Davina Potratz, former celebrity chef and founder of the popular blog “Selling Sunset” has recently released her first cookbook. The release generated a spike in interest for the original Buona Vita vegan restaurant she operates with Chelsea Lazkani, where they sell gluten-free dishes that are also free from refined sugars.

Chelsea Lazkani, star of Netflix’s Selling Sunset, has spoken up about her rocky relationship with Davina Potratz, revealing why they didn’t get along.
Chelsea was introduced as a new member of the Oppenheim Group, originating from London, in season 5 of the reality show.
After hearing Christine Quinn express her belief that Davina had prioritized being liked by the bulk of the group above their relationship, the newcomer sat down for a one-on-one with Davina in one of the newly aired episodes.
Their encounter did not go well, with video from their talk showing Davina remarking, ‘I believe it’s impossible to expect respect when you don’t know someone and you come at them like this.’
‘Wow, I’m going to be completely honest with you,’ Chelsea said. Right now, I’m about to vomit. This is ridiculous.’
In a recent interview, the newest member of the Selling Sunset cast was asked whether she feels Christine’s assessment that Davina wants to be loved is correct, and she said that they ‘differ substantially on principles.’

‘I’m a really direct shooter and a straight-up guy, and you get what you see.’ I believe she’s a little more Switzerland, which is OK, but you’ll have a hard time dealing with someone like me, because I constantly want to know where I am with you and what you think of me,’ she said.
While she agrees with Christine’s decision, she says she’s still friendly with Davina.
‘If you stand for nothing, you fall for everything,’ Chelsea told Entertainment Tonight. ‘I believe you have to be outspoken, particularly in this environment.’
‘And I believe that the second you shrink, I begin to wonder, “Ooh, is this person being honest, is this person being genuine?” And I might be completely incorrect.’
‘Everyone’s like Black Girl Magic!’ Chelsea told Metro.co.uk about the response she’s had from fans since it was revealed she’d be joining the group. I’ve been pumped up, and I’m loving it!
‘It was really essential for me to not just portray who I am as a mother and a real estate agent, but to really sprinkle some of that Black greatness, because I believe it’s not displayed enough,’ the 29-year-old added.
