Mary Fitzgerald has confirmed that Selling Sunset will return for a ninth series despite an ongoing row between cast members.
The eighth season of the US reality programme dropped last week with 11 episodes full of glitzy real estate, controversial outfits, catty clashes and personal drama.
Old rivalries resurfaced and new cast members shaked things up at the Oppenheim Group from accusations of infidelity to emotional confrontations over past traumas meaning the TV staple didn't disappoint, and it appears even more episodes are on their way.
Speaking at the National Reality TV Awards, Mary, who has appeared on Selling Sunset since season one, revealed: "Season nine is on the cards. I don't know if I'm officially allowed to say that but if we were doing it then we'll be starting filming in the next month or so."

"Season eight was absolutely insane and very dramatic. The drama is still going on and we don't even have cameras rolling so it's been very, very interesting."
While filming the show, Bre Tiesi dropped a life-changing bombshell about co-star Chelsea Lazkani's marriage after a friend told her Chelsea's husband had been spotted with another woman in a hotel in Hollywood. Also, Nicole Young made a scandalous accusation that Emma Herman had a fling with a married man.
Since the the cameras stopped rolling, the drama has taken to social media with both Chrishell Stause and Chelsea slamming Nicole over the "rumour" about Emma. Chelsea has also publicly slammed Bre after an explosive row unfolded on Instagram.
Season eight is the third Selling Sunset series to feature the ongoing feud between Chrishell and Nicole. In season six, when Nicole joined the cast, the two came to blows over a past listing and it all came to a head during a group dinner in Palm Springs where Chrishell accused Nicole of being on drugs.
Chrishell has also previously accused Nicole of making stuff up and lying just to get more screen time on the show. In screenshots shared to social media, Chrishell exposed Nicole's previously friendly messages that show she was on good terms with Chrishell before she started filming.
Chrishell also accused her of fabricating their feud so she could feature more on the series. In season 8, Nicole apologises to Chrishell following an incident on social media where Nicole thanked someone for defending her. In the same comment, that person was being homophobic to Chrishell. The two were on better terms after the apology, but now Chrishell wants nothing to do with her.
Despite keeping out of the majority of the drama, Mary has revealed that she's put pen to paper and is set to release her first book, Selling Sunshine, later this month. She said: "I've got my new book coming out so I open up even more on things I've never spoken about on the show."
"I think fans only know about the present day and what we talk about on the show but my book goes into everything that made who I am today and things that help me get through stuff and I think people will really like it."
Selling Sunset is available to watch on Netflix
