'Southern Charm' star Madison LeCroy

Southern Charm star Madison LeCroy has been taking fans along for every part of the journey of welcoming a baby girl with her husband, Brett Randle. On the Bravo show's season 10 reunion stage, viewers reveled in the way she stunned her castmates by debuting her bump. From there, LeCroy has shared major milestones on Amazon Live, including a gender reveal and the moments after her water broke.

Teddi, named after LeCroy’s late father, arrived on June 29, 2025, officially making LeCroy’s 12-year-old son, Hudson, a big brother and Randle a first-time dad. In the midst of it all, LeCroy and her family moved into a new home.

“It’s in the same neighborhood as my old house, so Hudson didn't have to change schools and still has all of his friends,” she shares with Parents. “We just leveled up a little bit and found a house to grow our family in.”

Setting up a Calm and Cozy Nursery

While LeCroy hasn’t been shy about showing off baby Teddi on Instagram, one thing that has been kept under wraps is Teddi’s nursery. The star finally debuted the nursery on Amazon Live on September 10, 2025, and is sharing more details with Parents about what inspired the aesthetic that she created with interior designer Betsey Mosby.

“I wanted the nursery to feel timeless and not just trendy. And I wanted to keep it very southern, sweet, and soft, just like I imagine Teddi growing up,” LeCroy explains. “When you walk into the room, it looks very monochromatic, which I think makes the nursery very calm and cozy, but still a little glam.”

The “glam” comes courtesy of details including drapery, curtains, and a canopy over the bed. LeCroy admits she was so obsessed with the canopy, something that she too wanted since she was a little girl.

Though Teddi has yet to sleep in the nursery (she’s still in a bassinet beside her parents’ bed), LeCroy is ready for the transition and has the perfect reclining chair waiting for them.

“You end up sleeping in your chair in the nursery, majority of the time—at least I did with Hudson," says LeCroy. "So I wanted to make sure we found a recliner that was comfortable for both of us to be able to relax and bond."

Collecting Keepsakes for Her Daughter

Despite several custom touches to Teddi’s nursery, LeCroy says there’s hardly anything passed down from her own childhood. “When you're the third child, you're just dragged, which I mean in the best way possible,” she laughs.

But displayed on a chair in Teddi’s nursery is a baby gown that belonged to LeCroy’s older sister.

“She thought it was for her to wear, but in all reality, it was for one of her baby dolls," shares LeCroy. "I don't know how she thought that her head went through it but we kept it for Teddi."

LeCroy is making an effort to collect and save things for Teddi. “I’ve received very thoughtful gifts for her and I have about four keepsake trunks,” she says. “I just started adding clothes to them too. She’s growing so fast.”

One special token that LeCroy is saving for Teddi is a signature Love bracelet by Cartier. While it may seem extravagant, it was actually her push present from Randle.

“I felt bad asking for it because if you ask me where my priorities are right now, I'm so invested in the home stuff,” LeCroy admits. “But Brett insisted that this was something we could pass down to Teddi when she gets older. Basically, he bought it for Teddi, but I get to wear it for now!”

Parenting With a Supportive Partner

From the moment LeCroy met Randle, a firefighter, she says she felt she "hit the jackpot." Her feelings have only intensified since welcoming their newborn.

“When I see him around Teddi, and obviously the way he has been around my son, it’s made me fall in love with him way more,” she shares.

Randle’s job benefits include paternity leave so he’s been home since Teddi was born.

“I haven't had any nights without him yet, which I will say, that's going to be extremely hard [when he goes back to work],” LeCroy says. “But my mom is just a phone call away and ready to step in as soon as Brett has to leave for a 48-hour shift or whatever comes up.”

It also helps that Randle's "chill and mellow" nature balances out her "high-strung" energy.

“If my ChatGPT got leaked, it would be a lot of questions like, ‘Should I wear a carrier on my chest?' or 'Should I bring the stroller?’” LeCroy says. “But we've come up with a plan and I know that if I start to get anxious with her crying, Brett can take her and handle that.”

Her New Little Travel Companion

Parents' chat with LeCroy takes place the day before Teddi’s first plane ride, just a quick flight from Charleston, South Carolina, to New York City. LeCroy’s busy work schedule means a lot of travel and she plans on taking Teddi along for all the adventures, despite the pre-planning and overthinking it will entail.

Though LeCroy feels working while pregnant is “criminal, because that's when you need all the time off,” managing her career with a newborn has been a smooth transition. Besides filming season 11 of Southern Charm, she’s busy with her luxury sleepwear line, LeCroy, and working on a baby clothing line.

Bringing Teddi along makes work travel all the more exciting. “I'm not going to lie, she's somewhat of a velcro kid and I'm not mad about it,” LeCroy laughs. “She's attached to me and I hope she stays like that forever. I just plan on throwing her on my hip and taking her with me everywhere I go. So we might as well go ahead and get her used to traveling.”

One place we won’t see Teddi? BravoCon in Las Vegas this November. “It’s too many people. Maybe if she was a little bit older,” LeCroy says. Randle will take Teddi to see his parents in California and then LeCroy will meet them there after BravoCon is over. “It'll be my first big solo getaway since having Teddi,” adds LeCroy.

Luckily, she’ll be among many other Bravo stars who have recently had babies too, so LeCroy won’t be lacking in support. “I'm going to go and enjoy it," she says. "Maybe it’ll be moms going wild!"
