If you've watched season five of Selling Sunset, you likely have some opinions on Christine Quinn. New mother Quinn has upset basically every other cast member from the luxury real estate reality TV show, and is not afraid to share her opinion on everything, no matter how biting it may be.
This season we watched her partner up with London-born and fellow new mother/realtor Chelsea Lazkani, and eventually leaving the Oppenheim Group after it was discovered she had tried to blackmail Emma's client against working with her. Last year, 31-year-old Quinn welcomed her first baby, Christian jr, with husband Christian Richard, whom she married in 2019 in a grand LA cathedral.
Quinn's co-star and long-running enemy Chrishell Stause called her a 'gold-digger' and accused her of marrying for money. Quinn herself has joked about liking rich men, but she makes plenty of her own money and Richard pursued her, rather than the other way around. Their extravagant marriage was shown in Selling Sunset season three, but who is Richard, and what does he do?

Who is Selling Sunset's Christine Qunn's husband Christian Richard and how did he make his money?
Christian Richard Christian, 42, made enough money as a tech entrepreneur that he retired a few years ago, by the age of 38. As a former software engineer turned investor, he helped create Foodler, one of the first online food delivery companies. His company was sold to GrubHub in 2017, for a huge $65million (£51m) which helped finance his early retirement.
He is estimated to be worth a whopping $20m. He met Christine Quinn through a mutual friend, who had been on a date with Christian but ‘wasn’t feeling it’. They introduced the couple when Richard was looking for a new house, the pair hit it off and were married less than a year later.
Quinn shared their story back in season two, saying she took a break from work to travel with him. “We went all over, to Maldives, Bordeaux, I feel like I was travelling the world doing my eat, pray, love thing. But in like, five-star resorts, obviously,” she said.
Now, the couple have their sights on new horizons as they revealed they are launching realopen.com, with plans to 'disrupt the real estate market'.
