Since Southern Charm premiered on Bravo ten(!) seasons ago, Patricia Altschul has been right there in the middle of the action from Day 1, watching as the cast navigates messy relationships, wild parties, and emotional highs and lows. However, in all those years, Patricia has never, we repeat never, appeared at an often drama-filled Southern Charm reunion. That is, until now.
Patricia made her first-ever reunion appearance during Part 2 of the Southern Charm Season 10 sit-down and, let's just say, it was both memorable and sassy. After sitting down with the cast on the couches, Patricia joked to reunion host Andy Cohen that this reunion is her "first and last."
Patricia also had an opinion about the elaborate set, as it was "inspired" by her famed Charleston home. "I think whoever did this was a genius," she shared during the episode. "I mean, there's a painting of my house. There are fake antiques."
When speaking to The Daily Dish in early March, Patricia kept her comments about the reunion, which had filmed in NYC in February, short but sweet, simply revealing, "I’m looking forward to the reunion."
She also noted that she had "been busy here watching episodes." "I wish I had something more exciting to tell you," she added.
She later shed more light on the reunion appearance on Instagram, writing, "I made a 10-minute reunion appearance to celebrate 10 years of Southern Charm. Jewelry by Harry Winston ($$$)… Shoes à la Amazon ($32 and so comfortable)."
Patricia Altschul reacts to Madison LeCroy's pregnancy news
During the reunion, Madison LeCroy confirmed her pregnancy as she's currently expecting her first child with husband Brett Randle. During the reunion taping, she surprised her castmates with the happy news about her growing family. When speaking to The Daily Dish in March, Patricia shared her joy for her longtime friend's new chapter.
"No, I was thrilled," Patricia said. "She’s beautiful, and she’s thrilled, and I’m thrilled for her. And it’s a baby girl -- in fact, we’re talking about a [baby] shower."
