More on Peacock:

When does Southern Charm Season 11 come out?

The new season of Southern Charm will premiere Wednesday, Nov. 19 at 9/8c on Bravo. Episodes will stream the following day on Peacock. Aside from a COVID delay in 2020, Southern Charm's recent seasons have usually stuck with a release cadence of slightly over a year, however, the gap between Seasons 10 and 11 is just 11 months, as Season 10 was released in December 2024.

When did Southern Charm Season 11 film?

Filming on Southern Charm Season 11 began in April 2025 and wrapped in July. That means the cameras captured big events like Madison's baby shower. That time period is also an important one for Craig, who would have still been fresh from his breakup with Paige.

Is there a Season 11 Southern Charm promo?

There sure is, check it out below.

Where did Southern Charm leave off?

Last year, the charmers wrapped their season with a jail-themed soiree co-hosted by Madison LeCroy and Ryan Albert. There, Shep Rose got over his failed relationship with Sienna Evans by taking Molly O'Connell as his date. They shared a kiss that transformed into a night that ended Molly's dry spell. Later, at the reunion, they claimed to be just friends who had had a good time, despite the pressure from their castmates to pursue more.

Meanwhile, Craig Conover still believed he and Summer House star Paige DeSorbo had a future, but by the time the reunion aired they were done-zo. Paige broke up with Craig before Christmas, saying she needed to focus on herself for a while. Now Craig is one of the most eligible, albeit bitter, bachelors in Charleston, which should be a big theme this season. 

Things were happier for Madison and her husband, Brett Randle, who received a clean bill of health after a cancer scare. Even more good news came via the reunion, where Madison revealed the baby bump of all baby bumps, surprising her co-stars and host Andy Cohen

Madison's ex, Austen Kroll, managed to end on good terms this past season too, and found himself in a solid place with Craig and the rest of the crew. He also continued a strong romance with Audrey Pratt, but knowing Austen he's not great at letting a good thing ride. TBD if the pair will be together this upcoming season, or if that relationship is on the rocks. 

Then there's Venita Aspen, whose weird romance with Jarrett "JT" Thomas came to an angry end after he hard-launched another relationship on Instagram. After defending the guy all season long, Venita finally gave up, and in the time between seasons she's taken plenty of shots at JT online. 

As for new cast member and former Bachelor star Salley Carson, she ended things with fire after failing to come to terms with Taylor Ann Green. Too bad, considering they clearly have the same taste in men. Fellow newbie Rodrigo Reyes watched it all from afar, with plenty of snips and quips to keep him in our hearts heading into Season 11.

Returning cast members include Craig Conover, Austen Kroll, Madison LeCroy, Rodrigo Reyes, Venita Aspen, Salley Carson, Molly O'Connell, and Shep Rose. JT Thomas, Ryan Albert, Leva Bonaparte, and Taylor Ann Green have all departed, although we never say never when it comes to familiar faces popping up on this series. 

Who is joining Southern Charm in Season 11?

Salley's friend Charley Manley and Shep's friend Whitner Slagsvol join the cast for Season 11. Charley is a former beauty queen who moved to the city for the arts scene, but her small-town demeanor will catch Craig's attention and quickly cause a rift with Salley. Whitner (not to be confused with executive producer and sometimes cast member Whitney Sudley-Smith) also knows Craig from his law school days. He's a lawyer who brings a new perspective to many of the arguments, but the question is, does he know how to pick his battles?

Are Whitney and Patricia returning to Southern Charm?

Would it even be Southern Charm without Patricia Altschul's classic dinner parties or her gossip sessions with her son, Whitney? Of course not, and they both feature throughout the season. We can't wait for Pat's hot takes on the new cast members, nor her tea sessions with Madison, especially now that Madison is once again a new mom. 

What storylines can we expect in Southern Charm Season 11?

Love lives and triangles always anchor the narratives surrounding this crew, and Season 11 is no exception. Now that Craig is single again (he briefly dated influencer Natalie Buffett) he'll go into the season claiming to be a new man. But we all know old habits die hard, and it won't take long for him to come between Charley and Salley. 

Speaking of Salley, she's always held a torch for Craig, but when she hears that Austen's relationship is on the rocks she may set her sights elsewhere. That won't sit well with any of the girls, and it sounds like Salley is in the running to take over as the girl no one wants to trust. 

That includes Venita and Molly, who is using this season to further her music career. The only problem? Girl has a fear of public singing. 

Girl trouble isn't the only kind brewing for Craig. In addition to some social media slamming from co-star Venita, he and Austen may be on the outs again. These two have had lots of ups and downs over the years, so this latest bump feels like it was only a matter of time. Shep will try to help, but with his own rumors to deal with and the purchase of a new house, he'll have plenty else to keep him busy. 

Rodrigo may also try to help, but his brand of advice typically includes honesty that these men can't always take. Plus he'll have his engagement to Tyler Dugas to celebrate. And after nine years together, those two deserve all the celebrations. 

Things will be calmer from Madison as she abstains from the drink due to her pregnancy, but being the only sober person in a room can be eye-opening. Here's predicting she catches lots of hot tips over the season and holds every single person accountable along the way. After all, isn't that why we love her? 

How will this season of Southern Charm compare to others?

This season will be an important one for the series because it's introducing new characters and dynamics that veer the series away from the playboys it initially started with. Although these men and their inability to grow up continue to be the series' main theme, life events like Madison having another baby may ground the crew in reality and have them considering their own life choices. 

Some viewers feel as though the show has run its course, and are tired of seeing the same men replay the same mistakes over and over again. However, with new cast members coming in to shake up the dynamics, now is a good time for a refresh. If the show digs deeper into the relationships of it all and make these socialites worth rooting for again, this could be the redemption season Southern Charm needs.
