Mary Bonnet is giving her assessment.

No, not on one of her real estate properties—but on the drama that unfolded on season eight of Selling Sunset after Bre Tiesi told Chelsea Lazkani about her husband Jeff Lazkani’s alleged infidelity.

“I think Bre did the right thing,” Mary told E! News in an exclusive interview. “If it were me, I would want somebody to come tell me. I think she handled it with grace. She was sensitive about it. They’ve had their beef in the past. Bre’s not the kind of person that—if she wanted to be rude, she'll be rude. She'll lay it out there. But I like Bre a lot. She's just a very straight shooter, and I respect that.”

Still, the reality star understands it was a tough situation for Chelsea.

“It's not an easy thing for anybody to hear,” she continued, “and it's very common for people to blame other people because you don't want to blame the person that actually hurt you. So it's a common thing I think that happens, but I don't think it's Bre’s fault at all."

While Bre and Chelsea already had past feuds—thanks to Chelsea weighing in on Bre’s relationship with Nick Cannon, dad to her 2-year-old son Legendary Love—it seemed like they had moved on.

“I feel like we’ve put all our armor down,” Chelsea said earlier this season, “and we’re working towards having a really nice, cohesive not only professional relationship but personal relationship too.”

However, their dynamic changed after Bre’s friend Amanda Lynn told her a pal allegedly saw Chelsea’s husband Jeff making out with another woman in a hotel lobby, and Bre relayed this information to Chelsea during a filmed sit-down (E! News reached out to Jeff’s lawyer and reps for both him and Chelsea after the allegations were revealed in a season teaser but didn’t hear back).

While it initially seemed like the costars remained on good terms, Chelsea then questioned Bre’s intentions for bringing up the allegations on camera and if she set up the scene with Amanda. However, Bre insisted she wasn’t intentionally trying to peddle this drama.

“I f--king told Chelsea already,” Bre explained during a phone call with Chelsea and their costars Chrishell Stause and Emma Hernan. “I’ve already told you guys. I don’t want to be the one f--king involved. I don’t want to be the one that has to come out and tell her this s--t. This doesn’t look good for me. It doesn’t work me. It doesn’t feel good for me, especially after the fact that I’m trying to actually have a relationship with Chelsea.”

Bre actually claimed Chelsea knew about the cheating allegations before filming even started and that she had a conversation with her off-camera.

"I told her months before we filmed," she noted to E! Sept. 26. "I told her before Amanda was even coming on, and I let her know production asked for this lunch.'"

However, Chelsea tells a different story.

Alleging Bre “didn’t have a storyline” this season, Chelsea told Jessie Woo in a Sept. 9 Instagram Live, “Bre made it very clear that she had something on me,” told production, “and that’s why they gave her the scene with Amanda.”

After allegedly hearing about the Amanda sit-down from Emma, Chelsea said she asked production to set up a scene between herself and Bre so she could hear the rumor from her directly before it spread any further.  

"I said, 'This is gonna be a storyline,'" she added. “So I said to production, ‘I want Bre to tell me. The last thing I want is for this s--t to go around to 10 other people at the office before it comes to me.’”

“I sat there and watched her be a 'girl’s girl' and make out like she wanted to give me the heads-up for a scene that I f--king orchestrated,” Chelsea continued, “because I knew the flip side could have been a lot uglier.” (E! News reached out to Netflix for comment but has yet to hear back).

As for how the chatter played a role in her subsequent divorce, Chelsea insisted to Entertainment Tonight that the rumor “has nothing to do with the deterioriation of my marriage.”

Meanwhile, Mary had her own drama with Chelsea this season. During the show, Mary said she’d been asked by a social media follower who was the biggest pot-stirrer and picked Chelsea. Afterwards, she claimed, Chelsea sent her a “rude” and “inappropriate” text. Chelsea also didn’t appreciate it when Mary had a conversation with their bosses Brett and Jason Oppenheim about people telling her Chelsea’s outfit wasn’t work-appropriate.

However, Mary suggests they’ve moved forward.

“For me, I feel that we squashed everything," she told E!. “She sent a text about something, we had an argument about it, and then I didn't agree with her outfit—only in a work environment. Like, she could wear it out, she looks beautiful in it, she's a beautiful woman. Just at work, when you're representing clients, I didn't think it was appropriate. But again, agree to disagree.”

Mary writes about her rise to reality stardom as well as her personal journey off-camera in her new memoir Selling Sunshine, which was released by HarperCollins Sept. 24. In the book, she recalls the words she received from Selling Sunset creator Adam DiVello when the show first launched: “’I can’t use what you don’t give me. So at the end of the day, what you say and how you act is up to you.’”

Eight seasons later, Mary says this phrase is still valid.

“It’s absolutely true,” she told E!. “People try to say, ‘Oh no, they’re using this.’ I mean, they can edit it where you don't get the full picture. But if you say or do something, you did it. You said it. It's right there. So I think sometimes things are taken out of context slightly, but for the most part, it is what it is.”
