Shep Rose – the star of Southern Charm – is once again making headlines after complaining that his $3.5 million penthouse in Isle of Palms, South Carolina, which spans 1,950 square feet, is "too small" for his needs. This statement became even more intriguing after he revealed that Sienna Evans – his ex-girlfriend and former Miss World Bahamas – had allegedly requested a $10 million mansion before they broke up.
So, does Shep genuinely feel cramped in his luxurious new home, or is this just his way of subtly throwing shade at Sienna after their split?
Not long before their breakup, Shep Rose and Sienna Evans reportedly had discussions about moving in together. According to Shep, Sienna had expressed her desire for a larger home, specifically a mansion worth around $10 million. This left Shep shocked, as he felt it was an excessive request, especially since their relationship had not yet reached a stage of full commitment.
However, their relationship ultimately came to an end.
Shortly after, Shep decided to purchase a $3.5 million penthouse spanning 1,950 square feet (approximately 181 square meters). For most people, this would be considered an incredibly spacious and luxurious home. But for Shep, it seems even this high-end beachfront property is not quite enough.
Shep refers to his new penthouse as a "Beach Bungalow" – an ideal retreat by the ocean. However, in a recent conversation, he admitted that he was not entirely satisfied with the space.
"Honestly, it’s a bit smaller than I expected," Shep shared. "I prefer a little more room, but it’s still a great place."
His comment immediately sparked discussions online. Some people believe Shep is exaggerating, considering that a multi-million-dollar penthouse in an exclusive area like Isle of Palms is far from "small." Others speculate that Shep may be indirectly calling out Sienna and her previous demand for a $10 million estate, subtly reminding everyone of their differences in expectations.
Given his lifestyle, Shep Rose is often traveling, attending social events, and enjoying a free-spirited way of life. This raises the question: Does he actually need a bigger home?
In the past, Shep never seemed particularly concerned with living in overly lavish homes. Throughout previous seasons of Southern Charm, he was content with comfortable yet modest residences. The fact that he suddenly finds 1,950 square feet "too small" has led many to wonder whether he is genuinely dissatisfied or just making a point.
While much attention is on Shep, some fans have turned their focus to Sienna Evans’ alleged demand for a $10 million home.
Although she is a beauty queen and has her own career, some believe her request was unrealistic considering the status of their relationship. If they were not yet fully committed, expecting a mansion of that scale might have been too much, too soon. This has fueled speculation that financial expectations and lifestyle differences may have contributed to their breakup.
In the end, does Shep Rose genuinely feel cramped in his penthouse, or is this just his way of taking a subtle dig at Sienna Evans?
Whatever the case, one thing is clear: Shep’s life post-breakup remains a hot topic, and he continues to make waves with his statements about his living space and his past relationship.
So, will Shep eventually upgrade to a $10 million mansion, or will he realize that size doesn’t matter as much as finding the right person to share it with? Only time will tell!
