Wait, were Chrishell and Jason secretly dating during season 4 of Selling Sunset?

Maybe in season five?

Netflix’s Selling Sunset dropped their fourth season last week and we’ve, like everyone in the world, been completely obsessed with it.

But of course, as we all binged the new series, there was one thing we all expected to see that never made an appearance – the supposed romance between Jason Oppenheim and realtor Chrishell Stause.

The couple went official back in July, and while we know they’re definitely an item, you wouldn’t be able to tell at all from what we’ve seen of them in season four.

But we finally have some answers – Jason has revealed in a recent interview that the pair kept their newly found romance under wraps as the series was filming.

Opening up about their relationship to US Weekly, Jason admitted that it was Chrishell’s idea to keep their romance on the down-low.

He said: “I think when [a relationship is] public, it puts a lot of added pressures and publicity and opinion.

“I think it’s nice to kind of start a relationship in the way that normal relationships kind of grow and progress. And that’s just between two people.”

While he did say they had told some of their close family and friends, they decided it would be best to keep it under wraps around their colleagues in the office.

He continued: “We told some close friends, but if you want to keep something private, you have to generally not tell too many people. It’s hard to keep a secret amongst a lot of people.”

While friends and family seemed to be happy for them, the trailer for season five says their co-workers had some mixed feelings.

After sharing photos of Jason kissing her neck while on holiday in Italy in July, Chrishell confirmed that she is dating the owner of the Oppenheim group.

A representative for Stause confirmed that the two Selling Sunset stars are “very happy together”.

Jason, meanwhile, told People Magazine a little bit more about the relationship.

“Chrishell and I became close friends and it has developed into an amazing relationship,” he said. “I care about her deeply and we are very happy together.”
