Maddi Reese's Relationship Is in Troubled Waters on Southern Hospitality Season 2

In the cold open, which you can check out at the top of this post, the cast discusses Maddi's relationship with Trevor. 

"Trevor cheated on Maddi, and she went back," Bradley says in an interview. "He already publicly embarrassed you once, I don't see why he wouldn't do it again."

Joe, who had a crush on Maddi during Season 1, agrees with Bradley's statement. 

"Once a cheater, always a cheater," Joe says. 

Elsewhere in the First Look, Bradley repeats a rumor he heard from one of his clients.

"One of my clients comes to me and is like they made out at the bar," he tells Maddi. 

In an interview, Maddi gets emotional about her relationship, and she ominously says, "I believed him when he said he would never do it again."

Will Maddi and Trevor make it past the rumors, or is their romance doomed? Tune in to Season 2 to find out.
