JT Thomas explained more about his decision to say goodbye to the United States, and he shared exactly what he meant by \u201cmy country is imploding.\u201d The Southern Charm star also addressed getting hate messages after he left.<\/p>\n

JT exited the show after last season. At the time, he wasn\u2019t in a good place with many in the cast. Earlier this week, he revealed he sold everything and moved to Bali due to the U.S.\u2019s current state.<\/p>\n

In a November 7 Instagram video, JT revealed more of the story.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve retired and retreated \u2026 to Bali because my country\u2019s imploding. Let me qualify when I say my country\u2019s imploding so that people can stop in the comments and [stop] privately messaging me saying \u2026 \u2018The stock market\u2019s at an all-time high \u2026 What\u2019s wrong with you? Everything should be fine with you.\u2019 Well, here, let me qualify for you,\u201d said the star.<\/p>\n

JT continued, \u201cThere\u2019s a bunch of issues, cost of living, et cetera, et cetera. But there\u2019s one real hot button issue that I\u2019m pretty sure I\u2019m not wrong about \u2014 because I agree with the Pope, who\u2019s saying that all humans, including immigrants, should be treated like humans.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cRecently I\u2019ve watched I don\u2019t know how many dozens of videos \u2026 of illegal immigrants getting tackled to the ground and zip-tied,\u201d he continued. \u201cAnd at first it was stunning and shocking, and it still is. But it\u2019s clear to me that now it\u2019s escalated, if that\u2019s even possible, where now I\u2019m seeing videos of actual women \u2026 being pulled out of their place of employment, their apartments, and their vehicles in front of their children by masked men, [then] thrown to the ground [and] zip-tie[d], knees in the back, knees in the stomach.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to JT, in the country he \u201cgrew up in,\u201d it was \u201cinnocent until proven guilty.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd so that\u2019s my major hot button topic, because we\u2019re not treating people like humans anymore. We\u2019re treating certain people inside of our borders like animals. It\u2019s absolutely diabolical, I don\u2019t stand for it,\u201d he said. \u201cSo I\u2019m at the Indian Ocean, I\u2019m in Bali.\u201d<\/p>\n

The new season of Southern Charm premieres Wednesday, November 19, on Bravo.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In a world of over-the-top, staged proposals, Paulie Connell just delivered a masterclass in heartfelt, chaotic, and utterly perfect romance. The “Real Housewives of New Jersey” star Dolores Catania is engaged, and the story of how her longtime love popped the question\u2014in the middle of an Apple Store, with a fake PEOPLE interview as a decoy\u2014is a tale of pure, unscripted magic.<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

The plan was elaborate. Dolores was told she had a PEOPLE interview for a new medication she was promoting. After getting full hair and makeup, the meeting was “canceled.” Seizing the opportunity, Paulie insisted they finally go get her new iPhone. “I kept saying, ‘Just go get it for me! Why do you need me?'” Dolores recalled. But Paulie was relentless, inventing a story about the “only one iPhone Pro Max in the area” being held for her.<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

At the Apple Store in Woodcliff Lake, New Jersey\u2014the very spot where they first met nearly five years ago\u2014Paulie’s nerves began to show. “He was sweating so bad, his T-shirt was soaked, his face was beet red,” Dolores laughed. “He started saying these sweet, beautiful things to me out of nowhere and I was like, ‘Paul, are you okay?'”<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

As an employee led them to the exact table where their love story began, Paulie’s mind was racing. “I was so nervous, my knees where knocking,” he confessed. “I’m like, ‘What are you doing? Don’t start getting sad, you’re meant to be happy!'”<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

While he was trying to deliver a heartfelt speech, Dolores was still completely oblivious, even joking to the employee, “Wouldn’t it be funny if we got engaged here?”<\/span><\/p>\n

Then, he pulled the box from his pocket. That’s when reality hit. “I immediately said yes,” Dolores gushed. The ring, a show-stopping 11-carat centerpiece from John Anthony Jewelers, was a testament to his devotion. “Go big or go home,” Dolores laughed.<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

This wasn’t the first ring Paulie had bought. He revealed he’d purchased a stone years ago, but after getting to know Dolores better, he realized it was the “opposite of what I got.” This new ring, which he’d had for over a year and a half, was perfect.<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

The proposal was a symphony of sentimental details. The date, November 10th, was the same day Dolores had moved in with him four years prior. The celebration dinner was at Rocco’s steakhouse, the site of their very first date. “There’s not a thing this guy didn’t think of,” Dolores said.<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

For years, Bravo fans have relentlessly asked, “When is he going to propose?” Now, they have their answer. In the most unexpected of locations, surrounded by iPhones and unsuspecting shoppers, Dolores Catania’s next chapter has officially begun. And as Paulie laughed, “I’m just glad Dolores won’t have to answer a stupid question anymore.”<\/p>\n
