"Selling Sunset" star Christine Quinn may be most known for being one of reality TV's biggest villains of the modern era. Quinn, 33, knows she is 'the one everyone loves to hate' on Netflix's massively successful reality series about the extremely high-end real estate market, but Quinn seems to hardly care; she is absolutely willing to play up to her well-known persona.

The mother of one and cryptocurrency advocate, (she and her husband, Christian Dumontet, are founders of RealOpen, a brokerage that prioritizes the use of cryptocurrency), is ready to leave her "Selling Sunset" days behind. Quinn departed from The Oppenheim Group last spring, which The Blast had reported on at the time, to shift her focus to RealOpen.

"I feel like I was the only one that understood the assignment," Quinn told the New York Times about her five seasons on 'Selling Sunset,' "I was the only one that said, 'Hey, this is a show, and I'm going to give the world a show.'"

There's No Need For Quinn To 'Sell' A Spectacle

Quinn's fanbase knows well the "How To Be A Boss B---h" author has had enough experience with the luxury real estate market to develop a seasoned eye for only the most luxurious of luxury preferences; remember her wedding to Dumontet, which gave extreme gothic fairy princess vibes?

Quinn knows herself well and has known exactly who she is for quite a while.

The location for Quinn's aforementioned New York Times profile would tell all that they would need to know about her love for a luxurious lifestyle. The interview was conducted at Caviar Russe, as per the publication. The eatery would seemingly put even a simple lunch eaten at an Oppenheim Group desk to shame; the restaurant has Michelin stars to its name!

Quinn Reveals Her Luxurious Palate

It would make a lot of sense for Quinn to be dining at an eatery with caviar on its menu.

According to Quinn, she had been introduced to caviar in her early 20s while on a date. Of the man who would go on to play a crucial note in shaping Quinn's food preferences for the rest of her life, she says, "Sure, call him a sugar daddy. He was, but we had amazing chemistry."

The 'amazing chemistry' Quinn had with her date that night might have eventually fizzled, but the meal they shared would go on to really impact her tastes. The duo also enjoyed Quinn's "first filet mignon that night" and "her first glass of real Champagne."

The meal Quinn partook in that night left quite an impression on the then-21-year-old. "It just opened my eyes up to this whole world, which I had never seen before and didn't even know existed," she went on to tell The New York Times.

Looking Back On Quinn's Gorgeous Wedding

Quinn's nuptials to Dumontet were certainly a visual representation of her high-end taste!

The wedding, which was featured on "Selling Sunset," took place right before the COVID-19 pandemic began, in December 2019, as per People.

Quinn nearly rejected the idea of featuring her wedding on TV.

She "never, ever wanted to" bring the public into her big day, but she knew if she and her husband-to-be did not 'go big' then the wedding as "Selling Sunset" fans came to know it, wouldn't be.

"I actually had coronavirus in late December," Quinn shared per a report from The Blast, "So when we were filming, I had it and I was so freaking sick and planning this wedding. We were kind of hesitant about doing it on camera, but I knew if we didn't push ourselves to plan a wedding, we weren't going to have a wedding. We're the type to be like, 'We don't really need a wedding.' I was like 50/50 on it. I just want to be with someone that I love, and that's really all I care about."

"Selling Sunset" was recently renewed for a sixth and seventh season.
