Austen Kroll Plays Coy When Asked If He and Audrey Pratt Are Still Dating

The Southern Charm cast member teased the update more than a year after he and Audrey became official.

It seems there’s been a change to Austen Kroll’s relationship status. The Southern Charm-er suggested this during his surprise appearance on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen, where he fanboyed over the night’s guest, Sarah Jessica Parker.

“[Austen’s] so sweet… He looks so nice, doesn’t he?” Sarah said to Andy Cohen during the July 13 episode. “Is there a partner in his life?”

“Yes. Are you still with Audrey [Pratt]?” Andy asked Austen, who appeared via a video call.

The Southern Charm-er took a few beats before telling the WWHL host to stay tuned. “Oh, Andy,” Austen said, opting not to go into further detail. (Check out more from Austen's appearance in the video at the top of the post.)

Austen Kroll introduces Audrey Pratt to his parents

Austen met Audrey in 2023 while visiting his hometown of Charlotte, North Carolina. The pair became official in December of that year and seemed to be going strong despite living in different states. Fans got a closer look at the romance in Southern Charm Season 10, Episode 6, when Audrey was introduced to Austen’s parents.

The Trop Hop founder reflected on the milestone in an episode confessional, explaining why he believed it was a good time for Audrey to meet his family.

“A big word that I’ve been working on with my therapist is ‘intentionality,’ or the act of being ‘[intentional],’” he said. “And I have intentionally waited four months to bring home Audrey because I don’t want to do this to my parents — introduce them to a girl that I might not be that serious about, and then they’re like, ‘Aw, I liked her.’”Austen — who’s been romantically involved with current and former castmates Madison LeCroy, Olivia Flowers, and Chelsea Meissner — confessed his past relationships were far from drama-free; however, he was convinced that things would be much different with Audrey.

“Let’s just be honest: in the past… I’ve been addicted to the mess,” he said in the confessional. “Audrey’s about as ‘go-with-the-flow’ as it gets. I mean, I’ve given her no reason to not be trusting. I really think it comes from me being an open and transparent person to her. Shocker that that’s what it takes to make a relationship work, but it’s been, like, revelatory.”

Austen Kroll reveals to Sarah Jessica Parker he's a big Sex and the City fan

Before teasing his love life development, Austen took a few minutes to express his love for Sex and the City, the iconic comedy-drama series in which Sarah starred as Carrie Bradshaw. Austen said he had ranked all the main characters based on their number of hookups, and then asked Sarah to reveal which of Carrie’s love interests was “the biggest F boy.” Sarah couldn’t give a specific name, as she couldn’t “recall someone being really awful.”

“OK, well, how about this? Can Shep [Rose] and I just make a cameo at Hot Fellas?” Austen asked, referring to the fictional bakery in the Sex and the City spinoff, And Just Like That… “When the girls are having lunch… you and the girls are like, ‘Yeah, man, the service has really gone downhill from here.”

“100%. Yeah,” Sarah replied.
