Venita Aspen opens up about dating as Southern Charm Season 12 premieres

Key Takeaways

  • Venita Aspen is opening up her private life and dating journey for the first time as Southern Charm Season 12 kicks off.
  • Behavioral analyst Elle Schwartz breaks down the dramatic trailer, including Venita's involvement in a chaotic love triangle featuring Whitner Slagsvol and Allie Newman.
  • The lingering feud between Venita and Salley Carson takes center stage again, with unresolved tension spilling over from Season 11.
  • Elle analyzes Venita's tight bond with Madison LeCroy, her history with newcomer Allie Newman, and how her edit might shift this season.
  • The episode also touches on behind-the-scenes chatter, including the closed Carl Radke chapter and unconfirmed Anthony Mackie rumors from the U.S. Open.

Southern Charm Season 12 kicks off Thursday, and Venita Aspen is walking in with something to say. For the first time, she is opening the door on her love life, telling Bravo she wants viewers to see her dating, trying to fall in love, and looking for the right guy. That openness comes with a little chaos. The trailer puts her right in the middle of a Whitner situation, complete with a shirtless morning photo, a pottery wheel date, and a very confused Allie Newman asking who Whitner actually likes.

Then there is Salley. Their friendship breakdown from Season 11 is still very much alive, with Salley accusing Venita of getting into everyone’s business and Venita calling it projection. Bravo is also teasing a confession from Venita at her own party that may finally explain why these two keep circling each other.

Elle Schwartz, behavioral analyst and host of The Good Edit Unfiltered, breaks down where Venita stands heading into the premiere.


We get into her tight bond with Madison, her long history with newcomer Allie, the Carl Radke chapter that quietly closed, and the unconfirmed Anthony Mackie chatter from the U.S. Open. Plus, why a cast member who has kept her private life close for years would choose this season to open up, and what that edit could look like for her.

If you have been waiting for Venita to get her storyline, this might be the season. Press play and let’s get into it.
