A lot can change within a year. Just ask Shep Rose.
At the beginning of Southern Charm Season 10, Shep was in the early stages of his “situationship” with former pageant queen Sienna Evans. Although the Charleston bachelor said he was “so enthralled” with Sienna, his friends began questioning if the feelings were mutual, as Sienna seemed emotionally distant during the cast’s trip to her hometown of Nassau, Bahamas.

Shep began teasing a real estate move in 2023, when he was considering buying another property outside of South Carolina.
“In Montana, Wyoming. Colorado. I did a tour of out West,” he told BravoTV.com. “I ended up having a hell of a lot of fun… seeing some real estate, meeting some cool people. But the interest rates, the mortgage rates, it’s just. Crazy. It’s not the right time. Not now. But I do love out West. I do love Montana, and fishing and hunting and stuff.”
Shep Rose reveals he listed his Charleston beach house
Shep recently renovated his Isle of Palms beach house and listed the property for rent. He spoke about the decision in an April chat with the Post and Courier, saying his family had pushed him to find a new place that wasn’t so “beach bungalow.” At the time of the interview, Shep had put down an offer on a Sullivan’s Island home, but it’s unclear if he secured the deal.
“It’ll be nice to have two properties,” he told the outlet. “I feel like I’m all grown up at age 45.”

“We all kind of have the dirt on each other, so that’s always lurking,” he told the outlet. “We talk about that this season, me, Craig, and Austen, and Whitney [Sudler-Smith], too. It’s like, ‘Guys, we have to stop playing Gotcha so much.’ Sometimes we can weaponize information, and we’re all guilty of it.”
