JT offends Miss Patricia

[Mindthinkr]

🙀 I might be able to forgive JT for giving her the bedazzled cane, but calling her a b___h…….no way. He probably walked away because everyone must have distanced themselves from him after such a faux pas.

I never liked him. 

Craig looks bloated again. 

One of the new male cast members looks as if he has a toupee on.

The way Thomas tells it, he was simply being a gracious host by offering his guests copious amounts of cocaine.

He simply MUST pass on this "party hosting" tip to Ms. Patricia!

Good interview with Craig, a lot of insight into what was going on during filming.

I read the interview, and found this statement to be one of the most interesting:

This interview has been edited for length and clarity.  That my friends, is a hell of an edit. 🙃

Shep and Austen lost their bar buddy, and they are upset. 

Only Shep and Craig agreed to film with JT. Most of the cast members didn't want to.

Venita and Madison describe the sad way a fan (stalker according to Madison) of the show used Shep Rose and tricked him into falling in love during season 10. There's a whole TikTok of Sienna's actual boyfriend floating around on the internet. She had a boyfriend that she decided to post after filming ended.

We are going to see Sienna with Shep on tonight's episode. We saw them FaceTiming in the previous episode.

I've seen some mention of this, maybe it was on WWHL?  I believe Andy said we will learn much more about Shep's "girlfriend".

Shep is a grown-ass man.  He knows so much more than anyone else.  He is so much smarter, so much wiser, has so much feedback on how others run their lives.  (insert sarcasm right here).  Run  your own damn life, Shep.

It's sad but not surprising.  When Craig said on WWHL that he & Paige were taking their relationship one day at a time...oof that didn't sound good to me.  

IDK, I just always got the vibe that Paige just wasn't that into him 🤷‍♀️

Paige does not want to live in Charleston and Craig's business is in Charleston, I think it would be a difficult compromise for either of them.

Very true. I also Craig as wanting to settle in and start his family and she’s not there either. I hope the best for both of them. 
 

I can see next season focusing on newly single Craig and all the damsels that will be throwing themselves at him. I imagine this season is going to show us the cracks in their relationship.

Yes. After three years of dating. There were rumors Bravo asked them to stay together longer the last time they supposedly broke up according to this:

He just opened a store in Nashville, and was ready to open a bar with a partner in New York. He already opened a bar in Charleston. These businesses could operate without him be present all the time. I think Paige wanted him to permanently move to New York, and she, as others mentioned didn't want to get married.

I'm sure Craig's DM's are already overflowing.

To all the gals DM'ing him:  Craig likes 'em brunette, tiny, and snarky.

I won't miss Paige's "like" heavy vocal fry.   Girl, practice saying 3 sentences without using "like".

 

 

 

[chlban]

Anyone watching had to see this coming. I never felt like they had any Chemistry. Maybe it was just that he was so much more into her than she was into him but I think he dodged a bullet. 

[Starlight925]

Paige gives shades of Naomi.  Pretty, brunette, couldn't be less interested in what makes Craig happy.  

Craig's "If you build it they will come" mentality with his house, his pool, the huge deck, hasn't paid off with this group who would rather drink lukewarm bad TropHop beer on a sweaty patio at a college-age bar.

I do hope Craig finds himself a sweet girl to use his thawed out sperm with.

Frankly I am surprised that none of the guys have oops babies out there in Charleston, I mean other than Katheryn and Thomas.

Andy Cohen and his team are preparing for the reunion. ALREADY? Is this going to be a short season?

Edited January 20 by ZettaK

[heatherchandler]

There’s literally nothing happening!  Why did they bother with this season?

[nexxie]

Taylor brought her mother and Gaston’s mother with her to tape Watch What Happens Live - an idea that seemed less than stellar when Andy asked about Sally’s bj story. Poor Taylor needs to buy a clue.

[snarts]

Oh, so this is interesting...

Apparently Molly has a long-term boyfriend she's kept hidden.

I saw this on TikTok but the evidence he showed that they were together recently is sketchy.  I think the photo in this article of them together is 4 yrs old.  Not saying he's lying or she is but I'm just gonna need some more receipts.

 

Madison is pregnant!!

 

Southern Charm Reunion

S/C is filming their reunion today and J.T. is in the seating chart (!!)

[ZettaK]

If it's true about Molly, it makes two of them. Sienna had a boyfriend at the time she was "dating" Shep.

[aghst]

I guess young women can't come on the show as new cast unless they're faux romantically linked with one of the male cast.

Some of them have little or no ties to Charleston.  But in the Bravoverse, that doesn't matter, just someone who may contribute to drama is the main prerequisite.

That would be delightful schadenfreude. He was raving about how great she is on Watch What Happens Live at the same time he was claiming he was not shocked Craig and Paige broke up. 

Edited February 9 by ZettaK

[ZettaK]

Craig was on Watch What Happens Live that aired after the episode. He said that Paige broke up with him, he was going to move to New York, and she doesn’t even talk to him now. 

Austen said last week on WWHL that Paige has already a new boyfriend, who she could be seeing before the breakup. 

[bosawks]

I don't have a dog in this fight since I would have to put in considerable effort to care less about the dating habits of BRAVO people than I already do but when both Austen and Craig are saying the same thing then I am inclined to believe the opposite is true.

[aghst]

I just watched WWHL with Craig talking about his breakup.

He says love is all you need, he will always root for love.

He talks about how painful, how he's gone through the various stages and so on.

But much of the time he has the same vapid smile on that he usually does.

Craig tried to sell his supposed heartbreak.  But he's still got business cooking and he's on Raya, looking for love!

He said he was going to propose by the end of last year, spent Thanksgiving with Paige and parents and shortly after she dumped him.

Andy asks him about rumors that she's already dating another guy.  He said it's none of his business.  

Pretty phlegmatic and cool about the supposed love of his life possibly cheating on him.

Maybe because the relationship was a ruse all along.

But he's flashing that smile so he'll be linked with some pretty younger sweet thing.

[ZettaK]

Andy Cohen asked Craig if it was a fake relationship. He answered "for three years"?

[aghst]

How much time in those 3 years did they spend together?

They did a lot more FaceTime than Shep and Sienna but that isn’t saying much.

[Thumper]

I thought Craig handled Andy’s questions well.  He’s had some time to process, said it’s been difficult, but that he is trying to move on.  I didn’t expect him to break down in tears on WWHL.  Three years is a long time to spend on a “fake” relationship.  
 

IMO, Paige just kept putting him off.  He seemed ready for more, and she was not.  It happens.

[Back Atcha]

•    From “Screen Rant,” Summer House’s Ciara Miller shaded Southern Charm fans and Patricia Altschul, hinted why she wasn’t surprised by friend Paige DeSorbo’s split with Craig Conover, and said she won’t pretend that Craig was “the ultimate peach.”
•    On a recent episode of Watch What Happens Live, Craig’s Southern Charm co-star Patricia suggested Paige was mean to Craig throughout their relationship, and she claimed that he deserves someone who will cherish and love him.
•    Paige and Craig broke up at the end of last year. Craig later revealed that Paige initiated it, and many fans have criticized her over rumors that she was seeing another man while still in a relationship with Craig.
•    Speaking with Us Weekly, Ciara hinted that she wasn’t surprised by the split because she has had a “front-row seat” to their relationship “for three years,” and there were “some things” that made her think “this isn’t it.”
•    She said the “misogyny” toward Paige online is “crazy.”
•    “I’m also not going to sit here and act like … Craig is just the ultimate peach,” she continued. “I’m sorry, but [Paige] did a lot of work to get him to this point where he’s at … whether he’ll give her credit or not. The Craig that we know now is not the Craig that we were dealing with three years ago.”
•    She suggested that people are “mean” to Craig for a reason.
•    “[And] what’s your definition of ‘mean?’ Like [that Paige is] not kissing the ground that he walks on? She has an opinion about things?” Ciara asked. “I’m sorry, but Craig had three years to move to New York, and he didn’t. He had three years to buy a ring — I don’t really feel like he bought a ring.”
•    According to Ciara, she’d take the Summer House audience “all day long” over Southern Charm’s fans, who are “super insanely traditional misogynistic” and “old school.”
•    She also threw shade at Patricia, 83.
•    “I’ll be damned if I’m an 80-year-old woman sitting on TV and coming after another woman saying that she’s being mean to someone,” said the star. “No, no, no. I think we need to ask ourselves different questions.”
 

[bosawks]

I thought I didn't care when they first broke up but that pales to the amount I currently don't care that they broke up.

Late to the discussion...and kinda on/kinda off topic, but it IS about Shep.  Do you recall his SHOCK that Taylor was "in a relationship" with Gaston.  Shep actually said to her, "He's not even good-looking."  Does that mean Shep thinks HE is?  What a doofus...a 45yr-old doofus. How embarrassing for that juvenile comment to be broadcast on television.  Do men even say stuff like that? Middle-aged men?

Madison laughed at the idea of having an affair with JT because she said have you seen my husband, inferring JT is not nearly good looking enough compared to her husband...who in my opinion is very average.  Apparently only good looking people really rate in their worlds.
