During his chat with the publication, Joe teased that it was an "instantaneous connection" between him and Danielle. "Before we even talked, we were making eye contact from across the room and you could tell there was some tension there," he explained. "We were drawn to each other."

Joe had not formally introduced himself to the brunette beauty when they initially caught each other's gaze. However, Joe took advantage of an opportunity during a BravoCon panel to express his interest in getting to know Danielle. Fortunately, luck was on his side as the two met the day after his admission. "We had an amazing time," Joe told PEOPLE.

The Southern Hospitality cast member also revealed that Danielle will visit him soon in Charleston, and he couldn't be more excited. "She'll get to see me in my natural habitat," he explained. "And I'll get to show her around Charleston, which I love... So showing someone I like is going to be extra special."

What's next for Joe Bradley? 

Joe is gearing up to make his return onscreen for the premiere of Southern Hospitality Season 2. The show will follow Southern Charm's Leva Bonaparte and her larger-than-life staff at Republic Garden & Lounge, where they take you inside the sprawling party scene of The Holy City.
