Austen Kroll has been an open book when it comes to his love life on Southern Charm, but he kept his cards close at the start of his relationship with Audrey Pratt.
Kroll first teased their budding romance in January 2024. He shared a glimpse of Pratt, who resides in North Carolina, during a group trip to Mexico the following month, but he didn’t publicly talk about her until months later.
The reality star exclusively told Us Weekly in December 2024 that after one year together he learned that not all relationships have to be “tumultuous and hard.” (Kroll’s ups and downs with ex Madison LeCroy included getting caught on camera cheating before they split in December 2020.)
“Whether she knows it or not, [she] is a big part of my happiness and my inner peace,” Kroll gushed to Us, calling Pratt “very, very chill.”
Pratt’s calm demeanor has made her fit in easily with their Southern Charm group. “I have nothing but good things to say about her,” LeCroy exclusively told Us in December 2024, giving Kroll’s new partner her stamp of approval.

Kroll confirmed to Us in December 2024 that he and Pratt “began to date at the end of December” one year prior. He teased that he would tell fans “yes” to dating someone during “cuffing season,” a.k.a. the cold winter months, since that’s when he first pursued Pratt.

Pratt made her Southern Charm debut during season 10, first over the phone before joining Kroll in Charleston for a group event. Kroll exclusively told Us that same month that Pratt would be popping up in a few episodes of the season, which began filming in March 2024.
When it comes to their future, Kroll said he’s not quite ready to put a ring on it. “It’s an interesting thing, but we’re certainly not rushing anything and we’re just enjoying [it],” he teased to Us. “She lives in Charlotte, [North Carolina], so she doesn’t live in Charleston, [South Carolina]. And that’s fine. It’s like a quick little drive. It’s nice.”
He added that calling someone his “girlfriend” was a “shock to even say,” so they’re taking things slow. Kroll, however, told Us that he couldn’t “ignore” his “feeling” about their connection from the moment they met.
