Who will star in Southern Charm Season 11?
The Southern Charm cast members who will return for Season 11 are Craig Conover, Shep Rose, Austen Kroll, Madison LeCroy, Venita Aspen, Rodrigo Reyes, Salley Carson, and Molly O’Connell. New to the uh-Holy City crew are former model Charley Manley and Shep’s friend Whitner Slagsvol.
Whitney Sudler-Smith (who also executive produces the series) and his mother Patricia Altschul will also return as guest stars.
This means that several of the regular cast members from Season 10 will not return. Jarrett “JT” Thomas exited the series while Season 10 was still airing — in fact, he quit mid-production on the taped interviews portion, though he did return for the reunion special.Then, Leva Bonaparte announced that she was done with the series after four seasons. In a st atement on Instagram, she explained she wanted to “focus on Boys and my Joys” but will be appearing “in full force” on the spinoff Southern Hospitality, which centers on the employees of her bar. A few weeks later, Taylor Ann Green announced she would not be returning to Southern Charm either, writing on Instagram that her decision came after “a lot of conversations and thought.” She now intends to spend time focusing on her new athleisure line. Finally, Ryan Albert, who first joined in Season 10, is also not part of the Season 11 cast.
What will happen in Southern Charm Season 11?
Bravo has released the first trailer for Southern Charm Season 11, and in it, the newly single Craig finds himself at the center of many, many arguments, as Salley and others vie for his affection. Plus, Madison welcomes her new baby.
Bravo has also revealed the following teasers about what to expect from all of the Charmers, old and new, this season:
- Months after his break-up, Craig is determined to embrace being single and focus on his growing businesses. He’s one of Charleston’s most eligible bachelors, but in his quest to move on his friends start to notice that old habits die hard.
- Austen is beginning to have doubts about his future with Audrey after nearly two years together. The group can see the signs, including him adopting two cats on his own, but their meddling antics aren’t exactly what Austen wanted. His relationship with Audrey isn’t the only one on the line as long-simmering resentments between him and Craig reach a new breaking point.
- After his situationship with Sienna, Shep is focused on something more permanent – purchasing a new house. He continues to be caught between Craig and Austen’s crossfire, and one of his most valuable friendships is at risk when he gets embroiled in a nasty rumor.
- Proudly single Salley’s interest in Craig has been clear since his breakup, but Austen’s potential new relationship status has her head turning. As the group wonders who she really wants, some of her important female friendships feel betrayed
- Struggling to make sense of her futile relationship with JT, Venita found solace in her deepening friendship with Salley. After Venita sparred with Craig on social media, she has concerns that Salley’s interest in him might put a serious wedge in their friendship.
- Salley’s friend Charley is a small-town girl who moved to Charleston to work in the city’s thriving art scene. Her beauty, grace and charm immediately catch Craig’s eye, which creates a jealous rivalry between Charley and the very person who introduced them.
- Madison’s fairytale continues as she and Brett have a baby girl on the way and are moving into their dream home. But as Madison stays sober while the parties turn messy, she’s taking names and not letting any misbehavior slip through the cracks.
- Molly continues to charm with her quirkiness. As her music career continues to take off, she struggles with a fear of singing publicly. However, she’s fearless in calling out Salley for not being a girls’ girl.
- As Rodrigo celebrates his engagement to Tyler, his honest opinions continue to challenge the group. He looks out for Austen and Craig, but sometimes that means tough love.
- Whitner is a handsome lawyer, a long-standing friend of Shep’s and a former law school mate of Craig’s. He has keen perspective, which manifests into an ability to mediate group conflict like an old pro.
