Fans fume as disgraced NFL star DeShaun Watson appears on Selling Sunset with girlfriend Jilly Anais - three years after being accused of sexual assault by multiple women

Disgraced NFL quarterback DeShaun Watson has made a cameo appearance on the latest season of Selling Sunset - leaving fans furious online.

Watson, whose return to action for the Cleveland Browns proved a disaster at the weekend, pops up with girlfriend Jilly Anais in season eight of the popular reality show, which follows a group of real estate brokers in Los Angeles.

The 28-year-old and his partner of five years feature alongside regular cast members Jason Oppenheim and Amanza Smith while hunting for a new LA pad to make the most of during the NFL offseason.

However, fans have hit out at producers Netflix for giving screen time to Watson - who was accused of sexual assault by multiple women back in 2021.

The then-Houston Texans star was hit with 26 sexual-assault lawsuits and has since settled 23 of them, with the other remaining cases expected to go to civil trial.

Despite not yet being hit with criminal charges, the NFL suspended him for 11 games during the 2022 season while also issuing a $5million fine.

Given his scandalous history, Watson's cameo on Selling Sunset has sparked outrage on social media. 

One wrote on X: 'Now why in the hell is Deshaun Watson on Selling Sunset and why are they all kiki-ing with him like he doesn’t have 30 sexual assault allegations??? 

Another posted: 'why tf is that qb on selling sunset - plssss get him off my screen'.

'I know this ain’t Deshaun Watson and his gf on the show. Please leave us alone,' said a third.

A fourth put: 'Now why they got D*shaun W*tson on Selling Sunset???'

One took aim at the creators of the show and said: 'Netflix producers allowing Deshaun Watson to be on Selling Sunset while the show tries to boast female empowerment is utterly disgusting'.

While another simply fumed: 'WHAT THE HELL IS DESHAUN WATSON DOING ON SELLING SUNSET????????'

Watson signed the then-largest guaranteed contract in NFL history when he put pen to paper on a $230m deal with the Browns, who traded six draft picks, including three first-rounders, to the Texans in return back in 2022.

After spending the majority of his time in Cleveland on the sidelines due to injury and his NFL suspension, he threw two interceptions and took six sacks in a 33-17 blowout loss against the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday.

Many are branding Watson's trade to the Browns as one of the worst in history given what it cost the organization and the little upside they have received from it, with Sunday's outing only his 13th appearance for them.
