Screen Rant chatted with Selling Sunset’s Davina Potratz about her feud with Romain Bonnet. The two reality TV stars clashed when Romain let everyone know that he didn't want her at his wedding to Mary Fitzgerald. Here’s what Davina had to say about their fight in season two and his “childish” behavior.
Selling Sunset’s new season dropped this Friday. If you’re a fan of reality TV, then we have a feeling you’ve been binge-watching this hit series all weekend long. Selling Sunset is basically today’s version of The Hills without Kristin Cavallari. Selling Sunset follows a group of high-class realtors as they sell some of the biggest and best listings in the Los Angeles area. The Oppenheim Group ladies are good at keeping viewers hooked. These realtors all have their own personalities and most are unafraid of confrontation (especially Davina Potratz). Davina is a fan favorite because she speaks her mind, whether she means to be harsh or not. If you’re a fan and witnessed the fight that went down between Davina and Romain Bonnet at Christine’s engagement party, and you want more answers, Screen Rant has you covered. Keep reading to hear Davina’s side of the story, including how her relationship with Romain has been nonexistent since she was dropped from Bonnet's wedding.
When asked about her relationship with Romain Bonnet, Davina told us that she finds him “disheartenedly disrespectful.” She goes on to explain the moment she approached Romain to try and make amends during Christine Quinn’s engagement party in season two. Davina says, “He wasn't in the conversation to listen or communicate; he was just there for him to talk and wasn't even trying to hear what I was saying.” Davina goes on to say that she was trying to apologize by establishing that the two really didn’t know one another. She explains that she told Romain that the only information she had about Romain beforehand was when Mary was crying at the office about him not wanting kids and “[Romain] feeling like [he] was missing out on [his] younger years.” Davina adds that she told Romain, “that doesn't make me feel good for her about you. Can you appreciate that? Maybe I’m wrong. Clearly I’m wrong, but in the moment that is what I felt. Based on the info I had, I just was questioning your intentions. I wasn’t judging her ring or how much money you made.”
Davina then goes on to wonder why she was the one who got singled out for that conversation, since Chrishell is the one who believes in a prenup. “I feel like that is not supportive of Romain.” Davina adds, “Maybe someone is more famous than others haha I don’t know. I feel a little bit like Chrishell didn’t get anything. She was part of the convo and said some things and she got zero heat for that and it was all pointed at me conveniently. I was trying to come to peace with it. And his mind was just this is his opportunity to sh*t on me and it was just not mature. He took advantage to put me down.” Davina ends by saying that she even sent Romain a follow-up text where she said “If I truly did really hurt your feelings, then I really do apologize. I wish you the best. He didn’t even react to it. It was very childish.”
So, it looks like Davina tried to put things to bed about the lack of invitation to Mary and Romain's wedding and, ultimately, the finale clip of season two. Even though she did try her best to be the bigger person with Romain, we think these two Selling Sunset stars will remain frenemies for the foreseeable future.
