In a new preview for Season 11, Episode 12 of Southern Charm — set to air Thursday, February 20 — Shep Rose reveals that while he won't be attending the group's fish fry (one of the activities du jour of their already dramatic Bahamas trip), his then-girlfriend, Sienna Evans, would be there.
"So, Sienna's gonna come today. She was like, 'Maybe I'll just do the fish fry,'" he tells his friends in the above preview clip. "And I'm not gonna be there ... "
Immediately, Austen Kroll, Rodrigo Reyes, and Craig Conover are taken aback.
"Wait, what?" says Austen with a goofy grin on his face. "That doesn't make any sense," Rodrigo adds.
From there, Craig begins to explain that Sienna could also just go snorkeling with her beau. Why come to the fish fry instead?
"Why would she not want to hang out with you?" he asks. "If you come to the fish fry, she can come, but if you're not there, I think it's weird. You guys had your talk. Now she wants to hang out with us instead of you because she doesn't wanna hang out with you?"
Instead of agreeing that the situation is strange, Shep tells his friend to not be so "cutthroat" all of a sudden.
"You guys can talk to her and be friends with her. Is that too much to ask?" he adds.
This prompts another question from Craig. Why would Shep want her to be friends with them when she's seemingly pulling back from their relationship altogether?
"Because I think she's a really good person," Shep replies. "Despite the way she makes me feel."
"Look, you know how I am, though. If someone's not making you feel nice, I don't know how to fake be nice to that person," Craig says.
With that, Shep sees that Sienna is calling and goes to answer it.
Why Austen Kroll disagrees with Craig Conover about Shep's girlfriend Sienna
Lucky for Shep, he has one buddy on his side.
"I think it's a good move, Shep," says Austen about the fish fry before launching into his thoughts in a confessional interview.
"I'll tell you what I don't like is somebody kicking somebody when they're down, especially a friend kicking another friend," he adds. "It doesn't sit right with me."
Why Craig Conover thinks Shep is delusional about Sienna
In his own confessional, Craig stands his ground.
"Look, you can continue to enable your delusional friends or tell them how it is," he says. "I'm not pumped that Sienna doesn't like you, but she doesn't like you."
See what happens with the group by tuning into the new episode of Southern Charm on Thursday, February 20. In the meantime, find out if Shep and Sienna are still together today.
