Austen Kroll Reacts to JT's Claims He Treats His Girlfriend Audrey Like "Sh-t"
Austen Kroll and Jarrett "JT" Thomas are reigniting their feud on Southern Charm Season 10.
Austen Kroll and Jarrett “JT” Thomas are once again at odds on Southern Charm — and this time, it involves Austen's new girlfriend, Audrey.
The drama kicks off in the above preview for Season 10, Episode 2 (set to air Thursday, Dec. 12) when Craig Conover tells Austen about his and Shep Rose's recent conversation with JT. As Craig puts it, "Me and Shep went to go hang with JT and he was like, 'Do you think I apologized to Austen enough?' and I said, 'I think it was the right thing to do. And he's like, 'Well, I just think he reflects poorly on me.'"
Like JT himself admits, he recently apologized to Austen over their Season 9 drama. However, it's clear that he still has his issues with the Trop Hop founder, because Craig adds, "We're like 'What?' and then he's like, 'Well, how about his new girlfriend? He's treating her like sh-t too.'"
Austen, however, isn’t even entertaining JT’s claims about his relationship. “Seriously?” he responds. “For him to say I treat her horribly… We're so great and happy that it blows my mind.”
Austen and Audrey may be happy, but it's safe to say he can't say the same about JT.
Austen Kroll and Jarrett "JT" Thomas' feud, explained
Austen and then-newcomer JT spent much of Southern Charm Season 9 clashing, namely over drama stemming from Austen's love triangle with Taylor Ann Green and Olivia Flowers. When it came time for the three-part reunion, JT even declared he was committed to performing an "f-boy exorcism" on Austen.
However, any progress they made didn't last, because Austen shared a not-so-positive update on their friendship in January 2024.
Fast-forward to the Southern Charm Season 10 premiere, and Austen was once again left unimpressed with JT — even when he apologized.
"After my near-death experience, I was thinking about you," JT began, referencing the ATV accident he got in before Season 10. "I think I was a little harsh on you during the exorcism. I'm happy as hell for you that you got a girlfriend."
"So I got something for you," he continued before handing Austen a cane (similar to the one he himself had been using ever since the aforementioned accident). "I'm not fighting with you. This is your cane because you turned over a new leaf."
Austen's response? "It's f-cking weird," he said in a confessional.
Despite issuing an apology, JT expressed his disdain for Austen in a confessional of his own after Leva Bonaparte claimed he was dating other girls even after he met Audrey.
"Hearing that Austen's still doing his dirty ass sh-t in his new relationship, I want to shake him and be like, 'If you want to f-ck around, just be upfront about it,'" JT said. "And with Austen, I feel like honestly is just strictly an impossibility."
See how things shake out between the two as Season 10 of Southern Charm continues.
