Chrishell Stause Says She ‘Froze in Fear’ During L.A. Wildfire Evacuation
Sale of Sunset Chrishel Stause tells how she “froze in fear” during the evacuations of the LA wildfires.
The reality star, 43, shared this during her appearance on Wednesday, January 15 on Sherri that the fires and subsequent evacuation process brought back long-hidden memories of watching her house burn down as a child.
“When we had to evacuate, there was a fire like in our backyard. It was just immediately, ‘You have to go,'” she explained during the episode. “I think I was a little frozen with fear. I had kind of forgotten that when I was 12, I saw my house burn down.”
Stause added that the incident was “something you don’t think about. It happened so long ago.”

However, it led to them ‘freezing’ when it came time to evacuate. Stause credited her wife, the Australian singer G Turn over (real name Georgia Claire Flipo) led the evacuations as the reality TV star struggled due to her past experiences with fires.
‘You don’t know how you’re going to react. I guess I would have liked to think I’m good in an emergency,” Stause continued. “But this kind of showed me that I really needed a little kick in the ass, and G was there to keep me focused and so it was just nice to have them.”
Stause further praised G Flip via an Instagram Story last week as she reflected on her traumatic childhood experience.
