Southern Charm just got extra spicy—Craig Conover is holding nothing back in the latest fallout shaking Charleston’s messiest friend group.
On a recent episode, Craig made a jaw-dropping confession during a sit-down with Shep Rose. The pillow king claimed that his longtime friend Austen Kroll crossed the line—repeatedly—by hooking up with multiple women from Craig’s past.
“I know multiple girls that I used to date that he went and slept with after,” Craig said, visibly frustrated. “His word doesn’t mean much when it comes to hooking up with girls.”
This wasn’t a one-time mistake, either. Craig made it clear this wasn’t a fluke but a pattern—one that’s damaged their friendship. “There’s a code,” he added. “And he broke it more than once.”
Even Shep, never one to stay quiet, chimed in with his own tea. He recalled a similar betrayal with ex-flame Chelsea Meissner. According to Shep, Austen wasted no time swooping in while he was out of town. “I left for the weekend… and he moved right in,” Shep said bluntly.
Fans have long suspected tension bubbling beneath Craig and Austen’s bromance—and now we know why. With Craig’s relationship with Paige DeSorbo growing stronger, it seems he’s also ready to cut out any lingering disloyalty in his inner circle.
As this drama continues to unfold, one thing is clear: trust on Southern Charm is in dangerously short supply.
