LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Amid all the rumors and drama surrounding Christine Quinn, Jason Oppenheim is open to her return to 'Selling Sunset'. Christine Quinn's time on Netflix's 'Selling Sunset' was a whirlwind of glamor, gossip, and glittering high heels.

Known for her sharp tongue and unapologetic attitude, Christine Quinn always managed to keep us hooked. More than just another face in the luxury real estate game, she was the drama queen we loved to watch. Christine's exit from 'Selling Sunset' wasn't exactly a quiet departure, it was a whole different show in itself. 

Why did Christine Quinn quit 'Selling Sunset'?

Christine Quinn, the queen of real estate drama, left 'Selling Sunset' in 2022 after five rollercoaster seasons. Her exit wasn't just about the endless feuds with her co-stars; it also marked her focus on building her own business.

Christine and her now-estranged husband, Christian Dumontet, launched RealOpen, a crypto real estate venture. She decided to leave the Oppenheim Group to fully commit to her new project.

Christine spilled the tea to PEOPLE, saying, 'I terminated my contract when the brokerage launched. I had to make a business decision that was for me.' Her departure might as well be a much-needed break from the high-voltage drama and conflicts that seemed to follow her every move on the show.

Christine Quinn's estranged husband Christian Dumontet charged with misdemeanor assault and child endangerment

As if Christine's storyline wasn't dramatic enough, her estranged husband, Christian Dumontet, who also appeared on 'Selling Sunset' as Christian Richard, was arrested twice within 36 hours over a domestic violence incident.

The details are wild - he allegedly threw a bag containing a glass bottle, which missed Christine but injured their child. The chaos didn’t end there; he was arrested again the next day for violating a protective order that Christine had secured against him.

Christine married Dumontet in December 2019 in an extravagant ceremony, which was also shown in 'Selling Sunset'. They welcomed their son in May 2021.

Jason Oppenheim open to Christine Quinn's return to 'Selling Sunset'

For all those who love drama and miss seeing Christine stir the pot on 'Selling Sunset', there's a glimmer of hope. Jason Oppenheim, the Oppenheim Group president, shared that he's open to Christine's return to the hit Netflix series.

'I have nothing against her coming back. I think everyone deserves a second chance,' he told TMZ. However, with an emphasis on it being a group decision involving the cast and Netflix, he said, 'I think I would be on board, but that would be a group decision'.

Whether Christine decides to make a comeback or not, her presence is undoubtedly missed by those who love a bit of reality show drama.
