Net worth: Unknown

Alanna Gold is a 32-year-old real estate agent from Toronto and is the latest agent to join the Oppenheim Group, making her Selling Sunset debut in season 8.

Prior to working in luxury real estate, Alanna was studying to be a vet. In a new interview with People, Alanna explained: "I was going to university and I got discovered for modelling in the middle of it. I took the opportunity because I'm actually allergic to animals, so that was not a good path for me."

It was after she visited LA while modelling where she realised she "wanted to do something bigger" and during the COVID-19 pandemic she decided to make the move into real estate and worked towards getting her license.

Mary Bonnet

Age: 44

Net worth: Estimated $1 million (£760,000)

Mary Bonnet (née Fitzgerald) played a big part in season 2 of Selling Sunset, with her wedding to fellow cast member Romain at a private LA estate a huge talking point. What's more, Mary got some business done on her wedding day – selling the venue on the very same day she tied the knot.

Mary also previously dated Jason Oppenheim – but the two remain on good terms. She was the former officer manager, but stepped down in season 7.

Speaking of season 8, Mary told Netflix it is "probably my most dramatic with other cast members".

"I wasn't nervous at all, but I hate confrontation and knew it was bound to happen at some point," she said. "I'm always hesitant to be around the drama, but I felt disrespected so was willing to address it head-on."

Emma Hernan

Age: 32

Emma Hernan is a "self-made multi-millionaire" and is a very successful real estate agent who joined The Oppenheim Group in 2018 and joined Selling Sunset in 2021 for season 4.

As well as this, she is a professional model and an entrepreneur running her own plant-based empanada business, Emma Leigh & Co.

Emma was encouraged from Brett and Jason Oppenheim to get a real estate license after they helped her find a house in 2017.

Chrishell Stause

Age: 43

Net worth: Approx $3-5 million (£2.3-3.8 million)

Chrishell, who joined Selling Sunset in season 1, is no stranger to the small screen, having previously acted in recurring roles on an array of US soaps including Days of Our Lives, The Young and The Restless, and All My Children.

She further entered the spotlight in 2017 when she married This Is Us star Justin Hartley, although unfortunately the marriage didn't work out - Chrishell's divorce and the aftermath were the focus of season 3, and she later went on to date none other than Jason Oppenheim, although they also went their separate ways in December 2021.

Chrishell is now married to rapper G Flip.

"I was definitely hesitant to dive back into the drama, but also happy to be back together and shake things up," Chrishell told Netflix's Tudum about season 8.

"I started this season in a good place with most of the agents, with always one exception, and the dynamics have certainly shifted. Pray for us."

Age: 33

Net worth: Between $4 - $6 million

Bre Tiesi joined the show for season 6, and is one of the mothers of Nick Cannon's 12 children.

Her unconventional relationship caused issues with Chelsea Lazkani, but that didn't stop Bre getting to work, as she brought in high-earning clients, including rapper Saweetie.

After the season 7 finale, Bre's future with The 0 Group was left uncertain, with Jason telling Chrishell: "I just assumed that she would stay at the brokerage, but I really don't know."

Nicole Young

In an interview with TMZ, Jason Oppenheim said that he has "nothing against her coming back", but it isn't his sole decision to make.
