\"Patricia<\/p>\n

In typical\u00a0Patricia Altschul<\/strong>\u00a0fashion, she did not hold back when it came to discussing\u00a0Southern Charm<\/em>\u00a0in her newly released memoir,\u00a0Eat, Drink and Remarry<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\u201cI can\u2019t imagine that that many people are so passionate about Bravo, but I appreciate the generosity and the appreciation of the fans,\u201d Altschul, 84, told\u00a0<\/p>\n

And so,\u00a0Southern Charm<\/em>\u00a0was born. The show premiered on Bravo in March 2014, becoming an instant hit and kicking off a cultural phenomenon \u2014 including the term \u201cPeter Pan Syndrome,\u201d a way to describe men who refuse to grow up and settle down.)<\/p>\n

Sudler-Smith first told his mom that after \u201cfive minutes\u201d they would be done filming the show in her historic home. \u201cWe know how that went,\u201d she quipped. \u201cWe\u2019re filming our tenth season as I write.\u201d<\/p>\n

Keep scrolling for Altschul\u2019s biggest revelations about\u00a0Southern Charm<\/em>\u00a0in her new memoir:<\/p>\n

Altschul recalled her first time filming for the show to be \u201cimpromptu\u2026 and reluctant.\u201d At the time, she just wanted \u201cthe crew out of the house as quickly as possible.\u201d Initially, Altschul decided to say \u201cwhatever popped into my head\u201d and, well, nothing has changed since.<\/p>\n

\u201cGradually, I became a regular on\u00a0Southern Charm<\/em>\u00a0with a defined role,\u201d she wrote, noting that Sudler-Smith\u2019s dream for the show came true.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe guys and the girls channeled\u00a0Animal House<\/p>\n

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

<\/em>\u00a0with their sexcapades, feuds, and over-the-top behavior, and I paid homage to\u00a0Downton Abbey<\/em>\u00a0by playing the Dowager Countess of Charleston,\u201d she wrote. \u201cAll I had to do was be myself.\u201d<\/p>\n

Altschul joked that she needs a\u201ca Venn diagram to chart\u00a0Southern Charm<\/em>\u2018s various flirtations,\u00a0one-night stands, love affairs, and breakups\u201d through the years.<\/p>\n

\u201cI find the constant recycling a mystery, especially when the motivation for hooking up with a friend\u2019s current or ex-partner is revenge,\u201d she added. \u201cWe didn\u2019t have revenge sex in my day \u2014 we had revenge marriage, meaning if you want to get back at a caddish boyfriend, find someone better and marry them. Which makes much more of an impact.\u201d<\/p>\n

Altschul wrote that \u201cevery season\u201d she finds herself asking \u201cwhy this group insists on fishing in the same pond and sleeping with each other.\u201d She compared the \u201cincestuous\u201d nature of the show to\u00a0<\/p>\n

Even when the show is not filming, Rose, Conover and Austen Kroll are \u201cfixtures\u201d at Altschul\u2019s home.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey come over to have a beer and hang out with Whitney. I\u2019m like the den mother at a halfway house,\u201d she joked. \u201cMy mother always said you are the company you keep, so it looks like I\u2019m a B-list f***boy!\u201d<\/p>\n

Every year, she hopes their \u201cjuvenile behavior\u201d will eventually subside, but the annual gentleman\u2019s dinner is proof that her hopes have not yet been realized.<\/p>\n

\u201cI fall into the same trap every time,\u201d she wrote. \u201cI plan an impressive meal, set a beautiful table, and try to elevate the conversation, imagining this will be the night when boys become men, but they don\u2019t.\u201d<\/p>\n

Altschul was friends with LeCroy before the show started \u2014 for 18 years and counting.<\/p>\n

\u201cI always admired her for her work ethic, talent, and great outlook and watched her come up through the ranks, from doing simple blowouts to coloring and cuts,\u201d she wrote. \u201cThen, she became the best hairstylist in Charleston.\u201d<\/p>\n

Altschul hinted at a possible podcast (they were tossing around the title \u201cEat, Drink and Remarry\u201d) between her and LeCroy in the book \u2014 a possibility that\u2019s still on the table.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe trouble is, we\u2019re both so busy that it\u2019s hard to find a time when we can even get together,\u201d Altschul told\u00a0Us<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Every season, Altschul skips out on the\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cIf I have something to say, I say it during filming \u2014 whatever pops into my head at the time. And I\u2019m truthful,\u201d she explained. \u201cI don\u2019t feel the need to be cross-examined after the fact. Quite frankly, I think reunions are beneath me, and my absence says more than my presence ever would.\u201d<\/p>\n

Is love in the air?!<\/p>\n

On Season 2 of \u201cThe Golden Bachelor,\u201d fans followed each week as Mel Owens looked for love.\u00a0<\/p>\n

After an unexpected journey, Mel finally found his happily ever after and this week we got to see him hand out his final golden rose.<\/p>\n

On their last week in Antigua, Mel shared a declaration of love with Peg and gave her a ring as a symbol of his commitment.\u00a0<\/p>\n

After a heartbreaking goodbye from Cindy, Mel finally told Peg that she was the one for him.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Bachelor Nation<\/p>\n

While looking out at the beautiful ocean and holding Peg\u2019s hands, Mel said, \u201cOn this journey, I reflect on our journey and I\u2019ve learned a lot of things. Listening and loving. I listen to you talk about your family and what it means to you and all the sacrifices that you made. I know you would protect them at any cost. I want to invite your family into my family. I trusted you and you trusted me. And you told me you had confidence in me \u2014 that I\u2019d make the right choice. And here you are.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

As the Golden Bachelor pulled a ring box out of his pocket, he shared, \u201cI have something. I have a ring, and this represents our commitment to love. To give us time to figure out together what our future holds. What do you think?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Bachelor Nation<\/p>\n

Peg excitedly replied, \u201cI agree! I think it would be absolutely wonderful, we\u2019re just completely on the same page with that.\u201d<\/p>\n

As Mel placed the stunning Neil Lane ring on Peg\u2019s finger, she expressed, \u201cIt\u2019s beautiful! Wow, that is absolutely beautiful!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

After declaring their commitment for one another, the happy couple shared they’ve found the perfect person and Peg exclaimed, \u201cA toast to the final golden rose! Definitely a match, that\u2019s for dang sure. I\u2019m not for everybody, he\u2019s not for everybody, but we\u2019re definitely for each other. It\u2019s so true.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

We couldn\u2019t be happier for these two as they enter this exciting next chapter of their lives together. Congrats to Mel and Peg!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
