    Chelsea Lazkani is "in [a] mess" amid her divorce

    The 31-year-old real estate agent - who is best know for starring on 'Selling Sunset' - was asked if her split from Jeff Lazkani, 41, would play a part in upcoming episodes of the hit Netflix reality show and explained that tricky times would play out on screen


    She told E! News: "I'm in mess again. I done did it again. I know, I'm so sorry. I'm not a mess this time, I'm in mess. Usually I create it, this time I landed right in it."

    The reality star - who has Melia, three, and five-year-old Maddox with her estranged husband - cited "irreconcilable differences" in the divorce papers and thanked her co-stars Chrishell Stause and Emma Hernan for their ongoing support through the tough time.

    She added: "Chrishell and Emma, who are my best friends in the entire world, they've been my rocks throughout this season. The funny thing is that when you associate yourself with the mess, you end up in mess too. So, unfortunately, they got themselves intertwined a little bit but they're here for it.."

    Chelsea is seeking spousal support but has not asked the court to terminate Jeff's ability to also request alimony payments.

    There is no mention of a pre-nuptial agreement but the reality TV star wants the court to determine how their assets should be divided.#

    The former couple first met on Tinder in 2015 before getting married two years later.

    Reflecting on how they got together, Chelsea previously told MailOnline: "We spoke about 15 times before getting together.

    "I don't want to waste my time and give my energy to somebody if I don't think it will be worth it. I felt like I knew him before we even met and the connection was immediate."
