We can’t wait.

Two new cast members have joined the Selling Sunset crew ahead of season six.

Realtors Bre Tiesi and Nicole Young will be featured on the hugely popular reality series, which follows the Oppenheim Group, a brokerage based in LA.

Nicole Young confirmed news of her casting by sharing a screenshot of a People Magazine article on her Instagram profile.

In the caption, she wrote: “The cat’s out of the bag y’all! I’m so excited to be joining the cast and my longtime friends and @theoppenheimgroup coworkers on Selling Sunset!!! Let’s do this!”

In her interview with People, she spoke about how she was meant to be part of the original lineup for the show, but got “cold feet”, as she felt she wasn’t ready.

She said: “I just wasn’t ready to expose my entire life, and even more so, my clients and business — which I’m very protective of — to the entire world.”

Fans may recognise the other newcomer, Bre Tiesi, as the mother of Nick Cannon’s child Legendary Love. She told People that she felt the time was right to join the cast as she wanted to transition out of her modelling career and into a different line of work.

“I wanted to transition out of modeling and start setting myself up for a long-term career,” she said. “I started taking it more seriously and tapping into my network, and that’s when I started making some high-figure sales. As amazing as modeling was as an industry for me, I was just kind of over it. You know, I’m 31 now. So I’m like, it’s time to be a big girl!”

In the last season of Selling Sunset, fans were privy to a major cliffhanger as it seemed Christine Quinn’s place at the group was in jeopardy. Since then, however, Christine has confirmed that she has left the brokerage and branched out on her own.
