To mark their first major holiday together, Stause and Oppenheim spent Thanksgiving volunteering in their community.
While Stause was excited to start a family in the near future, Oppenheim wasn’t on the same page about having kids. “You can’t talk out this problem. It’s just something that, it is what it is,” Stause said of their differentiating views on parenthood in an interview with PEOPLE in 2022.
Stause and Oppenheim had to watch their relationship play out on the fifth season ofSelling Sunset, which premiered in April 2022.
