Now this is a crossover we didn’t know we needed — but absolutely adore.
In a moment that sent the Bravo-verse and feel-good reality fans into a full-on frenzy, stars from Southern Charm were spotted hanging out with cast members from Love on the Spectrum — and yes, social media is melting down in the best way possible.
📸 The now-viral photo shows Southern Charm heartthrobs Craig Conover and Austen Kroll smiling alongside Tanner Smith (Love on the Spectrum US) and everyone’s favorite mentor, dating coach Jodi Rodgers’ right-hand man.
“Hopefully Tanner gave them dating advice,” one fan joked on Twitter.
“Because Lord knows Craig and Austen could use it.”
Shots fired — but also, facts.
🍸 Bravo Bros Meet the Kings of Candid Conversations
Snapped inside what appears to be a swanky cocktail bar (because of course), the group looked relaxed, happy, and possibly mid-crossover collab?
Craig rocked his signature laid-back charm in neutral tones, while Austen kept it sporty in a white tee and baseball cap. But all eyes were on Tanner, whose signature smile and upbeat energy lit up the room — and the photo.
“Tanner outshining the Bravo boys without even trying,” one comment read. “We love to see it.”
💬 Dating Advice, Anyone?
Fans were quick to pick up on the irony — and potential iconic synergy — of this mash-up:
“Craig and Austen have been fumbling the bag with women for YEARS,” one TikTok user said. “Meanwhile, Tanner is out here giving TED Talks on emotional intelligence.”
Others begged Bravo to consider a crossover special:
“Imagine a Southern Charm x Love on the Spectrum dating bootcamp hosted by Tanner. I’d watch that over any Bachelor spin-off.”
🧠 Wholesome Meets Hot Mess
Let’s be honest: Love on the Spectrum has become beloved for its wholesome, honest, and heartwarming approach to dating — while Southern Charm is known for its boozy brunches, love triangles, and emotional chaos.
So seeing these worlds collide?
It’s giving growth. It’s giving emotional maturity. It’s giving... please let this be a thing.
👀 What Were They Filming?
Sources close to production are staying tight-lipped, but rumors are swirling that this surprise meet-up may be part of an upcoming Bravo digital crossover or a charity event centered around inclusivity and community.
“All I’m saying is: if Tanner helps Austen figure out how to have one functional relationship, he deserves an Emmy,” one fan tweeted.
Final Thoughts?
This unexpected bromance has already stolen our hearts — and possibly saved the Southern Charm boys from another season of romantic disaster.
Tanner, if you’re reading this: please stay. Charleston needs you. 🐾💘
