Christine Quinn is not happy about the way she was portrayed in the fourth season of the uber-popular Netflix series Marketing Sunset — and to hear her tell it new this weekend, maybe the new momma has a point or two.
Throughout the particular season, Christine’ s storyline centered on her pregnancy and her life as a new mom to her baby boy, Christian Georges Dumontet , now 7 months old, whom she shares with her husband Christian Richard (pictured within the inset, above).

At the center of typically the controversy was Christine’ s portrayal on the show versus what actually happened in her pregnancy — including an emergency C-section to birth this baby in what she has described to be a very traumatic way .
Speaking to ET Canada about viewers’ mistaken impressions of her pregnancy , Quinn opened up about often the “ really difficult” situation plus her frustrations with how the girl storyline was edited and portrayed:
“ I was pregnant on top of dealing with postpartum depression… This season was really difficult for me. I did the best that I could along with the emotions that I was dealing with at the time and that I’ m still dealing with now. The problem which i was facing [was] everyone was saying, ‘ oh, well, you know, she’ s so thin. She’ s so this. She’ s so that. ’ But inside, you know, I was dealing with PTSD. ”
Wow.
The reality TV star definitely speaks up a little bit in your show about her scary in addition to medically-challenging experience with the birth itself, but the series certainly didn’ t dive into any PTSD exploration.
And if that wasn’ t bad enough, Christine also says that the reaction of her co-stars made things an even more difficult issue, too:
“ They make fun of the exact fact of me being late in the show. ‘ Oh, Christine’ s late. Oh, Christine’ s late. ’ And it’ s because I was literally having panic attacks and We was worried about my pregnancy and something going wrong. It was a lion’ s den and these girls were pitted against me. And it was really, really difficult. ”
The high-profile reality TV figure also added specific claims questioning how the chronology of the show was portrayed, too.

For one, the girl mentioned a memorable yoga scene which was shown after she’ d given birth — but which Christine says was actually taped before the birth, and before the woman scary medical issues:
“ It was extremely hurtful considering the process that I went through. And I actually know, you understand, editing and chronological order on the show doesn’ t actually necessarily help because I had my baby and then I has been doing a yoga scene. But in real life and that yoga scene, I was actually pregnant. They edited me from you know, the boobs up so My partner and i got a lot of backlash on social media saying, ‘ I can’ t believe you’ re doing yoga two weeks after giving birth after having an emergency C-section. ’ My process was not easy by any means and on TELEVISION, they make it look easy. But I was struggling inside real life. I really was. ”
Damn! That’ s definitely an eye-opener, to say the least.
Of course , we’ re all used to reality TV shows getting creative with editing, and it’ h not like it’ s that will surprising to see that Selling Sunset could have allegedly done something similar for their own series. But are you surprised at Christine’ s comments here, Perezcious readers??
