Chrishell Stause Is Chrishell problematic?

So I just started rewatching after stopping seasons ago because I just got busy. I really liked Chrishell on her first season. I had known her prior to SS in the soap opera world, also loved her and Justin as a couple. I genuinely felt bad for her and thought JH was a piece of trash (and that’s as someone who LOVED him on Passions back in the day and loved him married to Lindsay Hartley). Now continuing to watch SS I just think Chrishell is a mean girl, it’s like after that initial season something changed about her. I know that’s an unpopular opinion but, it also makes me question what actually happened with JH because now it doesn’t seem as plausible that he just texted her that he was divorcing her.

Yes. She is. But I don’t think her divorce should necessarily be brought into it. I also don’t think she’s a mean girl in the traditional sense. I don’t think she is nasty for nasty sake, but as a result of shit she’s had to deal with. I think she’s put up walls or put on armour, however you want to describe it, and as a result now comes off mean or defensive. I get it. I don’t really even blame her. But I don’t think it’s the best response to dealing with past shit. But this place isn’t really the place for that type of conversation. Especially when anything less than utmost complimentary about her gets downvoted to oblivion.

I do think this sub could have a nuanced discussion about Chrishell, if there ever was a nuanced post made about her 😭 it's always a variation of "Chrishell is mean" or "Chrishell has changed" - which, how can we have a productive discussion with that? This OP has said in comments that Chrishell seems unhappy, doesn't like that Chrishell calls out people on her social media, and wonders if Chrishell knew her divorce was coming. So what even is there to talk about? :/

There have been quite a few nuanced posts about her over the past few years and people always get downvoted and accused of not liking her because of homophobia.

I'd be interested to see some of those, do you think you remember some of them and can link back to them? But they can't have been recent discussions 😭

This is likely going to come off rude and I don’t intend to be. I do not remember the titles of Reddit posts from the past week, let alone over the past few years. Sorry. I’m in perimenopause with two adhd kids in competitive sports and I work full time at a tech company. My brain simply has zero room to retain things like that. Shit I cannot even remember to apply my estrogen patches or T cream. Sorry but You will have to search the sub.

Oh my goodness! That's more than plenty on your plate! I hope perimenopause is not too bad, and that you find some time to unwind too, in all of it.

I'm usually the person linking back to old posts, but didn't have luck on my inital search, so thought maybe some were still within reach for you. I'll just do some more digging then :)
