Christine Quinn is getting candid about how "difficult" the fourth season of "Selling Sunset" was for her.
During an interview with Entertainment Tonight Canada's Cheryl Hickey, Quinn said that while the show made the final months of her pregnancy and her transition to becoming a new mom look easy, she was struggling behind the scenes.
The 33-year-old real estate agent – who tied the knot with Christian Richard in December 2019 – revealed that she suffered from PTSD and postpartum depression after giving birth to her baby boy, Christian, in May.
"They make fun of the fact of me being late in the show. It's because I was literally having panic attacks and I was worried about my pregnancy and something going wrong," she said.
Quinn further claimed that the Oppenheim Group office felt like a "lion's den" and that her co-workers were "pitted" against her, which was "really, really difficult" to deal with at the time.
"The problem that I was facing [was] everyone was saying, 'Oh, well, you know, she's so thin. She's so this. She's so that,'" Quinn recalled. "But inside, I was dealing with PTSD."
She added that it was "extremely hurtful" to see how her experiences played out on the show.
Quinn's son Christian was delivered through an emergency cesarean section after both the mother's and the infant's heart rates began dropping and the umbilical cord became wrapped around the baby's neck.
The reality star also claimed that the way the show was edited was inaccurate and that not all scenes in the series were in chronological order.
She said that after she had given birth, she was shown to be doing yoga on the show. However, the realtor said she was actually pregnant in that yoga scene but was "edited from ... the boobs up."
Quinn went on to recall the intense backlash the yoga scene sparked on social media and the comments she received at the time, such as: "I can’t believe you’re doing yoga two weeks after giving birth after having an emergency C-section."
Quinn previously slammed the "beyond f—king sick" claims that she faked her pregnancy because the timeline of her delivery didn't coincide with what fans saw on the show.
She pointed out on Twitter that Season 4 was filmed in the span of six months and said that it took her four months before she could work out again following her delivery.
The model slammed those who accused her of faking her pregnancy and asked them to apologize to her. "For all y'all still mad [about] pregnancy gate, please go look at my IG stories. And apologize. This is seriously so hurtful," she tweeted.
"Selling Sunset" Season 4 is streaming now on Netflix.
