Whitner Slagsvol is integrating into the Southern Charm group. A male addition to the cast is welcome, considering the rest of the boys simple bicker amongst themselves. And Whitner, so far, stays out of the drama. The lawyer even answers on Watch What Happen Live as diplomatically as possible.

His demeanor is a nice balance. And it’s interesting to get his perspective on the rest of the group. Host Andy Cohen asked him to choose between his female costars to answer a series of questions.

Salley Carson got some heat from Whitner Slagsvol on WWHL

Salley Carson was Whitner’s pick for several of the questions. Some of the less flattering ones too. While Molly O’Connell makes Whitner “laugh the most” and the co-star that he would “trust the most with a secret,” Salley was picked as the girl “most hungry for attention.”

Indeed, Salley has made some kind of impression after flirting with both Craig Conover and Austen Kroll. She even expressed her intent to hook up with the latter Southern Charm Star as soon as he was single again. The term “pick me girl” has come up.

Meanwhile, Molly was Whitner’s pick for the group’s girl’s girl. Certainly, Venita Aspen should have been considered for that role considering how much she put up with in her friendship with Salley. The professional influencer expressed her concern about Craig, only to have Salley disregard her feelings to pursue him.

One could give it Salley that she is “consistently the life of the party.” Whitner certainly did. However, he also chose the Medvac representative as the new gal that he “would be least surprised to learn cheated on a partner.”

Speaking of being a Medvac representative, Whitner didn’t give Salley any credit for her hard work. He replied, “none of them” when asked which of the ladies was “most ambitious and career-oreinted.” The Southern Charm newbie also couldn’t choose one that he found “most intimidating.”

TELL US – ARE YOU SURPRISED BY WHITNER’S RESPONSES? IS HE RIGHT ABOUT SALLEY?

Last time on Southern Charm, Austen’s birthday dinner turned into a blowout fight with Craig. The two hurled the most hurtful accusations and insults at each other, with Shep literally caught in the middle. At the end of the night, Austen told Craig he hated him. Before that, Venita told Madison that she missed her friendship with Salley. Craig and Charley went on a successful first date. But Salley realized she made a mistake going for Craig, now that she was left with those chickens. What happened on Southern Charm Season 11 this week?

What happened on Southern Charm Season 11 Episode 10?

This week, the group heads to Whitner’s family farm. As one relationship ends, two new romantic connections appear to blossom. But Salley’s gossip about Craig makes Charley question her motives. And makes Craig more wary of Salley than ever. Here’s what else happened on Southern Charm Season 11 Episode 10, “Two Truths and a Single Lie.”

Everyone’s still in shock from Craig and Austen’s fight

Shep, Craig, and Austen are often able to bounce back from their fights, but this one was different. To Shep, it felt like a breakup. Whitney says the same. Austen leans on his cats, and Madison, for emotional support. Austen calling Madison first to be a supportive friend in an emotional crisis now … they’ve come so far! Craig doesn’t want to think about the fight, instead focusing on things that make him happy … like Charley. 

There is hope for one friendship in this group, as Salley and Molly meet up for a head massage/wash and blow-dry. Despite their fight weeks ago, Salley misses her friend. I get it, Molly is a gem. Molly is slightly skeptical that Salley just wants to make up because she has no one else amidst the drama with Charley and Venita. Speaking of, Salley blames Venita for her problems with Molly. For now, the two girls vow not to let anyone come between them again.

Whitner bring the cast home

After he didn’t appear on Southern Charm the past two weeks, this is a Whitner-central episode. The friend group goes to his family farm compound. We learn why his family farm is named Itchy Grass – it’s because he and his sisters thought the tall grass was itchy. And we learn that Jimmy Buffett was his uncle!

Madison is going with the group to Whitner’s, even at 34 weeks pregnant. She jokes that she might give birth there. Brett wisely doesn’t trust any of the group to deliver their baby. The rest of the friend group carpools in groups of three.

It’ll be the first time Craig and Austen see each other since the dinner, so everyone braces themselves for tension. Craig just hopes that Austen doesn’t “attack” him on the trip.

Is there already trouble in paradise for Craig and Charley?

While driving Molly and Charley, Salley tells Charley that she heard Craig is talking about her to the guys. He’s convinced she’ll fall in love with him, and he doesn’t want to break her heart. Molly’s facial reactions are priceless. In a confessional, Molly says, “I love her, but Salley is a jealous psycho.”

Charley can’t see Craig saying that, but Salley insists he’s the problem. As Molly pointed out weeks ago, Salley has taken on Venita’s role as Craig’s number one hater. And she’s doing to Charley what Venita did to her. 

Austen drops a breakup bombshell

Austen roasts Craig while in the car with Rod and Venita, but neither one of them believe Austen will ever cut Craig out for good. Rodrigo says it’s like Brokeback Mountain, that Austen wishes he could quit Craig.

But Austen did break up … with Audrey. For the first time, instead of waiting for a girl to break up with him, he made the move. Audrey was the perfect girlfriend, but he still felt like something was missing. Austen asks Venita and Rod to keep it quiet, to avoid Shep and Craig’s “told you so” moments.

Just then, as if she had an “Austen is single” spidey sense, Salley calls to fill them in on the Craig gossip. Charley already says she doesn’t believe it, that no one is falling in love and she’s “alone.” Austen jokes he’ll be alone with her. When Salley mentions his girlfriend, he murmurs “We’ll talk about that.” Realizing he might be single, Salley’s incredibly giddy. Rod jokes that Austen shouldn’t rush into a hand job with Salley. 

Salley has completely moved on from Craig to Austen

As the group meets up at the pool, Austen and Craig completely avoid each other. Salley asks Venita about Audrey, but Venita says her lips are sealed, because she values loyalty. Salley misses how close they were, but Venita’s reaction to Craig’s rejection still bothers her. Venita calls it a misunderstanding and insists she was never mad at Salley, only Craig. Salley admits she sees Craig for what he is now.

When Madison arrives, Salley gushes that Ausen looks “sexy as f*ck.” Madison says “too soon!” and confirms his split from Audrey. Madison has become his closest confidant, and seemingly one of the first people he told. 

Is Salley trying to come between Charley and Craig?

As they flirt by the pool, Charley tells Craig what Salley mentioned in the car. But she doesn’t believe it. Craig is predictably furious that people are gossiping and meddling in his personal life. He accuses Salley of being jealous, and Charley agrees. She wants to believe Salley told her this to be a protective friend, but … she doesn’t. She and Craig reaffirm their feelings for each other, with big smiles. 

Craig confronts Salley, who claims she heard it from Shep. At this point, it sounds to me like Shep mentioned the string of fears and questions about dating that Craig talked about at Austen’s dinner, but it got lost in translation as him being condescending towards Charley. Craig denies saying it, and asks why she doesn’t give him the benefit of the doubt. He tells Salley he can’t trust her anymore. He thinks she’s intentionally trying to come between him and Charley because she’s jealous. Salley walks away ranting about “all these MANCHILDREN!”

Salley still insists to Charley that Craig said it, and asks her, “Who do you believe?” Just then, Craig walks by, saying, “Keep talking about me, it’s fine.” “We’re not talking about you! Not everything is about you!” Salley fires back. We’ve come a long way from those late night hot tub parties.

Craig is more wary of Salley than ever

The guests head to their cabins (except Craig, who gets a fancy tent). Madison and Venita’s view is a little Friday the 13th’s Camp Crystal Lake … but at least there are some random knives in their cabin should Jason find them!

Rodrigo and Austen (who wears a silly hat to distract from his first pimple in years) have a more serene vista. In the second Brokeback Mountain reference of the episode, Austen calls it Brokeback Pond. He gets melancholy about Audrey, but also admits to a sense of relief. Rod loved Audrey and wanted it to work out, but he’s glad Austen cut it off instead of wasting more of Audrey’s time. 

Craig goes over to Shep’s barn loft, and tells him what Salley said. Shep denies saying that. Craig feels triggered because it’s a “misrepresentation” of who he is. Shep agrees that Craig isn’t a “big swinging dick” kind of guy who would say something like that. Shep says “no one is more respectful to females than Craig Conover,” which…are we sure? “He thinks white doves are gonna come out from the trees, like Cinderella!”

Regardless, the ordeal makes Craig turn against Salley even more. He calls her a “gossip,” and Shep agrees with him that she’s “an agent of chaos.”

TELL US – WHAT DID YOU THINK OF SOUTHERN CHARM SEASON 11 EPISODE 10? DO YOU BELIEVE CRAIG OR SALLEY? WERE YOU SURPRISED AUSTEN BROKE UP WITH AUDREY?

The post Southern Charm Season 11 Episode 10 Recap: Farm-to-Table Gossip appeared first on Reality Tea.

Things are getting messy on Southern Charm Season 11! Last week, Craig shocked everyone at Miss Patricia’s guy’s dinner by admitting he’d get back together with Paige if she asked. He and Austen saw each other for the first time since Whitner’s party and agreed to a tentative truce. Meanwhile, Venita warned Salley that Craig would break her heart, but Salley asked to find that out for herself. Charley told her sister that she likes Craig, but is worried about Salley’s reaction. What happened this week on Southern Charm Season 11?

What happened on Southern Charm Season 11 Episode 7?

If last week was a bit of a filler episode, this week the chickens come home to roost, literally and figuratively. Salley finally admits her feelings to Craig when they go to buy chickens, and it goes as poorly as expected. Especially since it’s right after he asked Charley out. Later on, Madison holds a slumber party for the girls in her new home while Brett and Hudson are away. After a dramatic walkout, things really get messy when the guys crash the party. Truths come out, and someone declares revenge. Here’s what happened on Southern Charm Season 11 Episode 7, “Fowl Play.”

Craig asks Charley out

This week’s episode opens with Salley setting up her chicken coop. She admits to her friend that she decided to get chickens because Craig said he’d go with her to pick them out. Oof, these cringey scenes seem to contradict Salley’s claims about Craig on Watch What Happens Live.

While Salley gets chickens just to spend more time with Craig, he drops in on Charley’s art gallery event with his assistant Jack. Craig mentions his friend’s oyster farm, and casually asks Charley if she wants to go. She says yes. Later on, she tells her mom she’s not sure it’s a date, but her mom thinks it sounds like one. Charley doesn’t tell Salley because she’s too nervous how she’ll react.

Whitner perfectly sums up Craig and Austen’s dynamic

Austen meets up for beers with Whitner, saying it’s nice to have a guy friend not named Craig. Somewhere in Cuba, Shep asks, “What about me?” Austen still sees their guy’s dinner conversation as a non-apology, as real apologies aren’t followed by a “but.” He misses how easy and smooth their friendship used to be.

Whitner may be new to the group, but he already sees the frenemies’ dynamic perfectly. To start, he knows that Austen appreciates that it doesn’t sound like Whitner lectures him when they talk. “What I’m witnessing here is more of a rivalry than a friendship,” Whitner notes. “Austen has a bit of a victim complex, so he’s gonna feel like he’s being attacked. And Craig has a narcissistic streak in him, so he’s gonna wanna be controlling. Whether or not those two pieces fit together…to be determined.”

Rodrigo spills tea to Venita, Leva, and Molly

Venita grabs lunch with Leva, Rodrigo, and Molly. Rodrigo says that Salley stopped working out with him and Molly, and Leva jokes that it’s because she was too busy with Craig. Venita tells the group about her fight with Salley last week, and Leva shades Salley as “not a girl’s girl.”

Venita shares that she struggles with feeling abandoned by friends. It goes back to high school, when her best friend since infancy suddenly dropped her junior year. And, of course, there was the JT fiasco.

The group agrees that Craig has no intention of seriously dating Salley. Rodrigo says that Craig’s already sworn not to get involved with anyone who slept with Shep. So, Salley was always out of the running!

Salley gets a reality check

Craig and Salley buy chickens together. Salley says she’s dating with intent to marry and have kids, something she knows Craig also wants. She tells him that when she wants something, she goes for it. Then she tells him she’s caught feelings, “Like, I can date you.”

But Craig responds, “I don’t see it,” adding, “We’re just friends.” Salley asks why they hung out in the hot tub until 4 am then. Craig admits that at first he thought something might happen, but then it didn’t. “I’ve never been in this situation where a girl really thought I liked her and I didn’t,” he says in a confessional. Ouch! He adds that Salley is “reading into our interactions in a fantasy way.” Salley insists he’s been hitting on her for weeks and that she’s not delusional. They awkwardly agree to just be friends.

It’s not quite as bad as Landon’s infamous “Maybe I love you” moment with Shep. But it’s still pretty rough.

Later on, Salley accompanies Madison to her ultrasound. She wants the happily ever after that Madison has. “I’m so alone,” Salley admits, “I don’t even have anyone to drunk text.” She tells Madison about Craig’s rejection. Madison agrees that Craig led Salley on, but is probably denying it in a typically Southern, “I was just being nice!” way. “He’s clueless,” she adds. Salley references their texts, when she said she should’ve stayed the night and Craig said she could’ve. When a producer asks, she says there’s no way she could’ve misinterpreted that text, and Craig was definitely coming onto her. She also tells Madison that Venita saw it all coming.

Craig wants out of Salley’s tornado

Madison throws a sleepover for the girls while the guys go out for beers. She tells Venita about Craig rejecting Salley, and Venita can’t hide her vindicated smile. When Salley tells the girls about it, Venita blurts out a told you so. She asks why Salley didn’t call her, and Salley reminds her she said not to come crying after Craig broke her heart. Venita says she’s not mad at Salley, who says she has no reason to be. That makes Venita too upset, so she leaves the slumber party. 

Whitner mentions that Austen and Salley are like besties, which is news to Craig. Craig tells the guys he asked Charley out. He says they’ve never been able to hang out away from Salley. When Rodrigo mentions Salley’s crush, Craig wonders if he hung out with her too much. He claims the real reason for those hot tub sessions was to see Charley. Austen is offended (and possibly projecting) that Craig could disregard his friendship with Salley so easily.

When he mentions how this could tear apart Salley and Charley, Craig says that’s not his responsibility. Then he goes off on Salley. He claims that she always butted in when he tried to talk to Charley. “Salley’s chaos, man. It’s a tornado. You never know who’s gonna get sucked into it, and you never know where that tornado’s gonna head.” Austen says he doesn’t think her chaos is intentional. But Craig is over it. He’s over everything being about Salley, even his date with Charley. When Austen tries to defend Salley’s “good heart,” Craig sees it as Austen refusing to be happy for him. He dramatically storms out and Ubers home. Hey, dramatic walk outs are something he and Venita have in common!

Austen and Rodrigo gossip with the girls

Rodrigo, Austen, and Whitner crash the sleepover (did you catch Rodrigo mocking Austen’s “Madison!” when they walked in?). Can I just say, Austen putting his feet up, sipping wine, and gossiping with the girls is such a funny image. He looks so happy!

Austen thinks Craig is mad at Salley. He tells her everything Craig said- that they’re done, that Salley’s a tornado that leaves a path of destruction, and that he’s been thinking this for a long time. And that he doesn’t think Charley can be the person she wants to be when Salley’s around. Salley’s pissed and brings up the texts. Then Rodrigo drops that Craig asked Charley out. Molly’s reaction face is incredible.

Salley claims Craig is manipulating both her and Charley. She claims it will take Charley longer to realize that, but she will eventually. “I wish he was here right now so I could slap him across the face,” Salley rants. She promises, “I’ll show him a f*cking tornado.” Charley looks scared, and that’s where we leave off this week.

Southern Charm Season 11 is back after a holiday hiatus! Last time, Craig was furious when Austen skipped his pool party. Venita and Salley were called out for gossiping about Molly’s vagina (specifically her labiaplasty). Molly confronted Salley and called her a “malicious” person who needs therapy. Speaking of, Craig promised a concerned Madison that he’d go back to therapy after his recent outbursts. Craig, Salley, and Charley once again ended the night in his hot tub. What happened this week on Southern Charm Season 11 Episode 6?

What happened on Southern Charm Season 11 Episode 6? 

This week, Madison and Shep move into their new homes, with Brett jokingly telling the movers to throw away Austen’s giant teddy bear. Salley and Venita continue to be at an impasse in their friendship. Miss Patricia prepares for her annual guy’s dinner, hoping to avoid the chaos of years past. Austen and Craig see each other for the first time since their fight at Whitner’s birthday. And Craig admits something shocking about his relationship with Paige. What else happened on Southern Charm Season 11 Episode 6, “A Medium Rare Apology,” this week? 

Is Shep the Warren Beatty of Charleston? 

Shep’s cousin Marcie, who now has two young children, returns to Southern Charm this week. The female Shep may have settled down, but hold your shock … Shep doesn’t plan to any time soon. When Shep says he’s looking for a “fellow traveler,” Marcie slightly roasts him by saying, “Sounds like you’re looking for someone flexible to fit your needs.” He admits, “I sound like an egomaniac.” Shep compares himself to Warren Beatty, who famously didn’t settle down until his 50s. But he feels like he’s making adult strides by moving into a big new house, at least. 

Venita and Salley are at an impasse 

Venita and Salley meet up to try and hash things out. But they can’t stop commenting on how awkward it is. Getting to the point, Salley refuses to stop hanging out with Craig. Venita asks what the end goal is, reminding Salley she wants to be a wife, and accusing Craig of wasting her time. But Salley is just having fun. Salley is frustrated with Venita trying to tell her what to do. Venita insists she’s trying to protect Salley from getting her heart broken. She warns that Craig will “walk you like a dog on a leash until he is done with you.” Salley insists Venita let her find that out for herself, and walks out. 

Molly won’t let Whitney live down that cupcake comment 

Molly stops by Whitney’s lair (seriously, why does he call it that) to give his belated birthday gift. It’s a cupcake, referencing his body shaming comment last season. Molly refuses to let him live it down- nor should she! 

When she first hooked up with Whitney a decade ago, Molly thought they’d date. Which seems silly now. Whitney rightfully acknowledges she’s too good for him. After dragging each other’s bad tattoos, Molly plays him her music. Whitney says it’s not for him, but admits he has bad taste in music. Cue the flashbacks to him embarrassingly playing guitar over the years.

Molly starts to clue Whitney in on the drama, since he hasn’t been in the group much this year. She tells him about Salley’s gossiping, which forces her to reveal her labiaplasty. I cannot emphasize enough how much I did not want to hear Whitney describe labia surgery, but Southern Charm forced me to anyway. 

Will Charley go for Craig?

Charley meets up with her older sister this week, and shares more about her backstory. Her mom was married three times, and Charley doesn’t speak to her biological father. But she’s glad her mom found the right man the third time, who raised her. Through therapy, Charley realized she was her mom’s “consoler” growing up. She thinks this is why she has a hard time prioritizing herself now. She tells her sister she likes Craig, but Salley likes him too. Her sister encourages her to go for it. 

Craig’s ChatGPT breakthrough about Austen 

Speaking of, Craig meets Whitner for beers at By The Way (his and Austen’s bar). He apparently had a breakthrough in therapy with … ChatGPT. It helped him realize why Austen triggers him. Austen staying in a relationship with Audrey despite not wanting to marry her brings back Craig’s unresolved feelings about Paige. It’s an interesting theory, at least. Whitner can sympathize with and relate to Craig’s post-breakup blues, considering his fiance dumped him. 

After crying to ChatGPT, Craig feels like he can move on. Now, he’s wondering what “the rules are about making out” and if he has to date someone after. Whitner brings up the two single women who spend a lot of time in his hot tub, encouraging Craig to ask one of them out. Whitner says that, after what he went through, he has no fear about asking girls out. He even got stood up on Valentine’s Day! Whitner, I have a feeling a lot of Southern Charm fans are about to ask you out via DMs.

Miss Patricia prepares for this year’s guy’s dinner 

It’s time again for Miss Patricia’s guy’s dinner. She claims she started the tradition because the guys give her the best gossip. While preparing this year, Patricia has some issues with her current butler Randy. Especially after he accidentally melted his cell phone in the oven! Michael is just too tough of an act for another butler to follow. RIP Michael, we all miss you. 

This year’s theme is East Asian, and Miss Patricia claims the dragon adorning her china represents love and friendship. She hopes that means Austen and Craig can mend things. But Austen is dreading the dinner. Audrey is similarly offended by Craig’s comments about their relationship. 

Whitner finally meets Patricia, and Whitney’s British doctor friend Stephen joins the group this year. Patricia warns Stephen and Whitner about the past disasters, like when Craig broke a chair and spilled wine, or when Whitney fell down. Whitney isn’t as harsh on Shep as last year, when he kept making digs about Sienna. But he is offended by Shep’s casual shirt. 

Patricia grills the guys about their love lives 

When Patricia asks if he and Audrey will get married anytime soon, Austen answers “no” so definitively and emphatically that Stephen can’t help but laugh. Oof, maybe Craig has a point about Austen stringing Audrey along? 

When asked who he has an eye on, Whitner shares that he was interested in Charley. He even asked if she wanted to get a drink sometime at Salley’s singles party. However, Charley shot him down by saying she’d go if it were a “group thing.” Ouch! 

Patricia brings up the hot tub, and Craig says no one’s even kissed yet. What are they possibly doing in that hot tub until 4 am then? Stephen says Craig seems like the serious relationship type, and Craig reveals that he would get back with Paige if she asked. Everyone is stunned by this … because that ship sailed a long time ago. 

Where do Craig and Austen go from here? 

All in all, disaster was avoided at dinner, though there was some debate over if Stephen broke his chair. 

Afterwards, Craig and Austen chat one on one. The extremely loud frogs outside add to the tension. Austen feels like he has to play a game of chess with Craig, because he never knows how he’ll react. Craig insists Austen’s digs triggered his feelings about being hurt by friends. He apologizes again, emphasizes he’s in therapy (hopefully not just with ChatGPT) and asks for grace. Craig misses Austen, and Austen can’t help but care about him. But he warns Craig that if another outburst happens, they’re done. For now, Austen is keeping his expectations of Craig low. 

Next week on Southern Charm, it looks like Venita might be right, because Craig asks Charley out just as Salley admits she’s catching feelings. We’ll have to watch to see the fallout.

The post Southern Charm Season 11 Episode 6 Recap: Craig’s Crying to ChatGPT appeared first on Reality Tea.

Welcome back to the recaps for Southern Charm Season 11! Last week, Craig and Austen continued their blowout fight at Whitner’s birthday. Craig mentioned that Shep heard Austen was talking to another girl. Austen denied this, and didn’t accept Craig’s apology. After getting his kittens Piper and Martini, Austen decided to visit Audrey. And he started to doubt that Craig and Shep were his real friends. What happened this week on Southern Charm Season 11 Episode 5, “Loose Lips and Deep Rifts?”

What happened on Southern Charm Season 11 Episode 5?

This week, Craig throws a Memorial Day party. But Austen doesn’t go, which triggers Craig’s anger about their fight. After getting caught gossiping about Molly’s, err, lady business, Salley continues to have tension with Molly and Venita. Even though everyone can tell Craig’s more into Charley, it seems that he and Salley took their much-talked-about hot tub nights to the next level. What else happened on Southern Charm Season 11 Episode 5, “Loose Lips and Deep Rifts?”

Madison catches Patricia up on the latest gossip

Madison stops by Patricia’s to fill her in on the group’s drama. As they talk about Madison’s pregnancy, Patricia reveals that when she had Whitney, she was in labor for two days without an epidural! That’s one reason she decided one child was enough. Madison jokes that she’ll breastfeed if Teddi likes silicone implants. Patricia jokes she tried breastfeeding for about twenty minutes.

Then Madison tells Patricia about Craig’s love triangle. Madison thinks Craig is more into Charley. She tells Patricia about all the late night hot tub hangouts, but specifies no hookups seemed to happen yet. Patricia wonders what happened to good old fashioned sex in a bed!

Madison also brings up Craig’s outburst at Whitner’s party. Patricia is surprised Craig got so upset at such innocuous comments. Madison thinks the real reason Craig is spinning out, drinking again, and having late night hot tub parties is because he’s not over Paige.

Venita checks in on Austen

Venita calls Austen as he’s visiting Audrey in Charlotte. She’s seemingly the only person in the group who thinks Austen and Audrey can make it (alas, we already know they don’t). Austen introduces her to Martini and Piper via FaceTime.

Austen also tells her that he finally returned Shep’s phone calls. He thinks that Shep’s apology was genuine, unlike Craig’s. Venita says Shep is acting like a real friend. They both touch on their mutual annoyance with Craig. And it turns out Venita isn’t the only one side eyeing Salley’s crush. Because Austen accuses Salley of enabling Craig.

Speaking of, Salley tells Charley that Craig is taking her to buy chickens for her backyard. Charley thinks it’s unnecessary since Salley lives right across from Walgreens. Charley also worries that she puts others needs before her own too much. She knows Salley likes Craig, but if she cut off every guy a friend of hers had a thing for, there’d be no guys left in Charleston.

Molly finds her voice again

Last season, Molly rediscovered her love of the euphonium. This year, she’s returning to another musical pursuit – singing. She’s even recording songs with a guitarist named Keith (do we know if this is the guitarist beau she mentioned on Watch What Happens Live last week?). Molly’s parents always encouraged her singing, even saying she could be the next Taylor Swift. But she has horrible performance anxiety. As a child, she got so nervous during a piano recital that she made a mistake and ran down the aisle! Now, she’s working up to sing live for an audience again. She has an amazing voice!

Craig’s Memorial Day party is one to remember

This week, Craig throws a Memorial Day party for the whole cast, even inviting Venita and Austen. Kory also attends. While Paige took over party planning in years past, Craig has his assistant Jack help him now. He makes sure the party has pina coladas, because they’re Charley’s favorite. He also has a signature cocktail using the honey from his hive.

Venita shows up with towels and everything. Whitner, who has a real job, has to take a work call during the party, and isn’t thrilled Craig held it on a Wednesday. Salley and Charley show up together. When Craig takes Charley over to the bar, Salley follows them like a third wheel.

Madison can feel Paige’s absence in the party planning. Especially because there’s so few umbrellas – people need to sit in the shade! But Rodrigo notices Paige’s leftover touches in the house, like chairs she definitely picked out.

But Austen doesn’t come, which enrages Craig. He claims Austen never goes to Charlotte in the middle of the week, barely visits anymore, and doesn’t see himself marrying Audrey anyway. When Shep says Austen probably wouldn’t feel comfortable at the party, Craig flips out and shouts, “Why!” Shep thinks Austen wants Craig to admit he was wrong and give a big apology, but that will never happen. He thinks Craig has a problem showing remorse.

The highlight of the party? Probably when Shep jumped into the pool wearing a bald eagle speedo, a gun holster, prop gun, and George Washington wig.

Venita and Salley get caught gossiping about Molly

Elsewhere, Molly confronts Venita that she heard Salley spread rumors about her vagina. At Whitner’s party, she told Rodrigo that Molly just got a new vagina and had a sugar daddy pay for it. Despite Molly and Salley making up and agreeing to stop sh*t talking. But plot twist, this gossip came from Venita!

A hurt Molly says she paid for it herself back in 2019. Molly is open about the work she’s had done, but says, “The one thing I didn’t really want to tell the entire world is that I got my labia cut off.” Rodrigo calls Venita a “shady b*tch.” Especially for telling Salley, who has a big mouth. Venita admits she messed up. But she turns it back on Salley, mentioning Rodrigo was right to warn her to be wary.

Later on, Venita awkwardly tells Salley to “be nice.” Including to Molly. Then Molly confronts her for “being sh*tty.” Salley argues that Molly’s “been f*cking sh*tty.” Molly fires back, “Well you are sh*tty, always, you f*cking assh*le.” Molly calls Salley “malicious” and hilariously adds, “Sorry I have a beautiful vagina, are you jealous? Go get yours done!” Salley responds, “I’m sure it’s great.” Madison jokes that she’s never even thought about vagina surgery … but might after giving birth.

When Salley apologizes, Molly warns that Venita is wary of her. Salley tries to confront Venita, but her bestie says she knows she won’t be heard. She brings up Craig, and a frustrated Salley says in a confessional that her friendship with Craig has nothing to do with Venita. “Let me live!” she adds. She also cries hypocrisy when Venita give Craig a polite kiss on the cheek goodbye.

Craig admits he’s “struggling”

Meanwhile, Craig confides in Madison, who is concerned about his drinking. She wants him to stay on the “high horse” he was on last year. Craig admits he slipped up, and immediately regretted his actions at Whitner’s. He even reached out to a former therapist to book a session (a much better idea than using ChatGPT). In a confessional, he admits he slid back into the fun guy at the bar persona because it’s how he met Naomi and Paige. He knows he doesn’t have to do that to meet someone, but also has trouble believing that deep down. But he also knows that’s the worst version of himself. Madison gives him a reassuring hug and tells him he’s okay.

What happens in the hot tub …

As the other guests leave the party, Craig, Kory, Salley, and Charley move into that infamous hot tub. Charley runs to get a drink, and the others order her around. Craig jokes that she’s “submissive” and Salley calls her “easily manipulative.” Gross, you guys.

Because this season might as well be called “Southern Charm: Craig’s Hot Tub,” Craig and Salley reminisce about all the nights they’ve spent in there. Craig mentions that his favorite time was when they went to brunch the next day. Kory realizes that means Salley spent the night, and she gives a knowing glance. “What happens in the hot tub stays in the hot tub,” says Craig. My question is … was Charley there too? And so the love triangle continues for another week!

TELL US – WHAT DID YOU THINK OF SOUTHERN CHARM SEASON 11 EPISODE 5? ARE YOU TEAM MOLLY OR SALLEY? ARE YOU ALSO TIRED OF HEARING ABOUT CRAIG’S HOT TUB?

The post Southern Charm Season 11 Episode 5 Recap: Molly Takes Salley To Task appeared first on Reality Tea.

Welcome back to the Southern Charm Season 11 recaps! Last week, Craig flirted with both Salley and Charley. Austen had FOMO watching his single friends, which enraged Craig. Molly complained about Salley behind her back. Things came to a head at Whitner’s birthday party when Craig snapped after Austen’s digs. Craig accused Austen of living a lie in his relationship, and stormed off. We left off on to be continued. What happened this week on Southern Charm Season 11 Episode 4, “A Movable Beast”?

What happened on Southern Charm Season 11 Episode 4?

This week picks up right where last episode left off. Craig and Austen continue fighting, and Craig pulls in Shep, who heard a rumor about Austen’s relationship. After the party, Craig hangs out with Charley and Salley in his hot tub. Austen is left wondering if Craig and Shep are really his friends. Here’s what else happened on Southern Charm Season 11 Episode 4, “A Movable Beast.”

The chaos continues at Whitner’s party

We pick up immediately where we left off, as everyone recovers from Craig’s outburst. In the kitchen, Craig continues ranting that Austen is acting this way because he’s unhappy in his relationship. Whitner asks for no more fighting at his birthday, because it makes him uncomfortable. Oof, good luck with this friend group, Whit.

Venita declares herself Team Austen and tells him about Craig’s trash talking in the kitchen. She’s tired of Craig getting away with everything in this group.

As they sit down to eat, Craig whispers to Charley, “Maybe I can cook for you.” He also asks her to bring some paintings by his house so he can choose one. Shep jokes that Salley, Craig, and Charley are the new “throuple.”

Craig and Austen try to keep the peace at dinner, but they keep whispering (Austen to Madison, Craig to Salley) about each other. Salley encourages Craig to apologize. When Charley says that Shep’s toy gun is heavier than she expected, Austen starts to make a “that’s what she said” joke. But then snarkily says he can’t because Craig will take it as a sign he’s unhappy. Craig officially restarts the fight by shouting, “Austen, keep running your mouth and Shep’s going to say something that’s going to ruin your life.”

Shep feigns innocence. Before storming off to the kitchen again, Craig says that Austen threw the first punch with his snarky comments. An exhausted Madison tells Austen to go talk to him.

What does Shep know about Austen?

Shep claims that in New York, two twenty-something girls alleged their friend was talking to Austen. There’s no hard proof, and Shep calls it “totally unsubstantiated.” He asked Craig if he should say anything to Austen, and Craig said no. “Wrong person to ask,” says Madison.

In the kitchen, Craig accuses Austen of taking his problems out on him. Austen is confused why Craig was so triggered, asking, “I said you had a late night with two hot girls and you’re gonna cry about it?” Craig brings up Austen saying he was scared of him at the Season 10 reunion. Austen points to Craig’s current unpredictable behavior as the reason he’s scared sometimes. Craig says sorry, but that Austen triggered him. Austen dismisses it as a fake apology.

Eventually, Shep tells Austen what happened. Austen denies cheating on Audrey. He’s upset that Craig and Shep can “callously spread such bullsh*t” when they’re supposed to be his friends. Austen says that he talks to girls at the bar, and Audrey talks to guys, and it’s no big deal. “So the only way I can have peace is if I’m single chasing p*ssy like you two?” Austen asks Shep. He wonders out loud why he hangs out with them and tells them anything, then storms out.

Rodrigo and Madison aren’t happy either. Rod accuses Craig of pushing Shep under the bus. Madison being pregnant (and sober) gave her a new perspective on Craig’s outbursts. Rodrigo also laughs in disbelief when Craig says, “I won’t be gaslit into believing I did anything wrong.” However, Salley tells Craig that he is “so great.”

Molly and Salley show there’s room for one more fight

At the table, Salley tells everyone she advised Craig to apologize. Molly is surprised, saying it looked like they were just flirting. Salley decides now is the time to confront Molly about her trash talk.

Molly says Salley started it by coming for her about the baby shower. Salley says that was a fact, but argues she never called dibs on any guy. Venita disagrees by mocking Salley’s obsession with Craig. Rodrigo, who overheard Salley’s conversation with Charley about Craig, also interjects to take Molly’s side.

“You might have been drunk, like you are a lot, and you probably forgot,” Molly fires back. In a confessional, Molly says Salley places her self-worth on approval from men, which causes drama. But Salley argues she’s just living her best life in the hot tub.

In fact, after the party, Salley tells her mom she and Charley went back to Craig’s hot tub until 4 am. Salley now has a pile of Craig’s clothes in her closet, since she puts them on to go in. Her mom jokes if a menage a trois happened, but Salley says Craig hasn’t made a move yet. She’s used to getting the guys she wants, so she’s wondering what’s taking so long.

Well … Happy Birthday to Whit?

Whitner doesn’t let the wreckage of the party (both the drama and the literal mess in his backyard) stop him from following his daily routine. He wakes up at 4:35 am, takes his dog out, works out from 5 to 7 am, meditates, showers, and heads to work (with said dog) at 8 am. “I recognize I’m a lot,” he admits. He also recognizes he’s a huge momma’s boy. He doesn’t tell his mom the drama of the party, but she rags on him for still being single. At 36, Whitner doesn’t feel a rush to settle down- why would he, in this friend group?

At least one Southern Charm star found domestic bliss

Madison continues to be the only settled one. This week, she spends time with Hudson as they look forward to move into their new house. Madison can’t believe she’ll have a preteen and a baby at the same time. But Hudson is more excited than jealous of his new sibling, possibly because it’s a girl and not another boy. Though he jokes that the previous ultrasound pictures made his sister look like the Green Goblin. Meanwhile, Madison’s husband Brett leaves a work trip early to come home and be with her, and he gets three months of paternity leave.

Charley advises Craig on more than just art

Craig once again flirts up a storm with Charley, this time when she brings paintings to his house. Charley wants him to be straightforward and ask her out. As Craig looks at the paintings, he remarks, “I hate decisions.” Does that also apply to his love triangle?

Craig reveals Austen hasn’t talked to him or Shep since the party. Charley tells Craig he was out of line. In a confessional, she remarks how crazy it is that men ten years her senior were fighting about a hot tub. Craig is confused why his social life bothers Austen. He brings up that last year, Austen was mad at him for not being social enough.

Charley advises Craig not to react so much when people say things he doesn’t like. Craig claims he doesn’t (um, let’s roll the clips) but says he’s just “a highly passionate person.”

Is Austen done with Shep?

Shep and Molly, who are better as friends, hang out a dog park. After the party, Shep feels like Craig used him as a pawn in his conflict with Austen. He admits he messed up by telling Craig the rumor. But he also believes that Austen would “run back into Craig’s arms” before his. Molly says they need therapy. But also shares that she did bad things in her past, and is grateful people allowed her to grow, apologize, and make up for it. Shep reveals that Austen is avoiding his phone calls. He gets Molly to call Austen, but he still doesn’t answer.

Should Austen end his friendships with Shep and Craig?

Austen welcomes his cats home. Their names are Piper and Martini, which gets Austen to do his best impression of Parker Posey on The White Lotus (“Piper, nooo!”). Austen is so burnt by the party, he’s making a rare trip to Audrey’s with the cats. He told Audrey about Shep’s rumor, and she didn’t think anything of it.

Austen talks about the party with Madison and Rodrigo, his real besties. Madison admits she thought Craig changed. But she sees him backslide into the old Craig now that he’s drinking again. She also points out that Craig and Shep have a pattern of doing this when Austen’s in a relationship. After all, they broke her and Austen up! Rodrigo asks why Austen gives them so much grace. Austen admits he’s starting to think they’re not his real friends. And that’s where we leave off.

Southern Charm airs Wednesdays at 9/8c on Bravo. It streams on Peacock.

The post Southern Charm Season 11 Episode 4 Recap: Will Austen’s Real Friends Please Stand Up? appeared first on Reality Tea.

Southern Charm Season 11 is getting good! Last week, Salley held a singles party and had here eye on Craig. However, he also showed interest in new cast member Charley. But was Craig really the one Salley wants? Because she also told people she would hook up with Austen “the day after” he breaks up with Audrey. This sparked Audrey to bring up the problems in her and Austen’s relationship. So, what happened this week in Southern Charm Season 11 Episode 3: “A Novel Approach?”

What happened on Southern Charm Season 11 Episode 3?

This week, Austen opens up to Madison about his relationship issues. He decides to commit … to getting cats. Austen’s FOMO watching his single friends enrages Craig, and things come to blows at Whitner’s birthday party. Meanwhile, we get to know Charley a bit more, and Craig flirts with both her and Salley. But on a sadder note, Miss Patricia prepares to lay her beloved dog Chauncey to rest. Here’s everything that went down on Southern Charm Season 11 Episode 3, “A Novel Approach.”

The Southern Charm girls aren’t happy with Salley

The episode starts with Salley cleaning up after the wild singles party. But it’s not just a physical mess she has to deal with. Her actions at the party also annoyed her girlfriends. When Charley talks to her mom, she mentions how Salley acted over Craig. Charley didn’t see flirting with Craig as “going for him” and promised Salley she’d tell her if she would. Later on, Craig visits her at the art gallery where she works, and the two get very flirty.

When Venita goes over to Salley’s, she reveals that Molly isn’t happy with her either. At lunch with Venita, Molly complained that Salley told Madison about her getting drunk and crying at the baby shower. Molly also said that Salley can’t call dibs on every guy. And she was bothered by Salley’s comments about Austen, considering he’s still with Audrey. Salley is shocked to hear this, because Molly’s still acting like her best friend.

Venita also has issues with Salley. She tells her BFF that she feels Salley picks Craig over her. Salley promises that will never happen.

Austen isn’t sure Audrey’s The One

Austen meets with Madison to discuss his relationship over crab legs. Madison can’t help but make a joke about him having crabs.

She doesn’t regret telling Audrey about Salley’s crush on Austen. Because it seemed to inspire Audrey and Austen to get real about their relationship problems. Audrey, for instance, is annoyed that she always goes to Charleston instead of him coming to Charlotte.

Austen tells Madison that when Audrey’s in town, things are “easy.” But when she leaves, he wonders, “Is this like … forever?” From his tone of voice, he wouldn’t be bothered if it was. Austen thinks he’s supposed to feel differently about the person he wants to spend forever with, and Madison agrees.

In a confessional, Austen admits that, at almost 38, he’s not sure he will settle down and get married. After all, how do you choose one person? How can you be so sure they’re the one?

After the conversation with Madison, Austen decides to take a big step … of becoming a cat dad. He knows commitment and him don’t go hand in hand, but he wants to commit to raising two kittens. Craig says this further spells out the end of his relationship with Audrey. After all, Craig’s last three girlfriends all got new cats just before breaking up with him! But Craig knows all about being a cat dad to Gizmo, so he offers to help Austen.

Shep and Madison are moving on up

This week, both Shep and Madison reveal they’re moving into big new houses. In Shep’s case, he bought the house partially because his siblings are settling down with their families, so he wanted to show his parents something. He brings Rodrigo on as his decorator, and they look through Shep’s parents storage unit for furniture and decor. Rodrigo is obsessed with all the antique and designer items. He also decides they should take a painting of a young Shep playing golf.

Along the way, Shep admits that he might be too old for the 27-year-old Charley, though he also argues he’s maturing very slowly. That doesn’t make you younger, Shep! Rodrigo jokes that Shep’s parents probably hoped he’d have a wife and kids by the time he moved into a big house, instead of bringing along a gay designer friend.

Madison, the only member of the group who has actually settled down, is moving into a big new house. When she was younger, she thought the only way she’d be able to live in a house like that would be to marry a rich old man. The price tag is hefty, but Madison is sure it’s worth it, though she jokes with Brett about becoming a “kitchen beautician” and selling their sex tapes to afford it. Especially since she wants six kids to fill the bedrooms. But on a serious note, Brett mentions how proud Madison’s dad would be, making her tear up.

Austen has FOMO watching Craig be single

After Austen and Craig go shopping for the kittens, they catch up over coffee. Both are trying to figure out their costumes for Whitner’s birthday party, where everyone has to dress as a literary figure. Craig asks ChatGPT, which suggests Dorian Gray (“is that the guy from 50 Shades of Grey?” he asks). Austen jokes that Craig has PTSD from all those costume parties on Summer House.

Craig admits he’s enjoying being able to kiss whoever he wants, guilt free. He mentions Salley staying in his hot tub and flirting with Charley. But when Austen asks which one he would kiss, Craig doesn’t answer. That’s when Austen admits, as Shep and Rodrigo already guessed, that he has FOMO. Craig is shocked and enraged by this. After all, he didn’t want to be single! He hates it! He calls Austen’s “half in, half out” attitude “bullshit.”

Whitner’s birthday party is one for the books

Whitner has Venita come over to help decorate for his birthday party. He reveals that elaborate costume parties are a family tradition- and make great family photos. Venita actually knows his mom, who “would be an anarchist if she could.”

While Venita puts out some china plates, Whitner reveals he last used them for an anniversary with his ex. Apparently, she walked out shortly after they got engaged, and wouldn’t listen to Whitner’s suggestions to fix their relationship.

At the party, Whitner dresses as Ernest Hemingway, Venita as Medusa, and Molly as Gandalf. Shep dresses as a Lonesome Dove character with surprising similarities to himself. Salley is Kissing Kate Barlow from Holes, which Shep never heard of (or did he just want Salley to say “holes” a bunch of times?). Madison wins best dressed by going as Shep. She really commits to the costume by giving Whitner a shark tooth necklace as a gift.

As they get ready for the party, Austen jokes that he won’t get the girls because he’s dressing as Hermione. Craig, who goes as Rufio from Hook, is aghast, reminding Austen in a confessional that he won’t be getting the girls because he has a GIRLFRIEND!

Craig and Austen have an explosive fight

There’s tension between the girls at the party. Craig and Salley flirt, with him asking “Can I play with your gun?” and her responding, “I might use it on you later.” Despite Venita being right there when this exchange happened, Salley gushingly recounts it to her five seconds later. Venita is quite annoyed by her bestie swooning over the man she’s feuding with.

There’s also noticeable tension when Salley says hi to Molly. Salley says that she can’t fake being nice. But, as per usual, the girls have nothing on the guys when it comes to catty behavior.

Once Charley shows up (as Daisy Buchanan) Austen makes snide comments about Craig’s flirting. When Craig suggests shots, Austen makes a comment about his drinking. Rodrigo clocks that Austen is making these digs because he has FOMO. After Austen makes a joke about Salley being in Craig’s hot tub, Craig fires back.

He accuses Austen of being jealous that he’s single. Austen denies saying that, but it was sort of implied. Craig rants that he’s having fun, late nights at his house (Salley interjects a “whoo!”) and being himself, and that Austen is bitter, dishonest, and “living a lie” with his relationship. They each accuse the other one of being unhappy. Craig storms off, as Austen calls him a “dick” and Craig says he’s a “f*cking loser.” And we end on a to be continued …

Southern Charm airs Wednesdays at 9/8c on Bravo. The show streams on Hayu in Canada, the UK and Ireland.

TELL US – WHAT DID YOU THINK OF SOUTHERN CHARM SEASON 11 EPISODE 3? WHOSE SIDE ARE YOU ON, AUSTEN’S OR CRAIG’S?

The post Southern Charm Season 11 Episode 3 Recap: Austen and Craig’s Catfight appeared first on Reality Tea.

Things are heating up on Southern Charm Season 11! In last week’s season premiere, Craig tried to move on after his breakup with Paige. Salley caught his eye at Madison’s baby shower, and the attraction is mutual. However, Salley’s best friend Venita is feuding with Craig, and she walked out of the shower instead of hanging with him and Salley at the afterparty. Meanwhile, Molly flirted with Craig’s friend Kory and wound up missing her band concert. And while Craig and Austen were getting along okay, a flash forward proved they’ll be back at it in no time. So, what happened this week?

What happened on Southern Charm Season 11 Episode 2?

This week, Salley throws a singles party. She declares she wants to make out with Craig, despite his ongoing feud Venita. However, Salley might really have eyes for someone else. Meanwhile, we meet new Southern Charm Season 11 cast members Whitner and Charley. Charley has a history with Craig, and the two hit it off, much to Salley’s chagrin. We’re getting some classic Southern Charm love triangles! Here’s what else went down on Southern Charm Season 11 Episode 2, “Making Waves.”

Salley throws a singles’ party

The episode starts with Salley calling Venita, seemingly unaware of just how hurt she was by the flirting with Craig. In a confessional, Venita says that as much as she loves Salley, her bestie is too male-centered. Salley doesn’t know how to navigate the feud between Venita and Craig. Especially after she stayed at Craig’s house until about 4 am post-baby shower. So, she changes the subject to her singles’ party. Salley asks Venita to help with the decor.

While Venita shops with Rodrigo for the party, she says she believes Salley would choose her over Craig. But Rodrigo isn’t as sure. Later in the episode, he’s proven right when Salley declares she wants to make out with Craig at her singles party.

Meanwhile, as Craig reflects on his singledom, he realizes he’s never been able to control his drinking when he’s not in a relationship. I’m sure many Southern Charm viewers would argue he had trouble controlling that when he was in relationships as well. Without Paige, he’s distracting himself with work and leaning on his assistant Jack for emotional support.

Molly spills Salley’s secret crush

Molly was able to keep her place in the band after all, but seems to have lost interest in Kory. She can’t date someone who doesn’t know what a euphonium is! This week, she heads over to Madison’s to help her with thank you notes for the baby shower. While there, they note that Salley got a way too small size Hill House dress for Madison. Molly jokes that the baby-sized dress has just as good a chance of fitting over Madison’s boobs.

This leads Molly to reveal Salley’s feelings for … Austen! The day of the baby shower, Salley told Molly, Rodrigo, and Tyler that while she loves Audrey, her personality connects with Austen. She said, “Would I hook up with him? Like, the day after they break up, let’s go.”

Meet Southern Charm newbie Whitner

Speaking of Austen, he absolutely flops at surfing with Shep. Shep’s friend Whitner joins them at the beach. Whitner and Shep are from a similar background, though he doesn’t have a trust fund and actually has to work. He’s a lawyer, and was two years behind Craig in law school. Unlike Craig, he took and passed the bar. Craig didn’t spend much time with Whitner in school, but he does know his sister … intimately. His sister even showed up as Craig’s date on this show years ago.

As far as his present day love life, the guys talk about Craig’s texts with Salley. When Craig says Salley could’ve stayed over, she responded that he should’ve asked her to. The guys are in disbelief that Craig messed up his shot. Shep remembers when Craig was too scared to make a move on Catherine … which sent Catherine right into his arms.

Southern Charm newcomer Charley makes waves at Salley’s Single Soiree

The whole cast meets up at Salley’s Single Soiree, including those in relationships. This is where we meet Salley’s friend Charley, the other Southern Charm Season 11 newcomer. Shep’s already been in her DMs. But Charley isn’t interested, joking that it’s like texting your dad. Ouch! At least he doesn’t get compared to a grandpa like Whitney?

Charley has more chemistry with Craig. At first, he thinks she’s Austen’s ex Olivia Flowers. But it turns out, Craig judged Miss South Carolina when Charley was a contestant. And while she got third, he picked her to win. Salley is dismayed by their chatting, and accuses Charley of breaking girl code and flirting. Charley says it isn’t like that, but Salley is unconvinced. She even excludes Charley from a game of spikeball, picking Molly and Korey to play her and Craig. The Season 11 love triangles are taking shape!

Speaking of, Madison watches as Austen spends more time throwing the football with Salley than talking to his girlfriend Audrey. Madison asks Rodrigo if Audrey knows about Salley’s crush. Rodrigo thinks Salley is more into Craig. But Madison theorizes that’s only because Craig’s available and Austen isn’t.

The cracks are showing in Austen and Audrey’s relationship

We already know that things don’t work out between Austen and his girlfriend Audrey. And in this episode, we start to see why. When a producer asks, Austen insists they’ve never even talked about living together. He loves long distance. But as he’s on the phone with Audrey while she’s in traffic, it’s clear she doesn’t feel the same.

They attend the singles party despite their relationship. Austen tells her she’s the hottest girl there. When Audrey talks with Madison, Austen’s ex can’t help but warn her about Salley’s crush. Madison also isn’t convinced Audrey is the one for Austen. She thinks he’s only with Audrey to better himself. But he really wants someone who will “light a fire” under him.

Audrey confronts Austen about Salley’s crush. Austen insists Salley wants Craig, but says he does like her and enjoys hanging out with her as a friend. Audrey hopes things don’t reach a breaking point.

That’s when she asks if their long distance relationship is really working. Austen says he likes having his own space and his own stuff, but when she visits, it’s like they’ve been together ten years. Is that a compliment? Audrey wishes he would come to see her in Charlotte more, but he argues it’s less convenient. Audrey doesn’t want them to live separate lives and wonder why they’re even together. Is Austen checked out of this relationship? That seems to be what Craig and Madison imply in the preview for next week. We’ll have to watch and find out!

Southern Charm airs Wednesdays at 9/8c on Bravo. It can be streamed on Peacock.

The post Southern Charm Season 11 Episode 2 Recap: Salley Stirs Things Up appeared first on Reality Tea.

Ba-ba-doo, ba-ba-de-ee, Southern Charm Season 11 is almost here! Cue the drama, debutants, and witty deliveries of mostly solid one-liners alongside a few random literary references, just as soon as this new season debuts on Bravo. However, before Season 11 airs, there are many details that we must first address.

For starters, this cast has both gained and lost several main characters since Season 10 wrapped. Likewise, the trailer for Season 11 recently dropped, giving us a few insights into the storylines that lie ahead. So, how and when can we watch this chaos unfold? And what can we expect out of this new season of Southern Charm? Here’s everything we know.

Southern Charm Season 11 cast

The Charmers for Season 11 include many longstanding cast members. For starters, a newly single Craig Conover is back and ready to take on the dating scene in Charleston. But he will soon find himself in a dramatic love triangle with two of his costars.

The first star wooed by Craig is Salley Carson, whom we met in Season 10. But newbie Charley Manley also wants to fluff Craig’s pillows, which will soon create drama in Season 11.

Austen Kroll and his ex, Madison LeCroy, are also returning. But whether ot not their outfits will match this season, we cannot yet say.

Meanwhile, Shep Rose is coming back again, as expected. But this season, he’s bringing along a newbie via his longstanding friend, Whitner Slagsvol.

Now that Shep is single, all eyes might be on his friendship with another returnee, Molly O’Connell. Or not. Either way, Molly is coming back, and we could not be any happier about this decision.

Rounding out the cast of Southern Charm Season 11 are Rodrigo Reyes and Venita Aspen, both of whom have starred on this series for several seasons.

Oh. Patricia Altschul and her son, Whitney Sudler-Smith, are also returning for their few and far between side barbs on this series. Taylor Ann Green, Leva Bonaparte, and Jarrett “JT” Thomas, however, did not film for Season 11.

Has the Southern Charm Season 11 trailer been released?

The trailer for Southern Charm Season 11 recently dropped, and WHEW, it is messy. Apart from Craig and his already-mentioned love triangle, the drama this season feels borderline overwhelming. For starters, the fallout from Craig’s era of no regrets will create many ripples among this cast.

Once good friends, Salley and Charley will spar over their shared conquest. However, Charley is “the first date” Craig has “ever been on, where I haven’t hooked up with the person before,” Craig jokes, shocking Charley enough to make her pause, but likely not run away from this crush.

On the flip side of this coin, Venita is still hightailing it away from Craig. And she hopes that Salley might follow her lead. But in the trailer, we see Salley telling her friend, “I don’t want to stop hanging out with Craig.”

But Austen might. As this drop teases, Craig is using his unreliable narrator voice this season. When he tells Shep that Austen allegedly cheated on his girlfriend, Austen shouts, “You are a lost soul. You want to be anybody but yourself, and it’s obvious.”

In the meantime, Madison and her baby bump will appear centerstage, until she pops and introduces her precious new addition to the cameras. As for Shep and Rodrigo, the tensions between Craig and Austen are going to drive them both mad during Season 11.

What is the Southern Charm Season 11 release date?

Based on all of the above storylines, consider this writer ready for Southern Charm Season 11. But when does this new season debut? And what time can viewers expect to catch these Charmers in all of their lies while draped in their favorite Lilly Pulitzer hues?

The new season of this long-running reality television series releases on Wednesday, November 19, at 9 p.m. ET/PT. As for how many Wednesdays Season 11 takes hold of, this answer remains unknown. That said, in recent seasons, the number 17 has emerged as the norm. If this number rings true for Season 11, viewers can expect to stay entertained by these Charmers until March.

Nonetheless, however long or short this season might feel for the viewers, no one likely feels this more than Madison. This sarcastic Southerner took “no days off” from filming during her pregnancy. “I’m filming a reality show during the birth of my child, so there were no days off for me,” she stressed after their cameras went down.

Where to watch Southern Charm Season 11

Come November 9, where can viewers tune in to watch all things Southern Charm Season 11? This question is as easy to answer as the birds and the bees and the 1-2-3’s of this series. Come November, Southern Charm airs first on Bravo.

The post Southern Charm Season 11: Cast, Trailer, Premiere Date, Where To Watch appeared first on Reality Tea.

Season 10 of Southern Charm served up plenty of drama. However, it might want to hold Season 11’s beer. The upcoming season features two new cast members, plenty of squabbling, and a love triangle.

Of course, Season 11 will feature a newly single Craig Conover, who could also be the season’s villain. He has cut ties with Summer House alum Paige DeSorbo, and he looks like he is back in party mode. And more than one lady on the series is interested in what the sewing king has to offer. The Season 11 trailer just dropped, and it is delicious!

Check out the Season 11 Southern Charm trailer

The newbies this season are former beauty queen and model, Charley Manley, and Whitner Slagsvol, who is friends with Shep Rose. In the trailer, Craig announced, “I’m having fun, like being able to kiss someone if I wanted guilt-free.” And both Charley and her friend, Salley Carson, are interested in kissing Craig.

Unfortunately, this love triangle causes a major problem in their friendship. When Craig told Salley she was “getting overwhelmed,” she responded, “I am overwhelmed by all of you f*cking man children.” Amen!

Meanwhile, Craig told Shep, “Two girls just randomly said that their roommate hooked up with Austen [Kroll]. “It was a salacious rumor,” Shep responded. Of course, Austen is dating Audrey Pratt. Plus, Austen and Craig are once again feuding, with Austen yelling at Craig, “You are a lost soul. You want to be anybody but yourself!” Yikes!

In addition, Venita Aspen is still angry with Craig, and she isn’t hiding her disdain. In a sweet moment, we also saw a pregnant Madison LeCroy getting an ultrasound and seeing her baby’s face. Although she was pregnant the whole season, the new mom continued filming after having her daughter.

Southern Charm Season 11 premieres on Wednesday, November 19, at 9 p.m. ET/PT on Bravo.
