Selling Sunset Star Chrishell Stause Joins Neighbours Cast

“Selling Sunset” star Chrishell Stause is returning to her soap opera roots.

The real estate agent and actor, who got her start on “All My Children” and “Days of Our Lives,” is joining the cast of Amazon Freevee’s “Neighbours” reboot as a guest star. Stause is set to start filming in Australia in July.

On “Neighbours,” Stause will portray Yasmine “Yas” Shields, who is described in a press release as “a glamorous and successful businesswoman in pursuit of an exciting new opportunity.”

“I am honored and excited to join such a beloved and iconic show,” Stause said in a statement. “Coming from the world of soaps in the U.S., it’s back to my first love in the entertainment industry. They pitched me an idea for a character, and I was immediately excited to figure out a way to make it happen. Ramsay Street here I come!”
