parties agreed neither should receive a monthly alimony check due to both being financially successful.
“Taking into consideration all relevant facts and circumstances of the respective Parties, neither spouse seeks or requires of the other any permanent spousal support now or in the future. Due to the respective financial circumstances of the Parties, this absolute and irrevocable waiver of spousal support is fair and equitable,” the deal read. “Each party acknowledges that he or she is healthy, gainfully employed and/or fully capable of supporting and maintaining oneself and does completely waive the right to obtain spousal support from the other.”
The deal said Lally was awarded a 2024 BMW M850i, several bank accounts, an IRS tax payment for 2018 and several credit cards.
Saniei will keep a 2025 BMW X-1, two bank accounts at Chase, all rights to her company and three credit cards.

The exes said the loan was the only community debt. The deal also said both parties would pay their own legal fees.

As Us previously reported, following the split, Lally started dating Lacy Nicole. In July, Michelle and her boyfriend Aaron Nosler ended things after one year of dating.

BLANTYRE-(MaraviPost)-Mighty Wanderers have climbed to the summit of the TNM Super League table following a hard-fought 2-0 victory over Songwe Border United on Wednesday afternoon at Kamuzu Stadium in Blantyre.
The Nomads displayed dominance from the onset, creating multiple chances but struggled to find the back of the net in the first half.
Striker Muhammad Sulumba missed two early opportunities, while Isaac Kaliati saw several of his set pieces and corners easily dealt with by the Songwe defense.
Despite their control of possession, Wanderers went into the break goalless, frustrated by the resilience of Songwe’s backline and the sharp reflexes of goalkeeper Bernard Mwangosi, who made several key saves to keep his side in the game.
In the second half, Wanderers coach Bob Mpinganjira made tactical substitutions, bringing in Clement Nyondo, Promise Kamwendo and Stanley Sanudi to inject fresh energy into the attack. The changes soon paid dividends.
After continuous pressure, the breakthrough came in the 86th minute when substitute Clement Nyondo capitalized on a brilliant assist from Masiye Manda to slot home the opener, sending the home fans into jubilation.
Songwe tried to respond in the closing stages, but their efforts were neutralized by a composed Wanderers defense led by man-of-the-match Dan Kudoto.
Deep into added time, Cameroonian forward Thierry Tanjong Sama sealed the victory with a well-taken goal, making it 2-0 and ensuring that the Blantyre giants claimed all three points.
Speaking after the match, Wanderers coach Bob Mpinganjira praised his players for their determination and fighting spirit.
“The boys gave their all today. It wasn’t an easy game but their discipline and commitment made the difference,” he said.
Songwe Border United interim coach Edwin Kaonga acknowledged the defeat, saying fatigue played a role in his team’s performance.
“We fought hard but towards the end, my players were tired, and Wanderers took advantage. We’re not out of the race yet we’ll keep pushing until the final day,” Kaonga said.
The result sees Mighty Wanderers sitting comfortably on top of the TNM Super League table with 51 points from 21 matches, remaining the only unbeaten team in the 2025 season.

Peter Dimba was the Malawi Congress Party (MCP) candidate for the position of Speaker and he is a graduate from the then Malawi Polytechnic.
From the member of parliament who moved the motion for his speakership, Dimba holds a master’s degree in accounting from a reputable academic institution.
Additionally , Dimba has been the chair of Legal Affairs Committee of Parliament for three parliamentary cohorts before he was appointed to the position of a cabinet minister.
Interestingly, Dimba is unanimously known to be level headed, calm, composed, mature, thoughtful and calculative.
On the other hand, the current speaker of the National Assembly, Sameer Suleman was allegedly kicked out of Football Association of Malawi because he did not have a Malawi School Certificate of Education.
Moreover, critics surmise that he has questionable and unpredictable character and behaviour.
It still remains unearthed if this unpredictability of his behavior contributed to the victory of his speakership.
In a dramatic lane of events, Suleman was usually suspended from parliament because of his unbecoming behavior, which includes fighting with other legislators in the Chamber in front of cameras.
It is exciting that today marks a historic event when the former speaker of the National Assembly, Gotani Hara, had a cordial handshake with Sameer signifying a commute of congratulatory message.
The truth of the matter is that numbers matter a lot in the National Assembly.
Being all elected as members of parliamentary, strategising separated Suleiman from Dimba.
On the other front, it is being debated that DPP is a system as it featured 3 DPP candidates for the position of a speaker with Suleiman emerging as a victor and others getting a zero vote.
It is against this background that Kondwani Nankhumwa was disqualified from the race because he had submitted nomination papers late and contrary to parliamentary orders, his submission indicated that he was the fifth in terms of chronogical time.
It must be emphasised that parliamentary orders demand that there should be a maximum of 4 contestants for the position of a speaker.
Will Suleiman be an impartial and progressive speaker? Only time will tell.

LILONGWE-(MaraviPost)-United Democratic Front (UDF)Member of Parliament for Machinga East, Ester Jolobala, has been elected as the Second Deputy Speaker of the Malawi Parliament after going unopposed in Wednesday’s parliamentary election.

The development follows the election of Victor Musowa as First Deputy Speaker, replacing Madalitso Kazombo earlier in the day.
With Jolobala’s election, the leadership structure of Parliament is now fully constituted, ensuring the smooth continuation of legislative business.

….Police enforce 6 PM curfew as tensions rise across the country during a contentious election marked by protests and public anxiety.
DODOMA-(MaraviPost)-Tanzania’s police authorities have announced the imposition of a nationwide curfew beginning at 6 PM following reports of growing tension and public unrest during the ongoing election.
The move comes amid mounting fears of violence and instability as citizens cast their votes in a highly charged political atmosphere.
Security forces have been deployed across major cities, including Dar es Salaam, Dodoma, and Arusha, to enforce the curfew and prevent large gatherings.
Police officials stated that the decision was made to protect lives and property as election-related incidents began to escalate in several regions.
The curfew order applies to all citizens, with exceptions made for essential workers, emergency services, and accredited election observers.
Authorities have urged the public to remain calm and cooperate with law enforcement officers as the situation continues to develop.
Reports from local media suggest that protests erupted in certain districts after allegations of voting irregularities and the detention of opposition supporters.
Observers have noted a growing sense of frustration among voters who claim that the electoral process has not been free or transparent.
The ruling government, however, insists that the elections are being conducted peacefully and in accordance with the law.
The curfew is expected to remain in place until further notice, depending on the security assessment of the police and electoral authorities.
Human rights organizations have expressed concern over the measure, warning that such restrictions could be used to suppress dissent and limit freedom of movement.
Regional observers from the African Union and the East African Community are closely monitoring the situation as counting begins in several polling centers.
The unfolding events mark one of the most tense election days in Tanzania’s recent history, reflecting deep divisions and uncertainty about the country’s political direction.
For now, Tanzanians are being urged to stay indoors, follow official updates, and avoid any actions that could inflame tensions during this critical period.
