Flipping Out's Jeff Lewis reveals Bravo have not renewed his contract amid furious row with co-star Jenni Pulos and legal drama with surrogate
Jeff Lewis is out of a job after 11 years on Bravo.
The controversial Flipping Out star revealed his contract with Bravo had expired on Monday, sharing a picture of his going away card.
'I guess there's no going away party?' wrote the real estate speculator turned TV star, adopting a sad face.

While obviously humorous, the card did not shy away from highlighting Lewis' faults, with captions such as 'loser', 'your 15 minutes are up', and 'better luck with radio'.
The card also featured Jeff with a red cross through his face - after he tweeted a picture with his co-star Jenni Pulos' face obscured. The two are no longer on speaking terms, following a blow-out argument while filming the latest series of the show.
Seemingly prepared for the end of his main income stream, Lewis listed his stunning ultra-luxe villa above the famous Sunset Strip for $7.95 million on Friday.
Lewis, 48, found fame as the star of Flipping Out, which began as a show about flipping houses shortly before the financial crash of 2007.

The show successfully navigated the crisis, with Lewis adjusting his focus to concentrate on interior design.
However in the past year there have been several negative stories about Lewis - who along with Bravo is the subject of a lawsuit by the surrogate mother of his daughter.
Alexandra Trent claims she had been assured the birth of the child two years ago would not be filmed for television, with doctors present at the birth backing her claims.

Not only was the birth of Monroe in 2016 broadcast, but Trent said in court docs she was 'deeply damaged' and 'depressed' by a 'disgusting' remark Lewis made about her genitalia during the episode.
He said in an interview snippet, 'If I was a surrogate, and I had known there was going to be an audience, I probably would have waxed. And that was the shocking part for Gage [his boyfriend]: I don't think Gage had ever seen a vagina, let alone one that big.'
Lewis also angered Bravo executives by publicly discussing contract negotiations.
In an interview two weeks ago, Lewis said he felt he was 'punished' by Bravo and was 'looking for a job'.
