In addition to their personal connection, Jeff also played an integral role in Chelsea's current career.
She was an established real estate agent before they met, but he introduced her to Jason Oppenheim, the founder of the Oppenheim Group real estate agency around which Selling Sunset is based. Chelsea joined the hit Netflix docusoap show in season 5.
“I knew Jason through my husband and I said to him, “What do I have to do?,’ ” Chelsea told Vogue in May 2022. “You kind of see how it played out on screen. I wasn’t sure whether I was going to get in or not.”
A representative for Chelsea has not yet responded to PEOPLE's request for comment.
