Season 5 of Southern Charm is slowly coming to an end and the cast members are reportedly making their way to New York to film the reunion special.
Andy Cohen just came back from a trip and he told fans that he watched the entire season on the plane coming back so he could prepare himself for the reunion special. It seems like the cast members are a bit split on Thomas Ravenel’s new girlfriend, Ashley Jacobs, especially since she seems to be very demanding, needy and opinionated.
According to Reality Blurb, it sounds like Ashley Jacobs still wanted to film the reunion special even though Thomas Ravenel reportedly wasn’t invited. The reunion hasn’t filmed just yet, but it sounds like Bravo didn’t invite Thomas to participate.
Given women have stepped forward, accusing him of sexual assault, it sounds like Bravo wanted to cut him out of the reunion. Even though Thomas won’t be there, Ashley reportedly still wanted to film and got a small lump sum for the time she will spend filming the Southern Charm reunion.
Thomas: I'm not invited to be on the reunion and probably won't be on the show next season.

Sources previously told Radar Online that Ashley appears to be loyal to Thomas. She didn’t want to film the reunion special in the beginning but then chose to do it anyways.
She has stayed loyal to him despite two accusations of sexual assault. It’s possible she will address this on the Southern Charm reunion, possibly accusing the women of doing it for attention.
Ashley herself has been accused of only being with Thomas Ravenel for the attention and fame he gets from being on Southern Charm. But if Thomas has really been left out of the reunion special as many people assume, it could mean that he won’t return next year. If that’s the case, then Ashley could also be done with the show. This decision could be a true test of their love.
What do you think about Thomas and Ashley possibly being done with Southern Charm after the 2018 reunion special?
