Chelsea Lazkani, star of Selling Sunset, is ready for a fresh start after officially being declared legally single. The 31-year-old reality TV star and her estranged husband, Jeff Lazkani, have reached a major milestone in their divorce journey. The two had been in a highly publicized split, and now, Chelsea is free to move on.
A Long Divorce Process
It’s been a rocky road for Chelsea and Jeff. Their divorce drama played out on Netflix’s hit reality series Selling Sunset, giving fans a front-row seat to their crumbling marriage. According to court documents, Chelsea and Jeff had both agreed to ask the judge to declare them legally single. This decision came after a hearing on Tuesday, following a request filed just days earlier.
Though Chelsea and Jeff are now legally single, their divorce isn’t fully settled yet. They are still working out the details of asset division. The former couple, who share two children, are also negotiating custody and child support arrangements. But the process of splitting up their wealth is proving tricky.
Jeff Takes the First Step
In a surprising twist, Jeff was the first to file for the legal separation, asking the judge to bifurcate their divorce back in October. Chelsea, who initially filed for divorce earlier in March, seemed to agree with the idea. The decision to declare them legally single speeds up the process, but it doesn’t end the complicated task of dividing their assets.
Accusations and Drama Unfold
Jeff’s filing included some shocking accusations. He claimed that Chelsea had been “physically aggressive” accusing her of hitting him in the face just before his filing. According to Jeff, the incident caused a cut and broke his glasses. He also claimed that Chelsea installed a lock on their $2.9 million Manhattan Beach home and remotely monitored his visits. The tension between the two only escalated as they fought over the property.
Jeff’s accusations don’t stop there. He said that Chelsea had been acting suspiciously, claiming that some of his belongings were missing from the home. As a result, he asked the judge to prevent either of them from living full-time at the house. Instead, he wanted Chelsea to have limited access — only two hours at a time, under supervision.
A Hollywood Wedding Gone Wrong
The former couple’s marriage began in 2017, when they tied the knot at the stunning Resort at Pelican Hill in Newport Beach. But their union quickly crumbled, with Chelsea filing for divorce in March, citing irreconcilable differences.
Chelsea and Jeff’s Drama on Selling Sunset
In an even more dramatic turn, the latest season of Selling Sunset has focused heavily on Chelsea and Jeff’s divorce. In fact, some fans feel the show has taken a more personal and dramatic route, with much of the season revolving around the emotional tension between cast members rather than their professional lives.
Chelsea and Jeff’s split has become a focal point for the show. Their marital issues are explored in-depth, with accusations of infidelity and a troubled relationship taking center stage.
Will Selling Sunset Survive?
With the show diving into Chelsea’s emotional rollercoaster, it’s clear that the drama isn’t slowing down. Chelsea’s divorce is only the beginning of a bigger story that fans are watching closely. Whether the show can keep its momentum or if it will lose viewers to other, more competitive reality series remains to be seen. But one thing’s for sure — Chelsea Lazkani is ready to face the future, one step at a time.
