The charmers of South Carolina’s social circles are coming back with a quarantine-special season later next month. Cable channel Bravo’s reality show Southern Charm will premiere its new season on October 29 and will document the Charmers’ lives from February to July 2020.
Viewers will get to witness exclusive self-shot footage when the coronavirus pandemic hit Charleston. Revealing more about what’s next for the reality show, Bravo said this season will see the addition of Leva Bonaparte, Madison LeCroy, and John Pringle.
They will also be joined by longtime friend Danni Baird, as well as Whitney Sudler-Smith and his mother, Charleston grande dame Patricia Altschul.
The series follows the personal and professional lives of socialites who reside in Charleston, South Carolina. Returning Charmers include Craig Conover, Kathryn Dennis, Austen Kroll, and Shep Rose.
In a press release earlier today, Bravo explained each Charmer’s story.
1. Kathryn’s Gossip Trouble
No stranger to outside criticisms from those in her small town, a fiery and unapologetic Kathryn is forced to answer to a string of questionable mishaps that leave her friends doubting her motives.
Letting her gossiping ways get the best of her, she lands in hot water after sharing what she perceives to be old news and is wholly unprepared for the repercussions.
2. Therapy and Quarantine
Equipped with a new therapist and an improved attitude, long-time bachelor Shep may have finally found the one, but they begin to question whether their honeymoon phase can survive the pressures of quarantine and COVID-19.
3. A Balancing Act
Craig finds himself struggling to reconcile his stagnant personal life with his thriving professional endeavours. While his company Sewing Down South sees exponential growth, he is stuck living with Austen as he attempts to get his personal affairs in order.
Meanwhile, Austen seems to have finally discovered the secret to success both personally and professionally.
He accomplishes a major milestone with his beer business, but his good fortune suddenly comes crashing down when the pandemic hits and everything he has worked so hard for hangs in the balance.
4. Honeymoon Hindered
Familiar face Madison is at a crossroad in her relationship with Austen. Convinced that he is the one for her, she quickly realizes they may be in over their heads when the pandemic threatens to tear them apart.
As she attempts to sort out her feelings, Patricia seizes the opportunity to play matchmaker and set Madison up with the man she deserves.
5. Dreaming A New South
Leva and her husband Lamar are known for their success in the Charleston nightlife and hospitality scene. After years of mingling with the Charmers in the same social circles, Leva leads the charge in her quest to alter the social landscape of her adopted southern hometown.
In a bi-racial marriage to a Charleston native and raising a son who is Black and Persian, she advocates for a “new south” that embraces her family’s varied culture and promises a brighter future.
Meanwhile, her willingness to call her friends out in the hope of shifting their perspectives might be more than they can handle.
6. Back to Roots
Introduced to the group through his college fraternity brother Shep, John leaves his life behind in Los Angeles to reclaim his seventh-generation Charleston roots.
His search for a more tranquil life proves far from easy, as he grapples with being a single dad living 3,000 miles away from his sons and is quickly caught up in a debate with the guys about bro-code when he shows interest in Madison.
