The story, neutrally told

Right · 2Chrishell Stause, the 45-year-old Selling Sunset star, announced on Instagram on Monday 26 October 2026 that she and G Flip are no longer together. Right · 1In the video, Stause said the two had agreed to treat the public separation with love and respect, and that this was not hard for her because she is still in love with G Flip. Right · 2She said she does not have all the information or the reasons for the split, and no reason was given in either outlet's report.

Right · 1Stause said she feels like "a little bit of a failure", called the situation hard and painful, and said she had an "amazing over four years" with G Flip. She added that she will always love G Flip and wishes them both happiness. Right · 1She said she chose a video over "a cold written statement" because followers had been so supportive. Right · 2G Flip, a 33-year-old Australian singer-songwriter who uses they/them pronouns, responded about two hours later (the Daily Mail says "hours later") with a screenshot of a written note rather than a video.

Right · 1In the note, G Flip said they will always love Stause, that the two will always share a special connection, and that they cherish their memories. They said their head and heart felt very heavy, that they were not able to talk, and asked for privacy. Right · 2The two met at a Halloween party in 2021 and went public in 2022. They held a non-legally binding wedding in Las Vegas in May 2023 and later renewed their vows several times, including a medieval-themed celebration in Los Angeles in July 2025. Right · 2Stause was previously married to actor Justin Hartley, and their divorce was finalised in 2021.

Right · 2The reports differ on how long the relationship or marriage lasted. The Daily Mail headline says three years of marriage while its text says four, and its text puts the start of dating at about five months after the 2021 party. IJR says "more than four years" together. The wedding was not legally binding.

Every sentence links to the reporting it rests on. The pill in front of each says where its sources sit: Left, Centre or Right when one side supplies at least half of them, Mixed when they are evenly split. The number is how many outlets it cites.

Framing
Both outlets treat the split as celebrity news built around Stause's emotional video, with her quotes and G Flip's reply, plus a recap of the couple's relationship history. The Daily Mail frames it more dramatically and in more detail.
Emphasis
Stause's tears and vulnerability, her feeling of failure, G Flip's request for privacy, and the timeline of weddings and vow renewals. The Daily Mail adds the couple's earlier partners and Stause's divorce from Hartley.
Leaves out or plays down
Neither outlet reports a reason for the split, any comment from representatives, or any legal steps. The wedding was not legally binding, so no divorce proceedings are mentioned.
Charged language
“tearfully”“heartbreakingly”“Perhaps most interestingly”“bitter divorce”
