Chrishell Stause says she sold her wedding ring after her divorce with Justin Hartley and put the money toward her $3.3 million house

• Chrishell Stause bought a $3.3 million house in LA following her 2019 divorce from Justin Hartley.
• In her memoir, she writes that she sold her wedding ring and put the money toward the purchase.

Chrishell Stause sold her wedding ring following her divorce from "This Is Us" star Justin Hartley and put the earnings toward the purchase of her Los Angeles home, she writes in her new memoir.

The "Selling Sunset" star, 40, was married to Hartley, 45, for two years before he filed for divorce in 2019. Following the breakup, Stause rented a one-bedroom apartment in Hollywood Hills before eventually buying her $3.3 million home in June 2021.

In her new book, "Under Construction," which hit shelves on Tuesday, the licensed real-estate agent reveals that she sold her wedding ring and used the resulting funds to help purchase her four-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bathroom abode in Hollywood Hills.

"Moving into my home, a home I'd worked hard to earn (okay, fine, selling my wedding ring helped), was a major milestone that I won't forget," Stause writes.

The Kentucky native, who was homeless at multiple points during her childhood, recognizes that "it's tough to get out of the cycle of leasing."

"I spent my entire childhood acutely aware of this fact. The toughest part is the down payment, and I bought this place when I was just about to turn forty," she writes.

The soap star's real-estate hunt is featured on season four of "Selling Sunset," which is currently available to stream on Netflix. And though Jason Oppenheim, the brokerage's founder and president, aided Stause, she denied reports that he was behind the deal.

"I just got told that a story came out about my house, and it says that Jason was the agent on it," she wrote on her Instagram story in June 2021, as reported by Us Weekly, adding, "I really don't feel like this happens to men. I was my agent. I did it."

She continued: "Yes, I used Jason to help me — he's my broker. But I was the damn agent. Give me some credit, thank you. I worked really hard on this and it wouldn't hurt to get new possible clients if it's gonna be all over the place. Credit where credit is due, that's all. It's a constant battle to let people know I am a real hardworking agent, not just for TV. And this didn't help."

Following the divorce, which was finalized in February 2021, Hartley married his "The Young and The Restless" costar Sofia Pernas.

Stause dated "Dancing With the Stars" professional Keo Motsepe for several months before they broke up in February 2021. She later got into a relationship with Oppenheim, but the costars went their separate ways in December 2021.
