Cast, Premiere Date, And More

Southern Charm Season 10 can’t come quickly enough!

Many Bravo fans are still reeling from the Southern Charm Season 9 drama.

But … when is Season 10?

Fear not: Bravo has already confirmed the show’s renewal. Here’s everything that we know about the cast, the storylines, and when to expect the premiere.

‘Southern Charm’ Season 10 is on the way

Back in May, Bravo officially renewed Southern Charm for its tenth season. That was not a surprise — the reality series is infamous, entertaining, and arguably played a role in the rise and fall of a couple of Hollywood marriages.

Each new season comes with changes — whether it’s the cast, the storylines, behind-the-scenes drama, or all three.

Season 10 of Southern Charm will feature a new cast member, and it’s someone already familiar to many reality TV viewers.

Members of the Bachelor Nation will recognize Salley Carson, of The Bachelor and Bachelor in Paradise.

In March of 2022, she confirmed on Instagram that she had moved back to Charleston. The following month, People confirmed her casting.

We don’t yet know what sort of storyline she’ll offer to Bravo viewers. However, she seems to be very good friends with Venita Aspen. That dynamic will be fun to watch, judging by their social media activities.

Who else is joining the cast of ‘Southern Charm’ Season 10?

We cannot yet confirm this, but rumor has it that America’s Next Top Model and Below Deck alum Molly O’Connell will be joining the cast.

She has appeared on the show before, in a minor role. She showed up during a party on Southern Charm Season 6. At that time, some reports claimed that she and Whitney Sudler-Smith were in a relationship.

If there are any other new additions to the cast, that’s all that we know. But what of returning cast members?

It will surprise no one to hear that Madison LeCroy confirmed her return to the show in March. She will be hosting the first part of the season.

Madison has really calmed down in a lot of ways since her villain era. She could always return to that, though … which remains part of her appeal as part of the cast.

Who else is returning to the show?

Other than Madison, no one has formally announced their triumphant return for Southern Charm Season 10.

But until we hear ugly rumors to the contrary, we all expect to see Craig Conover, Shep Rose, Austen Kroll, Venita Aspen, and Taylor Ann Green return.

(Especially Venita. Casting her friend for the show would be a weird choice if they aren’t keeping her on it)

There are rumors circulating that JT — Jarrett Thomas — will return for Season 10.

Remember, he’s something of a load-bearing cast member, because he dished on Austen and Taylor hooking up.

Rodrigo Reyes, whom we saw on Season 9, could also make a comeback.

Who ISN’T returning for Season 10?

That said, Rod Razavi and Olivia Flowers might not return. This is, to be clear, solely rumor, but it’s the best that we have to go on until Bravo makes an announcement.

Remember, Olivia was not a happy camper for a lot of Season 9.

Sometimes, that kind of drama helps someone negotiate a pay raise and boost their reality career. Other times, it can mean that someone’s too miserable to keep filming. That’s always pretty bleak. And very sad.

Alarm bells have been going off over rumors that Leva Bonaparte might not return. Again, these are only rumors.

We have to emphasize that she’s shown up — on social media — with others, including Venita.

If she’s still hanging out with other Southern Charm stars, it’s very likely that she’s returning. It’s conceivable that she’s just very busy and might have a reduced, “Friend of” role for Season 10.

When will ‘Southern Charm’ Season 10 premiere?

Bravo has yet to announce the premiere date for Season 10. Generally speaking, however, Southern Charm premieres a new season in early autumn or in early spring.

It’s entirely possible that we could be looking at a late September or early October premiere. That said, Bravo is smart to take their time with production. We could be looking at a break from the pattern, or an April 2025 premiere date.

As for what storylines Season 10 is likely to feature, we have a little more info.

These days, Craig and Shep have some strain in their friendship.

They need to have a serious heart-to-heart before they can renew their friendship in earnest — and Craig has hinted that they’ll have that conversation on camera.

On a lighter note, Craig and Austen have a new bar in Charleston. We’ll definitely see that, and perhaps where it intersects with Austen’s romance with Audrey Pratt.
