Selling Sunset Season 4: Who Is Christine And Emma's Mystery Guy?

Publish date: 2024-05-02

Selling Sunset season 4 has officially hit Netflix – and yes, we have binged every episode already. True to form, there's plenty of drama in the luxury real estate world of Los Angeles and the Oppenheim Group – notably between fan favourite Christine Quinn and the show's new star Emma Hernan.

As it turns out, the pair had a falling out after they found out they were dating the same guy at the same time. Only on Selling Sunset, right?

And for a while, the mystery guy remained an enigma - but he's finally been revealed to viewers as 45-year-old Peter Cornell, who is a director at the Oppenheim Group. Juicy.

If you're unfamiliar with the goss, new girl Emma has actually been working for the Oppenheim Group for years. But she makes her debut on season four when Christine takes some time away to have her son CJ, with Emma taking on more projects in her absence – after making her strutting surprise entrance at one of the team's evening dinners, of course.

We get a walk down memory lane when the rest of team Oppenheim realise that there's a history between Christine, Emma and their two-timing boyfriend. Uh oh.

Emma maintains that there was no overlap between the two relationships. "I found out about [Christine] the day that I met her. It was not pleasant. I was leaving the gym with who I thought was my boyfriend and she pulled up with her friend and was like 'Who the f*** is this?' and started screaming 'This is my boyfriend.'"

Christine, meanwhile, says: “[It's a] long story. My ex boyfriend was dating this girl at the same time he was dating me. I had no idea. I caught him red-handed during the day with her. So we broke up.”

She also adds: "I know this happened years and years ago, but this is all coming back to life now because I wasn't aware Mary continued her friendship with Emma after the cheating came out."

It gets juicier and juicier, since we also later find out that co-star Heather Rae Young also went on date with the mystery guy. But who is he?

According to US Weekly, Peter is director of the sports and entertainment at the LA real estate group. Photos from 2015 show that he attended the premiere for Hot Tub Time Machine with Christine, with the pair looking pretty cosy on the red carpet.

The report also reveals that Peter is a third generation real estate agent. But before selling luxurious property to LA's richest, he played professional basketball - even playing for the Lakers during his career, before retiring in 2009.

Of course, things are much more settled now since Christine is happily married to husband Christian Dumontet (or Christian Richard as he's known on the show), welcoming their son CJ in May 2021. What can we say? Bring on season five…
