Southern Charm 8/4/22

Well what a relief, Marcie decorated the baby’s room. I almost had a coronary a few weeks ago when I saw NOTHING in that room, as far as color or décor. I thought she was further along, that’s why I was freaking, but she has another 1.5 months.

Now this is better !

Love Leva’s pink house!! This is the cutest house I have ever seen! She asks her son why he’s acting like a baby. Maybe because she treats him like a baby?

Little Pink Houses for you and me…

Austen and Kathryn get a pedicure. These girls must hate having to work on guys. Yick.

Naomie calls Craig. All of a sudden she LOVES his pillow making. That’s so funny. She weirdly insists that Craig NEEDS to meet her for coffee to “pick her brain about Kathryn.” Of course this needs to be done in person, and not on the phone like normal people. She is trying to get him back, and liking him now that he’s successful and found out that the grass isn’t necessarily greener on the other side.

Austen calls himself a “blonde guy” to Kathryn, so he’s loving her blonde hair. I much prefer her as a redhead. Guys did you SEE her on WWHL last night? She looked STUNNING! I couldn’t believe it. She’s back to red hair, lost weight. Her hair, makeup, dress, shoes, on point like nobody’s flippin business. And even, acting so calm, mature and normal. Olivia looked great as well, but not AS great as Kathryn. She had to much/many hair extensions in. Aren’t they supposed to look natural? It didn’t look natural.

Sounds like She and Austen are still dating, when they were on WWHL last night. I was kind of surprised. Well, anyway now we see why he wasn’t into Ciara, if he’s so into blondes.

I had a feeling it was something like that. It was just like she wasn’t his type or something. I seemed like he just didn’t have the same attraction to her that she had to him. Which isn’t necessarily anyone’s fault, it’s certainly not that she’s unattractive, she’s hot AF. She’s black fucking Barbie.

It’s the alignment of the planets, and the ocean, and the juju, or whatever. Who knows. Sadly sometimes we are physically attracted to the wrong person. It doesn’t mean that’s the person you’re supposed to be with. Which I’ve always thought was weird. Couldn’t the Gods have made that a little easier for us humans? If the person you were physically attracted to, meant THAT was your person that you were supposed to be with. And everything else just fell into place, and there were no personality clashes, and everything was perfect and we lived happily ever after? Just like the fairy tales?

Okay, as usual I digress. The point is, Austen should have been honest with Ciara, and not jerked her around. (This is from Summer House, if you were not following that show, you’re probably confused)

He tells Kathryn that he hasn’t seen Olivia since her party. It’s bothering him that she is friendly with Madison. Kathryn calls him a “petty little bitch” in her yap. I feel like this is going to be a thing now. They talk about rough play sex. The pedicurists are exchanging glances. Austen tells us about his bedroom capabilities. Not sure we asked for this.

Olivia shares with her mom that Austen is kind of annoying, with the Madison thing. Her mom in her infinite Mom wisdom, points out, and I’m with Mom, that it’s weird that Madison is engaged, she still likes to get at Austen and make him jealous just for fun. “Wonder what her husband to -be thinks about that?” she asks. I would think he would NOT be thrilled. I also think this is a waste of energy talking about it, because I do NOT think this marriage is ever happening. If it does, it will have the shelf life identical to Tom and Lu on RHONY. Their whole relationship has been long distance.

They have never even spent huge wads of time together. They haven’t even been together that long. He is Mormon, Madison is the opposite of Mormon. I do see that being an issue. Also Madison is just a gold digging asshole and no one will ever please her. So there’s that. I hate that they even give this engagement any life at all. It’s like when you were in high school, and there was always that couple that gets engaged. You just kind of laugh, and play along.

Leva has a trainer of some sort at her house and doing yoga type stretching exercises, and she is making a lot of noises, that let’s just say, don’t sound like she is exercising and stretching.

Her son looks a little like “Mom what the hell are you doing?” He’s getting annoyed that he’s not getting attention because his mom dares to do something for herself in his presence. Who the hell does she think she is??

Now he’s just being a pain and whining, and hanging on her. I think the trainer dude is getting annoyed. Boys this age are less able than girls, to entertain themselves while their moms are needing to do something. Something I’ve always noticed. And this is a classic example. She talks about having another child, but worries since he is so high energy. I think another baby is exactly what they need. That way he’s not constantly the center of attention, and will stop being so sort of, don’t hate me, but bratty all the time. They show several scenes of him pulling and tugging on Leva aggressively, and demanding she pay attention to him when she’s trying to do other things. This kid needs dethroned.

Woman you will do what I say, when I say it !

Venita’s mom visits her. She calls her mom’s bag the ‘Mary Poppins’ bag. That’s so cute. She has a treat for Charles. Venita whines about not being invited to Olivia’s party. Wahhh. Girl how old are you, 12? get the fuck over it !!

When ya call random people ‘racist’ they don’t want ya around. Hopefully she learns from this.

Probably not.Bbecause she proceeds to blame her mom for the way she reacted with Olivia. Maybe she didn’t mean it to sound like that. I don’t know. Seems like she more so wants to discuss her father and the issues that he and her mom had. But sure just throw a “it’s all your fault I acted like an asshole” in there. Moms love to hear that. (NOT)

Her dad left her mom and her when she was in high school. Divorces happen, so that sucks, but when he left, he really LEFT. Like she has never even seen him since, if I’m understanding this correctly. I’m trying to follow this, but she keeps blaming her mom for all of her troubles. She’s kind of flaky and all over the place. Her mom is taking this really well. Maybe she knows her daughter makes very little sense and this is the norm.

I’m watching this for the second time now, and I thought I heard this wrong last night. I guess even though her parents didn’t have the best marriage, they never really ‘argued’ per se. So the chick is seriously NOW chastising her mom that since she never “heard them argue” that has affected her in a negative way, and her ability to fight with people? What?? She goes on to say that her friends got to “hear their parent argue and hear them figure it out and I didn’t get that…” I literally don’t know what to say right now. I’m kind of shocked I wasn’t seeing more poking fun on SM today. There was some comments today on Twitter, about her blaming her mom for her fight with Olivia. But this “you didn’t teach me how to argue because you and dad never argued?” I gotta tell my daughter this one.

I really wish you could have screamed at dad so I know how to resolve an argument. This is your fault.

You know, you don’t want to do that typical ‘old people’ thing of ridiculing the generation before you in everything they do. I remember being referred to as spoiled and unappreciative as a teen and young adult. But holy fucking hell. This chick just chastised her mom for not fighting with her dad, and blaming her that she can’t argue effectively.

Get this girl off of this show. There have been housewives and people on these shows that play the victim, and say really dumb shit, but this chick takes the fucking cake. Over her. Her mom should beat her ass right now, and show her what that looks like, and what happens when you disrespect your mom like that, and say really really dumb shit. Is it just that this girl is not very bright? that she thought that was a valid point to bring up to her mom. Doe she hear herself? Her mom is taking this very well. Wow.

A Patricia scene is actually refreshing right now after that train wreck weirdo. Shep visits Whitney and Patricia. Poor Patricia and all of her awful problems, has had to replace Michael. The new guy is doing fine, but of course he’s no Michael. At least Whitney has been relieved of his duties.

Patricia has nothing better to do, and clearly nor do Shep or Whitney. She wants to have a wedding ceremony, of sorts, or an actual wedding, for Little Craig and Peaches. So that’s the wedding we’ve been seeing in the previews, that I was actually wondering about. Thought maybe it was Shep and Taylor (just kidding) or Shep and Whitney. (not kidding)

Patricia’s furniture has GOT to go. Hello? Update please!

1985 called, they want their living room suit back!

She asks Shep if his dog has a tuxedo. As a serious question. She asks Shep about Taylor.

Shep keeps insisting Taylor is not pressuring him to get married, but she kind of is. Her pregnancy plan hasn’t worked yet. And they did have that talk where she asked him, if she would have been when she was ‘late’ would he have stepped up? He didn’t really answer, yes.

Speak of the devil, they go to a scene with Taylor visiting Marcie. She’s in her scrubs. I did read that she’s a dental assistant or something, Refreshing to see a regular girl on here with a regular job, not loafing around living off of her parents trying to come up with a bad business idea.

I love when she’s in her yaps, all she talks about is her ‘timeline’ and how desperate she is to get married. Do we really think that Shep is unaware that she wants to get married and have kids NOW, this badly? I also want to point out how gorgeous she looks in her yaps, and she’s mostly kind of plain on the show when she’s with Shep. Glasses, hair back, no makeup. Hey maybe if she steps it up a little for him, he’ll marry her! She has the whole timeline down. She talks about her clock ticking and she’s only 27. She should be more worried about Shep’s clock. She goes on to talk about how she gets giddy looking at baby clothes, and strollers…. Girl, you are with the wrong dude. But I guess she did figure that out, and they have separated.

She gets cuted up for her confessionals, but not for Shep

Okay so the very much anticipated coffee meet up emergency with Naomie and Craig, because Naomie MUST gossip about Kathryn and Chleb like NOW and IN PERSON !!!

Craig arrives acting really non chalant and cranky. She recounts the convo with she and Chleb, and they flash to it, how he tunes her out, and just the shitty way he was speaking about her. I didn’t get to that recap last week, and I really meant to. What in the what was up with that? It made no sense. Chleb says he hates drama, than does that shit? Then tells Kathryn that Naomie was talking shit on her? What was he doing? Production induced ? Like he must have not cared about Kathryn even at all, to agree to that shit.

Or some might say the whole thing was contrived, down to Kathryn even knowing that he was just playing the whole thing for the cameras, and creating false drama.

Craig is so not into being with Naomie, and making sure that she knows it. He’s picking up Paige, and Naomie wants to do a “fun night out.” I guess with the whole gang? Craig says he can’t be around her, since he’s with Paige. She says “you’re kidding right?”

How is this so unbelievable to her ? It’s pretty normal. She goes on in her yap how this was so innocent and she really just wanted to talk about Kathryn. Whatever. We know she had ulterior motives. She things Craig still has a little thing for her, and he really doesn’t. I thought maybe he did in the first few episodes. But he’s just over it now.

Another awkward meeting. Olivia and Venita. Another coffee place. Awkward small talk.

Back to her parents ruining her life by never arguing. She is going to REALLY try HARD to resolve this argument that she STARTED (seems to me, she knows how to argue??) with Olivia over racism for NO reason. Is this girl just not very bright? That’s not a nice thing to say, and she doesn’t come off as a fucking moron. But does she hear herself? Awkward silence. What is even the reason for this?

Venita should be just starting off with “I’m sorry I’m a fucking dumbass.” Venita thought Olivia’s walking away from the past convos was dismissive of her. Venita apologizes for being a dick. Olivia says she wasn’t being dismissive, but it kind of was. And that’s fine in my opinion, because she needed to be dismissed.

Because she was playing this race card thing, and Olivia wasn’t having it. So she dismissed her. Like girl, bye. You’re not even worth my time.

But she’s still annoyed that Madison got invited and she didn’t (does she realize it wasn’t even that great and she didn’t miss much) so she questions Olivia as to why she invited Madison. Wow. This chick has balls. This really is none of her fucking business. She should have her own party. Then she can invite and not invite whomever she wants. She can leave Olivia out. Olivia probably wouldn’t care.

Didn’t her mom teach her how to accept a non -invite to a party, because she acted like a fucking fool? Mom, again this is YOUR fault. You should have argued more with your ex!! Olivia is over this chick. They’re not even friends, now she questions her about her dating status?

She needs to know if Madison knows what they are doing. What is happening.

They flash to her and Madison discussing Austen and who all he’s dating. I’m starting to think Venita is just a busybody with no life.

Madison and Austen are clearly obsessed with each other in an unhealthy way. What makes it concerning and weird is that she’s jerking this other dude around. Moving on.

Chleb visits his mama. She’s adorable. He starts telling her about talking to Naomie, and how it ticked Kathryn off. They flash to Kathryn bitching at him for speaking to Naomie. She wants him to make a pros and cons list about Kathryn.

Paige is at Craig’s and they have an extra long convo about coffee flavors. He has like 108 different weird kinds of coffee. Mint and apple cider coffee? I’m with Paige. Euww.

She just wants regular coffee. She tells him that and he keeps rattling off weird flavors.

This scene I thought seemed kind of awkward, but I guess she just arrived. and they’re still in early stages. They are still together so, we shall see.

Craig is in another house he’s renovating. Doesn’t it seem like he’s always renovating a house?

Patricia meets with the party planner for this dog wedding weird thing. She talks about Whitney getting married. Okay he’s like 53 or something and has never been married? She should probably just forget about it. And if he does get married, it may or may not be a girl. Which is fine. I just want to prepare Patricia for that. I think he’s really cute, and hope that it is girls he prefers, and kind of hope I run into him some day. Maybe I need to take a trip to South Carolina. Why the hell not? What else am I doing?
