"Selling Sunset" star Chrishell Stause is sticking up for her archenemy, co-star Christine Quinn after the blonde bombshell had made harsh comments about her divorce with "This Is Us" star Justin Hartley. Season Three, which dropped on Netflix on Friday, August 8, was centered around two big events: Chrishell's divorce and Christine's wedding. Fans were left with their jaws on the floor after Christine questioned whether Stause was telling the truth about her divorce and expressed her doubt that Chrishell was blindsided by the filing.

According to Chrishell, she found out that Justin Hartley filed for divorce via text message. Christine Quinn seemed less than sympathetic towards her co-star and even complained that Stause hadn't RSVPd for her fairytale wedding. The season ended with the winter wonderland-themed ceremony and viewers were impressed that Chrishell showed up to support Christine. All hell broke loose when Davina Potratz brought up Chrishell's divorce and seemed to take Justin's side, leaving Stause to abruptly storm out of the reception.

Christine Quinn made matters worse when she took to social media and liked a tweet bashing Chrishell, calling her a "sad excuse of an 'actress.'" While several fans WENT OFF on Christine for backing the harsh tweet, Chrishell Stause is speaking out and begging her followers to lay off her co-star.

"I SO appreciate all the love you guys have given for #SellingSunset ?? wow!" Chrishell Stause wrote. "That being said, some of you are attacking a certain person in defending me. I appreciate the sentiment because certain things made me mad too. But I hate feeling like someone is getting bullied."

When someone shared a screenshot showing Christine Quinn liked the tweet, Chrishell Stause responded by being the bigger person. "You stick up for them while you’re vulnerable and they just don’t care. This is why you’re the bigger person #womenstand4women," the fan wrote to Chrishell. The "Selling Sunset" star replied by stating, "I TRY not to let people’s actions dictate what I believe in. Regardless."

As The Blast reported, Justin Hartley pulled the plug on their marriage in November and he is reportedly "irritated" over Chrishell's portrayal of their divorce.
