Salley and Craig both also want the typical Southern life in their futures, with a white picket fence, kids, and marriage. Much like Craig, Salley is a homebody. After work, she loves nothing more than staying at home and cuddling with her dog, Boots. Not only do their current lifestyles align, but what they want in the future does too.

Salley went on to reveal that her ex-fiancé, Avery Bucholz, “definitely reached out when he found out I was on the show.” She recalled Avery being “worried that my whole story line was going to be about him” after joining Southern Charm for season 10, which premiered in December 2024.

“There’s no romance between me and Craig. We’re just really good friends,” Carson — who joined Southern Charm in Season 10 — said when she stopped by our studio this week. “There were two other people at dinner with us. But we had a great night, and I’m really enjoying getting to know him better.”
