It’s all very vague, so was Nicole actually fired from Selling Sunset or not?!
What's actually going on?
This season of Selling Sunset certainly wasted no time really getting into the cast drama, with Nicole successfully managing to seemingly get herself fired from The Oppenheim Group within just three episodes.
Following Nicole’s comments to Chrishell during dinner, Jason and Brett asked her to leave The Oppenheim Office, and it was very much giving the impression that she’d been fired from the company. But is that actually what happened?

Well, according to Nicole she actually wasn’t fired from Selling Sunset at all, as she claimed in an interview with Tudum.
She said: “That storyline was frustrating for me, because the truth of the matter is I was never fired from the office or The Oppenheim group.
“Not coming into the office and continuing to work and do business, that wasn’t a huge deal. It’s also something that’s just so easily verifiable by anyone in the public, if they wanted to look it up.”
And it seems that despite her comments landing her in some very hot water with Jason and Brett, Nicole has no plans on apologising to Chrishell for what she said.
Nicole told Reality Shrine: “My comment to Chrishell in that moment was reactive made under immense pressure after being repeatedly attacked and humiliated.
“It wasn’t my proudest moment, but it came from a place of exhaustion and self protection, not cruelty.
“My intention was to call out the projection and manipulation behind her accusations, not to make light of her loss.
“I would never deliberately mock or minimize such a personal tragedy.
“Unfortunately, that distinction was ignored, and my words were twisted to fit a narrative that painted me as the aggressor instead of the target.”
She continued, explaining that in her opinion being asked to leave the office “speaks volumes about the double standards at play.”
Nicole said: “Being asked to leave the office for defending myself in a moment of emotional overwhelm, while others have faced zero repercussions for the years of defamatory claims and targeted hostility I have received, speaks volumes about the double standards at play.
“It’s clear that certain cast members are not only allowed to say whatever they want without consequence, but are actively rewarded for it.
“That kind of unchecked power enables them to push out anyone they decide doesn’t serve their narrative.”
