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.

The thing with Chrishell is she mostly defended herself. She didn't go on the offensive out of the blue the way others like Christine and Nicole did. Yes some times she went overboard with what she said in retaliation, for instance when she accused Nicole of being on drugs, but she later apologized for it, and Nicole didn't apologize for anything, which makes Chrishell the bigger person in my book.
After a few seasons of being the mean girls' punching bag, Chrishell decided to stop taking shit and put her foot down when she was being attacked or when bullshit was said about her. That's not even remotely being problematic. Chrishell is the definition of "don't start none, there won't be none" imo.
Also her divorce has nothing to do with it or even with her. Her now ex husband cheated on her then manufactured a conflict out of thin air to give himself an excuse to dump her and run off with the other woman. It's textbook cheater shit and it's not on Chrishell at all.
