Southern Charm season 10 is right around the corner, and its cast promises lots of drama with some returning members and new faces. Southern Charm season 10 will debut on December 5, 2024. One of Charleston’s unruly additions, Salley Carson, will join the cast. Sally had appeared as a guest on Southern Hospitality, where she had a brief relationship with Joe Bradley. Additionally, there will be another addition to the Southern Charm – a model and someone who once appeared on Below Deck.
Oliver Flowers, who had been an integral part of Southern Charm, confirmed that she’d not return for season 10. Patricia Altschul will be back alongside her son and show creator, Whitney Sudler-Smith, guiding the Grande Dame of Charleston. Southern Charm season 10 teases that there will be feuds within the group, with the greatest conflict this season being that of Craig Conover and Shep Rose. Here is the list of Southern Charmers who will take the viewers through season 10.
Venita Aspen
She Is A Model & An Influencer
Although Venita Aspen joined the Southern Charm cast in season 7 as a participant’s friend, she has been in the show’s background since season 2. Her approach to the show fights the stereotypes by trying to step into a predominantly white cast that romanticizes and glorifies the Old South. According to the Southern Charm season 10 trailer, Venita and Jarrett “JT” Thomas have strong feelings for each other, hinting at a potential romance story. In the teaser, Jarrett confessed his love for Venita (via Bravo):
“I’m extremely attracted to you? Yes. Are we on the same page?”
Venita seemed to agree as she took a sip from her wine glass. Venita was dating Manny, a musician in Southern Charm season 9. However, in November 2023, the Southern Charm reality star announced that Manny was her soulmate. According to People, Venita and Manny broke up last year. Therefore, it will be interesting to see how her connection with JT develops.
Leva Bonaparte
A Restaurateur & Club Owner
Leva Bonaparte’s ties to the Southern Charm squad are linked to former participant Cameran Eubanks before joining as a full-time cast in season 7. She’s married to a Charleston-based businessman, Lamar Bonaparte. The twosome has a 6-year-old son, Lamar Jr. Leva, who also appeared in her spin-off Southern Hospitality, a show that focused on the lives of Leva Bonaparte staff as they worked in the restaurants and bars. In Southern Charm season 10, Leva will continue being the voice of reason among her friends and will not hesitate to call them out when in the wrong.
Craig Conover
He’s A Lawyer
Craig Conover made his debut in Southern Charm in 2014. The reality star has also appeared in Winter House and Summer House. Craig was born on February 9, 1989, making him 35. He’s an attorney but owns Sewing Down South, an impressive pillow-making company. The Southern Charm star has been dating Paige DeSorbo since 2021. The two met in 2019 while filming Summer House and developed a close friendship.
Taylor Ann Green
She Works In Sales
Taylor Ann Green first joined the Bravo hit series in 2020. Taylor is in a happy relationship with her boyfriend, Gaston Rojas, after her relationship with fellow Southern Charm cast member Shep Rose ended. Taylor seems to be enjoying her new relationship. Taylor recently posted a carousel of images from her friend’s wedding. Gaston was also present, and the two looked lovely together. According to Bravo, Gaston is a former college baseball player and an MLB-certified agent.
Austen Kroll
He’s A Long-Time Girlfriend
Austen Kroll is a Southern Charm reality star who doesn’t shy away from sharing his love life. His relationship with Oliver Flowers played out in Southern Charm season 8. Olivia will not appear in season 10 since the production deemed her on a “different path.” However, Austen has moved on with a new long-distance girlfriend, and his love life seems solid. However, his relationship with his friend Craig is on the rocks. The BFFS seem to be a major fallout in Southern Charm season 10, with the cast questioning if Craig is with Paige for the long haul.
Madison LeCroy
She Has Been Global Trotting
Madison LeCroy introduced her husband, Brett Randle, in Southern Charm season 9. Madison shares one son, Hudson, with her ex, Josh Hughes. Together with Brett, the couple had been planning on adding another member of their family. The pair have been enjoying their honeymoon phase by globe-trotting in the Maldives and Dubai, as shown on her Instagram page (via Madison LeCroy). While talking to ET, Madison hinted at the drama that is about to unravel once Southern Charm debuts, thanks to JT.
Shep Rose
He Has A New Love Interest
Shep Rose is 44 and hails from Hilton Head Island, South Carolina. He recently declared he’s “in love” with former Miss Bahamas, Sienna Evans. The Southern Charm star will be part of the storyline once the new season drops due to his relationship status with former Miss Bahamas. While most cast members question if Sienna feels the same way about Shep, Madison isn’t convinced that the relationship is two-sided, something the viewers will discover once the new season premieres. Besides being a reality star, Shep owns Shep Gear, an online retail store that sells hats, t-shirts, dog collars and more.
Jarrett “JT” Thomas
He’s A Realtor
Jarrett “JT” Thomas is a professional real estate agent. He had linked up with Shep, Craig and Austen before joining Southern Charm season 9. He is originally from Virginia but currently resides in South Carolina. The 39-year-old Southern Charm star played soccer in college. JT, who was once married but divorced, declared his interest in Taylor when he became Southern Charm. Season 10 will be dramatic since the Southern Charmer will be making a move on Venita.
Ryan Albert
He’s A Stay-At-Home Husband
Ryan Albert is one of the newest Southern Charm reality stars joining the season 10 cast. He is Patricia’s close friend. Ryan is a stay-at-home husband who sometimes volunteers in organizations such as Big Brothers Big Sisters. He also loves traveling.

Rodrigo Reyes
He’s An Interior Designer
Rodrigo Reyes first joined the Southern Charm cast in season 9, and he’s back in season 10. His participation in the show gave Latinos some representation within the series, making it a major milestone in the Latino community.

Molly O’Connell
She’s A Model
Molly O’Connell is another new participant in Southern Charm. Molly has been friends with Craig for a long time and has even appeared in some of Southern Charm’s seasons. Molly was also a charter guest on Below Deck, so she might be a familiar face to some Southern Charm viewers. The reality star describes herself as a “model, musician, and menace” on her Instagram bio.
Salley Carson
Works For A Medical Device Company
Salley Carson is not new to the real world. The reality star appeared on The Bachelor in January 2022 during Clayton Echard’s season. Her appearance was short-lived since she self-eliminated. Later, Salley appeared in Bachelor in Paradise in 2022 before quitting. Salley graduated from the University of South Carolina with a Bachelor of Science and worked for a medical device company. Salley is already causing some stir in Southern Charm season 10 since she previously dated Taylor’s boyfriend, Gatson.
