Selling the City’s Jade Chan Reveals If She Still Plans to Sue Netflix

Selling the City‘s Jade Chan threatened to sue Netflix while filming the show’s season finale — but is that still the plan?

“No, I am not taking legal action,” Jade exclusively told Us Weekly ahead of Selling the City‘s premiere on Friday, January 3. “I [actually want to] thank the producers for their beautiful way of still telling that story and still showcasing the spiciness that was there in that heated moment.”

Jade was grateful that the explosive last moments of season 1 still showed her perspective.

“They were very respectful in knowing what was right and wrong in regards to [what to include]. Because there was much more to that scene than just the one minute that is shown. So I appreciate and respect them for that matter,” she continued. “That’s really where those comments from me were coming from. Because there were below-the-belt things said from both sides — from Abigail [Godfrey] and myself — that I would never want to be shown across the entire world.”

Selling the City, which comes from Selling Sunset creator Adam DiVello, follows Eleonora Srugo‘s real estate group at Douglas Elliman that consists of Jade, Abi, Jordyn Taylor Braff, Taylor Middleton, Gisselle Meneses Nunez and Justin Tuinstra. (Former Million Dollar Listing New York‘s Steve Gold, who currently works for The Corcoran Group, also makes appearances throughout the season.)

Jade started the season out on good terms with Eleonora — but not with Abi. Things between Jade and Eleonora, 37, hit a rough patch after Jade’s shady comments were brought up. While they were able to work it out by the end of the season, Abi felt that Jade made certain remarks about others without being held accountable.

“Jade runs [from a conversation]. I want to look her in the eyes and I want to know what type of person she is. You guys are my family and anybody who f—s with our family, you’re going to get the f—ing wrath. I don’t want to disrupt a decade-long friend, OK?” Abi said during the finale. “That is f—ing manipulation. If she doesn’t [admit to it], she’s going to look like the biggest asshole.”

Jade refused to speak with Abi on screen. “I don’t want to do this. Take this off me,” she told a producer. “You are pathetic. I’m not having a conversation like a 12-year-old. You don’t know me. F— this. No.”

As the conversation grew more tense, Jade fired back at Abi, calling her “nasty” off camera.

“I am not doing this. If any of this f—king airs, I will sue every single one of your asses,” Jade continued. “I am a grown-ass woman with a real career. This camera better get out of my f—king face. I am not mic’d. I am done. I am not mic’d. F— you, Netflix. F— Netflix. F— everybody.”

Jade told Us that the moment was building up the entire season, adding, “I hold everything in until it’s time to explode — and that’s exactly what happened. We were obviously filming the finale so we’re 12 weeks deep into it and there was a lot going on. It was a lot to unpack and I was seeing red.”

The real estate agent wasn’t thrilled that her personal comments were aired out.

“I was being yelled at and things that were being said to me were things that came from Eleonora. At the end of the day, those things that were said were in confidence and I felt betrayed, which is why I came to Eleonora,” Jade explained. “I tried to hold my composure. And she kept coming for me.”

Now, however, Jade isn’t holding any grudges toward her costars. “[Eleonora] is moving through the process of getting over my truth that was told on the show. I am OK. There were stabs coming towards me as well but I truly believe that I was completely authentic to myself,” she told Us. “And we will get through this. I hold no hard feelings about her revealing things about me and throwing me under the bus. It’s all good. I don’t take personal offense because I’m confident in who I am and my authenticity. We’ll get over it.”

Selling the City is streaming on Netflix.
