‘Selling Sunset' Season 9 has a newcomer — Sofia Vergara's sister
Sofia Vergara's little sister, Sandra Vergara, 36, has joined the Season 9 cast of 'Selling Sunset,' Variety reported on Monday, July 14.

The 53-year-old Emmy nominee's baby sister is set to star alongside returning cast members Chrishell Stause, Emma Hernan, Chelsea Lazkani, Bre Tiesi, Mary Bonnet, Amanza Smith, Alanna Gold, Romain Bonnet, Nicole Young, and CEO twin brothers Jason Oppenheim and Brett Oppenheim.
Sandra's no stranger to the limelight, though.
While Sofia's look-alike younger sibling has a career in selling luxury real estate, she started as an entertainment journalist and was a host on E! with RuPaul and worked as a correspondent for People.
This also won't be her first time on the silver screen.
The 'Modern Family' alum's sister has also been featured in episodes of 'Nip/Tuck,' 'CSI,' and 'The Bold and the Beautiful.'

New people, of course, come with fresh drama.
'Selling Sunset' Season 9 promises to follow the Oppenheim Group family as they battle to sell multimillion-dollar properties to the wealthy, with the synopsis given to Variety reading, 'where new faces will bring new feuds into the Los Angeles real estate market. As the pressure turns up in their personal and professional lives, some might not have what it takes to keep their seat at the brokerage. As the landscape in Los Angeles quickly changes, everyone will have to adapt to a new reality.'
But Sandra isn't the only newcomer to the O Group, as cast members have also been added a little further down south.
10 All eyes will be on the younger Vergara sibling but she's not the only new addition.

10 The O Group's Orange County show, 'Selling the OC,' will also feature some fresh faces.

'Selling the OC' has gained three newbies to the Season 4 cast, including Kaylee Riccardi, Fiona Belle and Ashtyn Zerboni, per the outlet.
They will join returning cast members Jason Oppenheim, Alex Hall, Polly Brindle, Tyler Stanaland, Gio Helou, Austin Victoria and Brandi Marshall.
'Selling the OC' will feature the company's Orange County agents 'who are ready to establish their office as the top brokerage within the Oppenheim Group. As the competition heats up for some high-stakes listings, some may get burned as devastating rumors divide the team.'

Ricciardi is a veteran in the industry, with 13 years in selling luxury real estate under his belt. He got his start managing high-priced short-term rentals during Coachella, which progressed into event-based rentals with affluent clientele.
Zerboni is a former model and actress-turned-real estate agent, who has worked with the Oppenheim Group in La Jolla and Orange County.
Belle is considered the greenest addition to 'Selling the OC.'
10 However, both shows weren't without drama last season.

At 23, the Orange County native just joined the company in 2024. She has 'proud Italian roots' and is 'a first-generation college graduate.'
Both shows haven't been short on drama, with Bre Tiesi at the center of most conflicts on 'Selling Sunset' last season.
The reality star — who was married to ex-NFL star Johnny Manziel from 2018 to 2021 and shares son, Legendary, 3, with Nick Cannon — was tasked with the dilemma of telling her castmate Chelsea Lazkani that her husband was 'making out' with another woman and even helped her former athlete ex find a home.
10 Sofia's sister has also been a correspondent and host of E!

During Manziel's cameo, he recalled the emotional toll his split from Tiesi took on him. He admitted to begging, crying and pleading with her to reconsider their divorce following rumors he had cheated during their relationship.
Tiesi's co-star Mary Bonnet also aired out dirty laundry, but took a shot at producers when she accused them of orchestrating her pregnancy reveal scene.
While Sandra shared a post about her 'Selling Sunset' debut saying she was 'beyond grateful' for the 'wild' experience, her famous older sister has yet to comment on her reality TV sibling.
The Post reached out to Sofia's rep for comment.
A release date for both 'Selling Sunset' and 'Selling the OC' will be announced at a later date.

Hailey Van Lith Steals the Spotlight With Her Outfit for Sky-Lynx Game
Hailey Van Lith Steals the Spotlight With Her Outfit for Sky-Lynx Game originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Hailey Van Lith hasn't exactly established herself as a key rotation player for the Chicago Sky this season. Advertisement The 5-foot-9 guard's playing time under head coach Tyler Marsh has been limited. She was a healthy DNP in Saturday's 87-81 victory over the Minnesota Lynx, despite averaging 12.3 minutes off the bench. Van Lith appears to be trending down as well in terms of her role in the rotation, logging just 5.2 minutes per game in her last four appearances. Van Lith, however, has remained ready for when her number is called. This includes ensuring that she's dressed to impress for each of Chicago's games. This was the case yet again for the 23-year-old on Monday as the Sky hosted the Lynx at Wintrust Arena. Van Lith wore a plaid gray blazer over a white oversized button-down shirt. She paired it with a denim mini skirt, which added a youthful and casual element to her look. The former TCU standout then went a bit offbeat by pairing her white pointed-toe heels with sporty black crew socks. Advertisement Van Lith's ensemble stole the spotlight among Chicago supporters. 'Hailey 🙌🙌' a comment on Instagram read. 'HVL 🔥' said another. 'The girls are eating. HVL 🔥🔥🔥🔥" an X post read. Chicago Sky's Hailey Van Lith (right) drew the attention of fans with her latest Krzaczynski-Imagn Images "Omg them shoe Hailey 😲" another said. "Angel x HVL serving 😍🥺👏🏾" declared a supporter. "Dang HVL 😍🔥" a fan wrote. Van Lith has already gotten some game action in Monday's matchup against the Lynx. As of writing, she's played three minutes off the bench in the first half, registering one rebound and one assist. The Sky are up 49-42 at the halftime break.
