It seems a lot has changed between exes Madison LeCroy and Austen Kroll. The former confirmed this during a November 7 Amazon Live stream, after she was asked which of castmates she’d invite to a hypothetical Friendsgiving. Madison insisted she would gladly invite all of her fellow Southern Charm-ers… except for one.
“You’ll figure out why later on, but everybody else will be more than welcome because they’re actually friends,” she said. “So, there’s that. I’m too old to be sitting here trying to pretend. Yeah, nobody has time for that.”

Madison's answer prompted an unsurprising follow-up: “You’d even invite Austen to the Friendsgiving?” another fan asked.
“Yes. I mean, y’all, if I had told you guys that we were friends, you wouldn’t believe me, but you’ll see it on the show,” she said, alluding to Southern Charm Season 10. “I think after five years of time, it’s like you just gotta grow up. We’re adults, we work together, so yeah.”
Madison reflects on her relationship with Austen
The two began dating ahead of Southern Charm Season 6, which also marked Madison’s Bravo debut. They had an on-again, off-again romance until 2020 when Madison confirmed they were done for good. She spoke about the split during a 2021 sitdown with BravoTV.com, explaining why it was so difficult to maintain the relationship while in the public eye.
“I would say Austen and I, you know, the relationship was actually pretty good in the beginning. Especially before we put it on international television,” she said in reference to their publicized relationship issues. “That, I think, changed a lot of things for us. We had no privacy. Any fights, any drama, everybody knew about it.”
Madison shares updates on her family life
A year after her breakup with Austen, Madison was introduced to Brett Randle, a chief firefighter who worked on the West Coast. The couple got engaged in October of 2021 and tied the knot a little over a year later.
The two now live in a beautiful Charleston home with Madison’s young son, Hudson, from a previous relationship. The Southern Charm-er recently celebrated her boy’s 12th birthday with a heartwarming tribute shared on Instagram.
“My sweet boy, Hudson, you are my greatest accomplishment and the best thing that’s ever happened to me,” she wrote in a November 3 Reel. “Being your mother has been the most fulfilling part of my life, and I honestly can’t remember what life was like before you. It just feels like everything got brighter and more exciting the moment you arrived…
“I’m beyond proud of you, and I can’t wait to see all the amazing things you’re going to do in the years ahead,” she continued. “This year is extra special because it’s your last before you officially become a teenager. Yikes—make it stop! But I need to stop myself here because you know me… I’m already crying just writing this.”
Southern Charm Season 10 will premiere at 9 p.m. ET/PT, on December 5 on Bravo.
