Craig Conover shared with Us in March that if they come back, there will be a lot to talk about. He mentioned that he and Shep Rose are in an interesting spot, reflecting on their past conversations with Austen that were very real and raw.
Craig mentioned that the conversation shown on the episode was just a snippet of a longer discussion. He explained that due to time constraints, he and Shep had only scratched the surface in their interactions since the reunion. They run into each other at the gym but have yet to delve into deeper topics like Shep's trip to Costa Rica and how it has impacted his life. Craig expressed his anticipation of having these meaningful conversations if the show returns, hoping to rebuild his friendship with Shep.
In addition, Craig touched upon the fluid nature of the casting process for the show, especially amidst rumors about cast members leaving, such as Oliver Flowers. He compared it to a baseball contract, highlighting that there is no guarantee of returning if one simply shows up. Craig praised the previous season for its spontaneity, where filming started without too much structure, leading to the authentic craziness that Charleston brings. He expressed his desire for a similar approach if the show is renewed, emphasizing the unpredictability and excitement that comes with filming in Charleston.
One thing viewers can always count on in Southern Charm is seeing Craig's girlfriend, Paige, 31.
Craig shared, "After 10 years, I am thankfully entering a new chapter in my life with my real relationship with Paige. I have cut down on drinking, although I still have a drink occasionally. I am now questioning if Charleston and my friend group still align with this new phase in my life. I am excited to explore these changes, and I believe viewers will be interested to see how it unfolds."
