Christine Quinn claims she âabsolutelyâ tested positive for COVID-19 prior to the âSelling Sunsetâ reunion â despite some of her co-stars thinking otherwise.
“People think you faked COVID,” Andy Cohen told her during Wednesday’s episode of “Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen.”
âI absolutely did have COVID. I absolutely did, yes,â Quinn, 33, insisted.
When Cohen asked why she didnât appear virtually â like co-star Amanza Smith, who also had COVID-19 at the time â Quinn said she still âwasnât feeling well at all.â
âI was in bed until 4 oâclock that day. And like, no one wants to see what I look like in the morning,â she explained.
The âHow to Be a Boss Bitchâ author also told Cohen, 53, that she never tuned into the reunion â she watched Huluâs âThe Kardashiansâ instead.
Quinnâs rep told Page Six at the time that she ditched filming the reunion on April 24 âout of an abundance of caution for the cast and crew.â
However, just two days later, the reality star did a photo shoot with âReal Housewives of New Jerseyâ star Melissa Gorga. She claims she tested negative the night of April 25 and the morning of April 26.
Quinn previously claimed she âterminatedâ her contract with The Oppenheim Group âbefore filming for the Season 5 reunion even began â to start her own real estate company with husband Christian Richard.
The blond beautyâs latest claim left many âSelling Sunsetâ fans wondering how sheâd fit into the future of the show.
âI love the show. The show is, like, my No. 1 [and] everyone knows that,â she told Us Weekly earlier this week. âBut we just have to get creative now because I donât work for The Oppenheim Group.
âIâm not going anywhere,â she continued. âLike, Iâll always be on television. Iâm not going anywhere. Itâs just like, letâs have fun with this now.â
However, returning to the show means Quinn will have to work with producer Adam DiVello again, who allegedly told her to âkillâ herself.
âThereâs been complaints filed against him. Multiple complaints ⦠and itâs been sick,â Quinn told host Alexandra Cooper on Tuesdayâs episode of the âCall Her Daddyâ podcast. âHe actually told me to go fall down the stairs and kill myself at one point.â
A rep for DiVello did not immediately respond to Page Sixâs request for comment.
