Chrishell Stause is making eyebrows raise after the Selling Sunset star revealed she's been dating her boss Jason Oppenheim following her divorce from Justin Hartley.
The 40-year-old former soap opera actress casually made her couple debut with the real estate tycoon in an Instagram post on Wednesday.
Posting several photos from a recent cast trip to Italy, Chrishell saved the best two snaps last.
In one picture, she can be seen planting a sweet kiss on her Selling Sunset boss' bald head.
In another, Jason looks like he cast resist her charm -- leaning in to kiss Chrishell's neck as she sits on his lap.
"The JLo effect," she captioned her post. It's not what she said, but her co-star's said that sealed the dating deal.
"Love you Chrishell. Thank you for making my brother happy," Jason's twin Brett Oppenheim commented.
Mary Fitzgerald's husband even got in on the action.
Fitzgerald dated Jason before walking down the aisle with Romain Bonnet.
"So happy for you guys! Finally people will stop with Jason and Mary hopefully," Romain hilariously wrote.
Mary posted her own comment, adding, “Nothing makes me more excited than to see two of my closest friends together and making each other so happy!”
While Chrishell and Jason's cast are clearly overjoyed with the news, Selling Sunset viewers are left picking their jaws up off the floor.
The reactions to their couple debut are hilarious.
"Wait…WHAT???" one person responded. "When I tell you my jaw dropped!!" added another. "Shut the front door!!" posted a third.
Others questioned if their relationship was just to pump up ratings for the upcoming new season.
"This seems bizarre," someone wrote. "Season 4 should be interesting," shared a second. "What? seems convenient," added another.
Jason later confirmed their romance to Us Weekly, revealing exactly how their friendship turned into more.
"Chrishell and I became close friends and it has developed into an amazing relationship,” he told the outlet. “I care about her deeply and we’re very happy together.”
Chrishell and Jason's couple debut comes just six months after she finalized her divorce from Hartley.
The This Is Us hunk pulled the plug on their marriage by filing for divorce in November 2019.
He has already remarried, so now it's time for Chrishell to find happiness!
