In the words of Laguna Beach and The Hills alum Kristin Cavallari, Kelsey and Juliette's friendship is completely "dunzo" due to bikini drama and trust issues. In a recent interview promoting the fourth installment of Siesta Key with Us Weekly, Juliette shared where her and Kelsey's friendship stood and stated, "Our friendship is, like, effectively over for now. You’re going to have to see it play out." 

She goes on to say, "Throughout the season, a lot of stuff happens between Kelsey and I and has a lot to do with the way we view ourselves [and] our personal issues. And that kind of, like, brings us head-to-head a lot of times. It's sad. We were best friends and now I don’t know what we are."

According to Juliette, it appears that her issues with Kelsey stemmed from her basically telling Sam Logan — Juliette's boyfriend — that Juliette was a golddigger back in Season 3. 

Juliette talked with Hollywood Life in an exclusive interview and told them, “[She] told Sam, behind my back, that I’m a golddigger and that I’m still in love with Alex [Kompo], and that I don’t even really like him. Those were all things that really hurt me. And she kind of hoped I would just let it go and forget it.”

Kelsey also chatted with the media outlet and explained that, between filming, she and Juliette were still living together, and she apologized many times to Juliette.

She concluded with, "I did mess up with that completely. That kind of sucked. But I’m at where I’m at and I’m focusing on me. I think both of us are doing great separately. We’re just better not as friends, and that’s okay.”

It will be interesting to see how all the drama unfolds between Kelsey and Juliette this season.

Siesta Key airs Wednesdays at 8 p.m. EST on MTV.
