Salley Carson’s wildest dreams came true on the latest episode of Southern Charm. It seems she manifested that Austen Kroll and Audrey Pratt break up since the start of the season. And it finally happened during the cast trip to Whitner Slagsvol’s house.

Madison LeCroy spilled the beans to Salley poolside and she was “giddy.” Her reaction was, “it’s game on.” Other cast mates with less of a vested interest were a bit more sympathetic, as Austen seemed to be sad about it. Salley had to manage her feelings for the rest of the trip.

Audrey Pratt and Austen Kroll are no longer dating

Now, the cast is reacting in the Southern Charm After Show. Above all, Austen reflected on the matter. His break up from Audrey was off camera, so it’s to viewers benefit to get his thoughts.

“Prior to this trip, I broached the subject with Audrey. That I’ve been having some thoughts,” the Southern Charm veteran said during the After Show.

Apparently, the couple “never had a convo” like that during the course of their relationship. Austen continued, “So I kind of asked her, what is it that you want? She said, ‘I deserve someone who knows what they want. To like move in with them after a year and a half of dating.'” To Austen, that answer was “so totally fair.”

Despite it being a “huge decision,” perhaps Audrey gave him the out that he needed. Austen reflected on whether there would have been resentment had she moved to Charleston and it had not worked out.

“I think she did lose herself a little bit while dating me,” Austen admitted.

Meanwhile, Salley brought a different vibe to After Show. She gushed that all she remembered from the car ride to Whitner’s “is Austen being single.”

Molly O’Connell added, “You were like a dog in heat.”

She protested, “I feel bad when anybody break ups. But at the same time in this moment, I was being selfish and thingk about myself.”

Molly told her friend that “you don’t have to think about that.” She continued, “I love Audrey, she’s great. But you like Austen. They’re done now. I could see it all spiraling in your brain.”

Madison recalled telling Salley to “tone it down a little” during the cast trip as she seemingly couldn’t contain her excitement. It’s saying what viewers were thinking. Somehow, at the same time, Salley inserted herself into Charley Manley and Craig Conover’s budding romance.

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.”

Amanda Batula is opening up about her split from Kyle Cooke after four years of marriage. The Summer House star appeared on Watch What Happens Live after the premiere of Season 10. As the couple are now no more, viewing the footage is now a case study into their prior relationship.

Amanda shares her thoughts on the current state of matters. She also reacted to the fan base celebrating her separation, and shared who she thinks will be first to date again.

Amanda Batula and Ciara Miller joined Andy Cohen on Watch What Happens Live

Amanda confirmed to host Andy Cohen that she and Kyle have “been living seperately” “since October or November.” Specifically, “just before” BravoCon 2025.

She clarified that there was no “one final straw” that drove their “decision to separate.” There was also no prenup, which was already known. However, Amanda reveals how much she “regrets” it now. At stake is Kyle’s company Loverboy, where Amanda worked as Creative Director.

“I have to think that you feel that you deserve a part of Loverboy,” Andy said.

“Listen, that’s his baby. That’s his bread and butter. That man worked harder on that business than he did relationship. So I’m okay … not,” the Bravolebrity replied.

Andy reiterated, “you worked hard on that business too.”

Presumably divorce is inevitable, given the wording. As for what pushed Amanda to make the decision, she did admit “how hard it was to have the whole internet rooting for your divorce.”

“I mean, to an extent, when you hear something so many times, you start to believe it or think more about it. But I’m not mad about it. I think its something I needed to hear,” Amanda explained.

When Andy asked how the “relationship is now,” she replied, “Great.” Amanda continued, “We just had our premiere party. He gave me a very sentimental shout-out. He had a lot of people in tears. There’s a lot of love still there.”

Amanda is clearly ready to move on. Of the two, thinks she might be “the first to start dating” again. She gushed, “would that be crazy?”

Andy asked, “Is there a universe in which you two get back together?”

“I said it doesn’t matter what happens. It’s up to us. it could happen. It could not. Right now, probably not,” Amanda concluded.

Gina Kirschenheiter is still gushing over her recent engagement to Travis Mullen. The Real Housewives of Orange County star has been dating her now-fiance since August 2019. And Travis proposed on New Year’s Eve to end 2025. All the more darling, the couple’s children were involved in the proposal.

Travis did well in planning process, and including the kids in it. His daughter, Presley, filmed her father getting down on one knee. The engagement ring itself has six smaller, round diamonds to encircle it. They are meant to symbolize both parents’ three children from prior marriages. It all seems very heartfelt, and Gina certainly praised her partner for the proposal itself. But how does she really feel about the ring?

How Gina Kirschenheiter “really” feels about her engagement ring

After getting over the “complete shock” of the proposal, the RHOC star is reacting to the rock she got.  For reference, it’s a 6-Carat, oval-cut diamond. 18K yellow gold nestles the gem.

“I will enjoy wearing this every day of my life, so I think he did a great job,” Gina gushed to Bravo’s The Daily Dish on January 28.

Seeing Travis get down on one knee was a shock for Gina because they had “zero conversations about engagement rings.”

“So that’s also why I didn’t see this coming, ’cause I’m like, ‘We weren’t even talking about this.’ And he was really nervous about that because [of that reason]. I wasn’t the girl who grew up dreaming about my wedding or knew exactly what I wanted,” she continued.

Gina thinks the ring is “so stunning, so perfect.” Best of all for the RHOC veteran is that she “didn’t have to make that decision.”

“I don’t really love having to make those decisions,” she explained. “So, it just really works out for me, and I just think it’s really simple and it’s really beautiful, and I just think it goes with everything.”

“The band has six little stones in it for the kids and the kids were so excited to tell me that like, they were in the ring. And it’s just so special and wonderful that I felt like Travis and I got engaged, but I feel like the whole family got engaged,” Gina shared.

Paige DeSorbo is taking her television career to new heights in 2026. The former Summer House star was a Bravo darling for nine seasons before quitting the gig. She found major success as a co-host on the Giggly Squad podcast, even going on tour with her co-star, Hannah Berner. Paige also launched a sleepwear line called Daphne.

But this latest professional win may be the most exciting of all, Paige is starring in a Super Bowl ad.

Paige DeSorbo appears in Kinder Bueno’s Super Bowl spot

Paige told People about working with actor William Fichtner. The commercial for Kinder Bueno has the duo in space navigating “no bueno” crises and “yes bueno” moments.

Paige says she grew up with the Ferrero confectionary company chocolates.

“When I moved out of my childhood home 11 years ago, whenever I go home, she pretends that you’re coming and staying at a hotel,” Paige shared. “So she always puts chocolate next to the bed and it’s always been Kinder Bueno. And so it just felt very fate and I was like, ‘My mom’s going to be so excited.’”

Creating the commercial was “so fun.” And William’s prior experience in action films really came in handy. Paige praised her costar.

“He’s a real actor. I felt like, ‘Hi, nice to meet you. I’m not as professional of an actress as you are,’ but he was so nice and it was such an honor to meet him,” she shared.

Paige continued, “Obviously we filmed a commercial, but the whole day I was just like, ‘And how do they film movies?’ This is crazy. It’s so much work that goes into it and so many people and their expertise. So it was just very fascinating to see all of the moving parts all day.”

“If someone said to me a couple years ago, ‘All your ex boyfriends will be sitting down and watching one TV show and then you’ll pop up,’ I’d say that’s a dream come true. So I’m really excited to harness all of that energy,” she said.

“I’m excited to watch the commercial. Obviously, it’s a big game,” the podcaster said. “I’m not rooting for one particular team. I’m really rooting for the commercials.”

Karen Huger just returned to The Real Housewives of Potomac. She filmed an interview with Bravo executive producer Andy Cohen at her home. She had just been released from prison a week prior. And her responses were honest, raw, and reflective.

The interview was received with positive response. Both from her cast mates, and from Andy himself. And the Watch What Happens Live host shared his thoughts on the sit-down during a recent episode of his radio show.

Andy Cohen had a one-on-one with RHOP’s Karen Huger

While hosting SiriusXM’s Andy Cohen Live, Andy explained that to him, “the opinions that almost matter the most,” about Karen’s interview are “the other Potomac housewives.” Gizelle Bryant, for one, previously called bullshit on her co-star’s lack of accountability before her time in jail. Now, she’s praising her frenemy.

Andy recalled Karen’s costars saying, “‘Wow, we didn’t expect Karen to show this much vulnerability and show this much ownership.'”

“For me, and I think for them, hearing Karen talk about the denial that she was in, because they all kept saying, ‘Karen, you are in denial. Karen, you’re in denial.’ Look, she said last night, ‘I was in denial. I had a problem,’ and she said that she had multiple problems,” he continued.

In the interview, which aired on this week’s episode of RHOP, Karen admitted to “mixing prescription medication with alcohol.” Andy spoke to his theory of why she “wasn’t ready to say that she was an alcoholic.” Karen swerved around that word. She was seemingly very humble throughout, but it was important for her to label the situation specifically and correctly.

“It seemed to me that she was masking her pain with prescription medication and antidepressants for years and part of the issue was she was then, and she said she was so unhappy in her own life that she was trying to run away and the way that she was running away was by then mixing alcohol with the prescription medication. That, to me, was a lot to admit,” he concluded.

What would Summer House be without cast conflict? There are varying degrees of escalation of course. And the show, about to premiere its tenth season, has seemingly been overdue a flat-out brawl. As it turns out, the cast revealed that fight between Carl Radke and Kyle Cooke left West Wilson as collateral damage.

Carl and Kyle have been solid friends since before Summer House. They’ve had each other’s backs over the years, but also squabble. The reason for their fight was not disclosed, but they did share that West was “bloodied” in the aftermath.

Carl Radke “hadn’t flipped out like that in quite a while” on Summer House

Bravo’s show cast celebrated a decade onscreen at 92NY in the Big Apple last week. Carl and Kyle recalled their fight, which was filmed in the summer of 2025, as an event that brought them “closer.”

“I think it was probably the biggest fight we’ve ever had as friends,” Carl shared. “That was the last dinner of the summer, which I think you’ll see how that kind of led up to that. But I think a lot of men, especially Kyle and I, we can go at it — but it actually brings us closer together.”

He added, “I mean, me and Kyle tried to kill [former costar] Luke [Gulbranson], and we’re best friends. We’ve gotten into it, but you’ll see how it unfolds. But I love this guy [Kyle], I mean, so important to me.”

The Season 10 trailer indicates that the friends come to blows. Other cast members, including West, got pulled into the drama as they attempted to de-escalate the situation.

West then revealed that he had “blood” on his pants after getting “in the middle” of the brawl. He said, “I was like, ‘Just let him fight.’ But yeah, there were a lot of people, a lot of holding people back.”

John Mellencamp shocked listeners during an appearance on the Joe Rogan Experience podcast. He said that his daughter, Teddi Mellencamp was “really sick” with “cancer in the brain.” The doting father also lamented about her suffering.

Real Housewives of Beverly Hills fans believed that cancer had returned for the alum star. In October 2025, Teddi revealed that her body was cancer free. John’s recent statements were confusing at the very least. So the Two T’s in a Pod podcast co-host clarified the situation in a recent episode.

Teddi Mellencamp insists her cancer has not returned

Teddi clarified, “You know, I think when he said the words ‘suffering,’ he meant like, how I’m mentally doing versus how I’m physically doing.”

“Instantly people thought, ‘Oh my God, cancer’s back,’” her co-host Tamra Judge said.

Thankfully, according to Teddi, “there’s still no trace of cancer.” She added, “But I’m still considered stage four and I’m still in immunotherapy, so essentially nothing’s changed other than I still — I don’t feel great … I would hope that I would be feeling better by now, but I really don’t.”

Perhaps there is an emotional aspect to her healing journey. Teddi theorized that the extreme emotions of the past year are still affecting her.

“I also didn’t properly process all of the things that happened when I had surgery, like from my divorce [from Edwin Arroyave] to all of a sudden being in emergency surgery. Then, you know, not being able to see my kids when I was recovering. I think all of those things are starting to finally hit me now. I started doing therapy, and so it’s taken its toll on me,” she explained.

The RHOBH alum has been battling cancer since a stage 2 melanoma diagnosis in 2022. Doctors gave Teddi a 50/50 chance of survival after the cancer metastasized to her brain and lungs. The immunotherapy treatments themselves take a major toll.

“It’s hard for me to touch and move, and I can see that I’m slower than I was before, and that’s really frustrating to me. Like I want to be back to the way I used to be,” Teddi shared.

She continued, “I was really fighting for my life … now that the storm has calmed a little, now I’m starting to develop fear where I didn’t have fear before. Like I have fear to do a lot of things.”

Above all, the former Bravolebrity is terrified “that cancer is going to come back.” However, Teddi tries to treat “every day” as a “new day.”

After a lot of palpable chemistry between Craig Conover and Charley Manley, the duo went on a date. They trekked to an oyster farm on Season 11, Episode 9.

The Southern Charm duo shared their part in the planning of the date during the After Show. Charley had issues finalizing her look. Besides the logistics, the newbie Bravolebrity had to think about Salley Carson’s prior reaction to Craig’s behavior towards her.

The Southern Charm After Show gave more insight into the date

During the Southern Charm After Show, Craig explained why he chose the location. It turns out that it was a decision that took Charley’s comfort into account. When they were out in Charleston, she would “get nervous” about what the other cast ladies would say. Both Salley and Venita Aspen have issues with the Sewing Down South founder.

“I was like how fun will this be?” Craig said on the After Show. “Also, it will get us away from the people in Charleston — and by people, I mean our friends.”

Meanwhile, Charley gushed that the date was “seriously so fun.” She added, “”He knows how much I love oysters [and], like, thought that it would be cool to be able to see this process.”

Charley almost didn’t get her date look together on time. The Toteme rain boots she ordered hadn’t been delivered yet.

“Luckily, I know the route of my UPS driver,” she explained. “And, like, immediately, whenever I pull up, he knows. So, I was able to wear those boots. I wore little overalls. They were cute. It was hot.”

Charley scored the date “a nine out of 10” and enjoyed the hands-on experience. Meanwhile, Craig praised his co-star for handling “her own” in nature.

“We held a million oysters in our hand, like the babies,” he added. “Then, at the end, like, they had shucked us, like, a dozen oysters. And we sat up on this, like, deck on top of everything and looked out over the Lowcountry.”

Well, it’s finally happened. A current Summer House cast member already hooked up with a new cast member – and the show hadn’t started filming yet … West Wilson isn’t one of the core cast, but he’s going on three seasons, with a lot of dating drama under his belt.

On Season 8, West was pursuing Ciara Miller. After some sort of failed situationship, the duo spent most of Season 9 not interacting. The Season 10 trailer indicates that they re-examine their situation. But in the meanwhile, West might have drama with newbie Dara Levitan.

West Wilson and Summer House newbie Dara Levitan once dated

According to her official bio, Dara had “whirlwind romance” with West “years” ago. The “successful content creator” is anticipating “what, or who, the Hamptons have in store.” She’s had such success as a makeup artist that she’s worked with NARS, Fenty, and Pat McGrath.

Meanwhile, West confirmed that he dated Dara in an interview with Us Weekly. He shared, “It was a long time ago. She’s a good friend.” But it seems he isn’t concerned about lasting drama.

“I would never bring anyone into this house that I thought would give me more problems,” West added. “We’re very cool and platonic — she’s a fun person.”

That’s a contrasting situation to West’s interactions with Ciara post-split. At least this season, he feels “ready to date again and prioritize his happiness.” The bio continued, “Will West be able to confidently date in front of his housemates, or will he find himself retreating into a shell when things get complicated?”

As per the Season 10 trailer, Jesse Solomon seemingly makes a move on Ciara. If viewers can’t expect drama from West and Dara, one can look to Jesse for just that. Also, with Kyle Cooke and Amanda Batula separating, fans will be looking for clues in their interactions.
