UPDATE: In a stunning revelation, Craig Conover disclosed that the viral TikTok reunion with his ex-girlfriend Naomie Olindo was entirely her idea. This comes just as anticipation builds for the premiere of Southern Charm Season 11 on November 19, 2023, at 9 p.m. ET/PT.
Fans erupted with excitement when Conover and Olindo reenacted their infamous “What’s wrong with my sewing?” scene, igniting nostalgia and curiosity about their current relationship dynamics. Speaking to Decider, Conover admitted he was initially “nervous” to participate but ultimately embraced the opportunity for closure among their devoted fanbase. “What great closure for everyone who’s been invested in our lives,” he stated.
Despite the playful TikTok moment, the possibility of rekindling their romance seems unlikely. Olindo is currently dating model Billy Haire, while Conover is exploring new dating prospects following his split from Paige DeSorbo last year. The Southern Charm star indicated he is open to future showmances, particularly with his co-star Salley Carson, as well as navigating the complexities of love in their tight-knit Charleston community.
This latest TikTok reunion shines a light on the evolving relationships within the Southern Charm cast. Conover emphasized the challenges of dating in a small town like Charleston, where overlapping social circles often lead to unexpected feelings. He explained, “With a town as small as Charleston, it’s really hard to find space, or at least enough space, to not develop feelings for people you hang out with.”
As excitement builds for BravoCon, Conover shared details about his collaboration with State Farm, where attendees can engage in hands-on activities, including embroidery and sewing, reflecting his journey from a young cast member to a seasoned entrepreneur with his brand, Sewing Down South.
With the premiere just days away, viewers can expect an engaging season filled with drama, evolving friendships, and personal growth. Conover appears ready to embrace this new chapter, stating, “You’re just going to watch me go through figuring life out, which is what so many people, I realize, are going through.”
What to watch for next: As Southern Charm’s Season 11 unfolds, fans can anticipate not only romantic developments but also the intricate dynamics between cast members as they navigate their personal and professional lives. This season promises to be a rollercoaster of emotions and revelations.
Stay tuned as this story develops, and catch the premiere of Southern Charm on Bravo on November 19.
