Christine Quinn opened up about her experience on "Selling Sunset" during an appearance on the "Call Her Daddy" podcast.

Quinn, 33, stars in the Netflix series that focuses on the real-estate endeavors of the luxury brokerage the Oppenheim Group.

In Wednesday's episode of "Call Her Daddy," Quinn spoke with host Alex Cooper about the struggles she's faced with the production company that runs the series, Done and Done Productions.

Adam DiVello, who created "Laguna Beach" and "The Hills," runs the company.

Quinn presented Done and Done as controlling, saying she and the cast were "working with people telling us what to do." She added that production also told the cast what to say and shared "wardrobe notes."

She went on to say that production staff would tell her and her castmates to push up their cleavage and that she fought with production about her swimwear.

"I have gotten into so many fights," she said of her relationship with production. "You will never see me, I don't think, in a two-piece bathing suit ever on the show. I only wear one-piece bathing suits."

"And that's not because I don't feel comfortable. It's just because it's my choice and I don't want people criticizing my body," she went on to say. "Whatever I do, I'm always criticized. 'She's too fat. She's too skinny. She's too fake. She's too this.'"

"So I wanted to wear a one-piece bathing suit," she said. "That was even a huge thing. They didn't want me wearing that."

"They told me to change clothes, and I was like, 'I'm absolutely not changing my wardrobe. This is what I'm comfortable in,'" she said.

Quinn told Cooper she didn't yet know if she would appear in season six of "Selling Sunset." She said she left the Oppenheim Group after forming her own brokerage, RealOpen, with her husband.

Representatives for Quinn, Done and Done Productions, the Oppenheim Group, and Netflix did not immediately respond to Insider's requests for comment.
