Southern Charm's Adorable Next Generation: Get to Know the Cast Members' Kids!
Discover the adorable children of the 'Southern Charm' cast, including Kathryn Dennis and Madison LeCroy Meet Hudson, Kensie, Saint, Palmer, Lamar Jr, Jonathan, Patton, Grayson, and Baby Meissner
Charleston is known for its abundance of perpetually youthful men, reminiscent of the character Peter Pan. However, a few members of the Southern Charm cast have defied this stereotype by embracing parenthood.
Kathryn Dennis, an original star of the Bravo series, initially appeared on the show as a single woman in search of her life partner. Although she did not find her soulmate on the show, Dennis did become a mother to two children, Kensie and Saint, during her relationship with Thomas Ravenel. Unfortunately, the couple separated in 2016.
Madison LeCroy, who joined the cast in Season 6, is a single mother to her son Hudson. After ending her on-off relationship with boyfriend Austen Kroll in 2020, LeCroy got married to Brett Randle in November 2022. Since then, the couple has been considering expanding their family by having a baby.
"I believe that the more money I can earn, the larger our family will become," LeCroy told We magazine exclusively in September 2023. "And I am enthusiastic about that."

‘Southern Charm’ Kids: Meet the Cast Members’ Children
Charleston may have its fair share of immortalized men, but a few members of the Southern Charm cast have defied that stereotype and embraced parenthood.
The very first star of the Bravo series, Kathryn Dennis, initially joined the show as an unmarried woman in search of her soulmate. Although she didn't discover her life partner on the show, Dennis did experience the joy of motherhood with her former partner, Thomas Ravenel. Their relationship ended in 2016, but together they welcomed two beautiful children into the world named Kensie and Saint.
In Season 6, Madison LeCroy became a new member of the cast, portraying a single mother to her son, Hudson. Following her breakup with her on-and-off boyfriend, Austen Kroll, in 2020, LeCroy tied the knot with Brett Randle in November 2022. Since then, the couple has been contemplating expanding their family by having a baby.
"In September 2023, LeCroy shared exclusively with We that the larger her income, the larger her family will grow. She expressed her excitement about this possibility."
