Southern Charm‘s Whitney Sudler-Smith is getting closer to settling down. Whitney shared some major updates about his love life during BravoCon 2025, but his mom, Patricia Altschul, has some doubts about it.
Whitney appeared on the It’s All About to Go South panel on Sunday, Nov. 16, alongside Patricia, where he revealed that he has been having “an on-and-off thing with a girl in Europe” and he is excited about their future. “At some point, might tie the knot,” he added. “Maybe not, I don’t know. We’ll see how it goes.”
“But it’s a work in progress,” he concluded.
Although Whitney admitted to “lying” about stating that he wanted to get married soon, Austen Kroll confirmed that he has some big plans for the future. “Whitney was pretty serious about that,” Austen confirmed. “I remember talking to you and I was pretty shocked by it.”
“I think Whitney’s closer than we think,” Austen stated.
Patricia, who was sitting directly next to Whitney at the panel, expressed her own doubts for her only son’s future. “I’ll believe it when I see it,” she said, to applause from the audience.
But, she was once hopeful about this. Patricia spoke with The Daily Dish in March, where she admitted that she was optimistic about Whitney getting married in the future. “I’m still hopeful. As long as I’m still breathing, I’m still hopeful,” she said.
However, she revealed that she was not waiting with baited breath, either. “I’m not holding my breath, I’ve done it before…He doesn’t like it when I talk about his, you know, who he’s seeing. I don’t know that anything is serious right now. I know there’s a contender, but let’s just wait and see,” she added.
Yes, she does. During Southern Charm Season 9, Patricia appeared in a confessional where she stated that she wants Whitney to have kids. “I want Whitney to have a family,” she said during Episode 15. “He’s an only child and…it just seems like life is slipping away.”
“I want him to get married now,” she added. “I mean, I did it after a couple of minutes. I don’t know why he can’t.”
On this episode of The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City, Britani gets to be the center of attention after Meredith‘s alleged outburst on the plane. As the women rally around her, she is feeling little warmth from
Speaking of love, Bronwyn and Lisa are navigating changes with their husbands. But when Mary invites them to her church, a powerful sermon may guide the group to exactly what they need.
In an effort to cheer Britani up, Whitney has decided to host a surprise potluck. After everything that went down between Britani and Meredith, this group could stand a little fun. And
She is completely shocked by the “Britani Tribute Band” and is thrilled to finally have a day that is all about her-and she didn’t even need to make a toast! Bronwyn has set up a mobile teddy bear station in an effort to make amends for tossing Uni overboard.
The ladies record messages to go inside each stuffy for Britani (ala Jared), but Mary bows out. She is still keeping Britani at arms length after she called Mary “the least Christ-like person” she has ever met. But you know what Meredith and Lisa did must’ve been pretty bad if Mary is there to support HER…
Bronwyn shares that Meredith thinks she was having a calm conversation with Lisa and Britani simply overheard. According to Meredith, she did nothing to Britani. But the women are aghast.
Whitney observes that Bronwyn is not wearing her wedding ring. Bronwyn opens up about life after the Tweet came out. She kicked Todd out of the house for a few days once she saw the Tweet of Todd perusing photos of another woman during a flight. Todd tried to gaslight Bronwyn and she is embarrassed by the secrecy surrounding the whole situation.
She goes on to say that there is currently no arrangement of any kind in their marriage, but she would be willing to talk about it with him if it meant evolving with him. Hello,
Mary’s church has been in her family for 60 years and it is finally getting reopened after two long years of renovations. Robert Jr
. and Mary tour the space and he talks about AA meetings. God has helped Robert Jr. try to navigate his journey and he admits that all of his friends from treatment have already relapsed.
Mary understands the strength of prayer and God and she is hoping that by opening the doors to the friend group, they can heal and rebuild relationships.
Over a quick bite, Lisa and
John points out that Lisa doesn’t listen and he scoffs when Lisa calls herself a great listener. Lisa worries about not being on the same page, but John feels like Lisa just wants everyone on HER page. She cuts him off when he tries to explain his side of things.
A big part of the problem with their relationship is that they are too ingrained with business. They have almost nothing else to talk about BUT business, according to John. He admits that he doesn’t even hug Lisa as much and he states they have a “communication breakdown.”
Britani meets with Jared…ya know, the guy she was supposed to stay away from for 30 days. They embrace for far too long and Britani is hopeful because he actually reached out to HER. Jared does not like how Britani was apparently flirting the whole yacht trip (Whitney’s husband gave him that 411), but Britani reminds Jared that they are on a break. She feels confused/frustrated by his actions, especially since she had the “most traumatic experience” of her life and he comes in with this.
Jared claims that Britani “runs” every five seconds and that he is looking for someone stable. Jared wonders how the Jared-less 30 day fast is going for Britani and he does not run after her as she walks away from him. She cries that she is tired of the mind games, leaving Jared in the woods.
Eventually, he makes his way up to her and calls Britani’s question of “what are we doing” unfair. So much for a straight answer about their relationship. Jared tells Britani in order to be her boyfriend, she needs to be stable for more than five minutes. Ouch.
Todd is finally home and the tension in the house is thick. Bronwyn gives herself a bit of pep talk before confronting Todd about the issues at hand. She refuses to play happy family with Todd and she is uncomfortable with what was said about him on Twitter. She shares how she feels not enough because in the past, Todd kept something from her which made her spiral.
Bronwyn explains she is open to whatever would make Todd happy and offers up an arrangement in order to evolve with him. After 11 years of marriage, Todd reminds Bronwyn that they’ve always been able to talk through issues. He admits he was wrong and he is happy being with Bronwyn.
She wants Todd to figure out what works for his sex life and admits that she talked about their sex life with Whitney. Todd is furious and wonders why she would share that with a group of untrustworthy friends. Bronwyn feels like she can’t even confide in her friends, but Todd is more focused on moving forward and brushing this under the rug.
Mary is thrilled to be back in her church to speak to the congregation. However, she is sad that Robert Jr. won’t be there to witness it all, as he was high and she wants to protect him. Mary explains that today was not a good day for him.
Whitney is shocked that she is invited back to Mary’s church, but is so excited to see Mary in her element. Heather is unsure if Lisa and Meredith will show and Whitney states that if they walk into church it will be like “two whores burning.”
Much to everyone’s shock, Lisa and Meredith roll up together. Meredith is in her boot due to a sprained toe (and no, it’s not from kicking Britani). Meredith explains that she has been Mary’s biggest supporter for years, so despite all the drama, she is there for Mary. Period.
During the mass, there is dancing, there is singing, and there is Mary, with her gold mic and bedazzled bible. She gets emotional during her sermon and Angie looks on like the proud friend that she is. Mary believes that she is a messenger for God and she explains how she was not even invited to her mother’s funeral.
As Mary speaks, many of Bronwyn’s worries become alleviated. Mary calls out the ladies, one by one, reminding them that God will give whatever each woman needs during this season in life. Mary is magical during this spiritual experience, but of course Lisa is dying of heat stroke. Pretty on brand. In the end, Mary hopes that this group received peace and hope…
