Craig Conover<\/strong>\u00a0is ready for cameras to roll on season 10 of\u00a0Southern Charm.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cIf we come back, we\u2019ve got a ton to share. I think the boys are in an interesting spot, especially me and\u00a0Shep [Rose],<\/strong>\u201d Craig, 35, exclusively told\u00a0Us Weekly<\/em>\u00a0at an NYC event celebrating Panera\u2019s new era, which includes 21 menu updates.<\/p>\n

The Bravo star reminded\u00a0Us<\/em>\u00a0that the last time fans saw the group in late 2023, Craig, Shep and\u00a0Austen Kroll<\/strong>\u00a0were having a \u201cvery real, very raw\u201d conversation about drinking \u2013 and they are hoping to continue the conversation on camera.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou saw a portion of a much longer conversation. [There\u2019s] not enough time in an episode. Shep and I \u2014 we\u2019ve kept things surface level [since the reunion]. We go to the gym at the same time and we see each other, but I think that\u2019s a big conversation [to continue on the show],\u201d Craig said. \u201cAsking, \u2018How was his trip to Costa Rica? What did he take from it and how is he living his life now?\u2019 We haven\u2019t had that conversation yet. So if we come back, I think it\u2019s gonna be something that I\u2019m excited to get off my chest. I\u2019m excited to have a friendship with Shep again.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bravo has yet to publicly announce plans for season 10 of\u00a0Southern Charm<\/em>, but cast member\u00a0Madison LeCroy<\/strong>\u00a0said earlier this month via Instagram Stories that the show will be back. Reports have also surfaced that the series will return with a few changes, including the potential exits of\u00a0Olivia Flowers, Leva Bonaparte\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0Rod Razavi<\/strong>. (Leva also films spinoff\u00a0Southern Hospitality<\/em>\u00a0for the network, so it\u2019s possible she may have a scaled back role.)<\/p>\n

\u201cWe love Olivia, so I hope that\u2019s not the case,\u201d Craig told\u00a0Us<\/em>. \u201cAusten probably has a different answer because him and\u00a0JT [Thomas]<\/strong>\u00a0\u2014 they rile each other up [over Olivia]. But you gotta find peace with whatever\u2019s going on. I think last season was so good because, obviously, you still have to have some structure to make a show, but they kind of just showed up and started filming and I hope, if we come back, that\u2019s what happens because there\u2019s always craziness in Charleston. I love having\u00a0Rodrigo [Reyes],<\/strong>\u00a0Rod and Olivia all around.\u201d<\/p>\n

Craig noted that casting is \u201ca little more fluid than people think,\u201d explaining, \u201cIt\u2019s not like a baseball contract. If you showed up, they\u2019d be like, \u2018Hey what are you doing here?’\u201d<\/p>\n

There\u2019s also been a change in Austen\u2019s life as he now has a girlfriend named\u00a0Audrey Pratt.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s actually calling [her] his girlfriend. I\u2019m rooting for him always and we love her. She\u2019s great. She came to me and Paige\u2019s New Year\u2019s party at our house. We\u2019ll see what happens with him,\u201d Craig told\u00a0Us<\/em>.<\/p>\n

He noted that viewers would see a continued change in him too.<\/p>\n

\u201cAfter 10 years, fortunately, [I\u2019m] going into this new era in my life,\u201d he said, citing his \u201creal relationship\u201d with\u00a0Paige DeSorbo<\/strong>, his company, Sewing Down South, growing and opening up a new location in Nashville and his own relationship with alcohol. \u201cI don\u2019t really drink anymore \u2014 I still have drinks \u2014 but what does that look like for me now? Does Charleston still fit? Does my friend group still fit? All things that I\u2019m excited to explore but I think people would be excited to keep watching.\u201d<\/p>\n

Craig isn\u2019t the only one in a new \u201cera,\u201d telling\u00a0Us<\/em> that he is all in on Panera\u2019s.<\/p>\n

\u201cPaige was saying earlier, \u2018I think this is the most authentic partnership we\u2019ve ever done,’\u201d Craig told\u00a0Us<\/em>, adding the couple used to eat Panera all the time when they got together. \u201cIt never got old and I think that\u2019s why this is so exciting with the new era. I\u2019ve always been a huge soup guy, but their sandwiches are great \u2014 Ciabatta Cheesesteak [and] the Italian sandwich, Toasted Italiano, is right up Paige\u2019s alley. I was like, \u2018I think I\u2019m a Panera sandwich guy now.\u2019 And the new mac and cheese with bacon on it is great and the salads are always awesome.\u201d<\/p>\n

Panera must have a real special place in Craig\u2019s heart, because he even lets Paige eat it in her favorite place \u2014 bed.<\/p>\n

\u201cI usually get mad \u2014 well, not mad but \u2014 the eating in the bed thing sometimes gets messy, but if it\u2019s Panera, it\u2019s allowed,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
