“Southern Charm” just wrapped filming on season 11, but if you thought the Charleston drama was cooling off—think again. Salley Carson took to Instagram with a tearful finale photo and a cryptic caption that has Bravo fans convinced something went down at the final event.
Salley Carson Teases Emotional Ending to Season 11: ‘I’m a Survivor’
Salley Carson via InstagramCarson dropped jaws on July 17 when she posted a teary-eyed selfie to her Instagram Stories with the caption: “That’s a wrap 🎬.” She appeared glammed up in a gown and dramatic earrings—clearly dressed for a finale party, but not exactly celebrating.
Adding fuel to the fire, castmate Rodrigo Reyes reposted a behind-the-scenes shot with the caption “Survived SC11.” At the same time, Carson layered in Reba McEntire’s anthem “I’m A Survivor” over her own post. The combination immediately had fans speculating that the season ended with a bang—and not in Carson’s favor.
Throughout season 10, Carson found herself at odds with Taylor Ann Green over their overlapping exes. When Carson tried to confront Green on-camera, the latter opted to brush her off entirely.
“Me and Gaston, we dated for three months,” Carson shared in a past confessional. “Like, he was my person, and I thought I was his. But, like, he was cheating the whole time.”
She also stirred the pot by revealing a past hookup with Shep Rose, telling cameras, “It was like two o’clock in the morning, and then he wouldn’t leave… Shep, like, I’m sorry… you’re just not the kind of guy I see myself with.”
As of April, Green confirmed she would not return to film season 11, but based on Carson’s finale meltdown, the drama didn’t slow down without her.
‘Southern Charm’ Season 11 Started Filming In April With Crossover Talk

The guest list read like a Bravo reunion. Alongside LeCroy were Leva Bonaparte, Madison Simon, Winter House alum Kory Keefer, Austen Kroll, Shep Rose, Molly O’Connell, Rodrigo Reyes, and Salley Carson. Even Whitney Sudler-Smith and Craig Conover made appearances, while Venita Aspen and Rodrigo’s fiancé Tyler Dugas added to the springtime glam.
Carson gave fans a peek behind the scenes with a TikTok of her getting ready with Molly, Rodrigo, and Tyler. Meanwhile, Bravo fan accounts buzzed about Kory’s presence—sparking speculation that he may be joining the “Southern Charm” cast thanks to his longtime friendship with Craig.
“Is Kory from Winter House joining next season of Southern Charm?!” asked Bravo Bravo Bravo Bri on Instagram. “Because why else would he be at Madison’s baby shower?!”
