The Southern Charm cast members are frequent customers at Leva Bonaparte's Charleston bars and restaurants, but it turns out that one of them isn't always welcome to stay until closing. 

How to Watch

Watch Southern Charm on Bravo Thursdays at 9/8c and next day on Peacock. Catch up on the Bravo App.

"There's only one person that's been kicked out of your bars," Craig Conover said to Leva on Part 1 of the Southern Charm reunion as he and John Pringle pointed to Shep Rose.

"Shep's been ushered," Leva responded. "He's always polite about leaving. He actually usually has a really long-winded explanation about what went down." Shep explained with a laugh: "It's a great way to leave a bar, you know?"

In addition to Shep's memorable exits, other cast members have had notable moments happen at Leva's establishments, which include Republic, Bourbon N’ Bubbles, MESU, and 1st Place. "The first night that we had any type of romantic connection, love connection, we were at Republic," Kathryn Dennis recalled of a night with an ex, while John admitted, "I kissed Kathryn at Republic."

While Leva shared she has "seen all these guys in the dark," she declared, "I won't spill the tea. That's an industry thing. They are all protected."

During the reunion, Leva also opened up about opening her her premium sports pub, 1st Place, amid the COVID-19 pandemic. "It's decent," she said of how business is going. "I think that we just run a really tight ship and of course Charleston's a little more open than New York."
