How much are the Southern Charmers worth?
When Southern Charm first appeared on our TV screens, we wondered what the heck the cast did to earn their money (spoiler: the answer was mostly “inherited it”). Now the answer’s more clear – they’re TV stars. But, there are some details about their financial lives that would surprise you. Find out how much they're actually worth.

Craig Conover net worth: $400,000
So much has changed with Craig in the course of a year — his net worth has increased a whopping $200,000 since the last writing of this article. His pillow line ‘Sewing Down South’ has taken off, so much so that apparently he makes more with his line than he would have as an attorney. It seems his business was a wise choice considering he passed the bar but never actually practiced law. Now he’s on HSN and throws ‘Pillow Parties’ where he signs pillows from fans who buy from his line of home goods.

Naomie Olindo net worth: $500,000
Though it’s unclear what Naomie currently does for a living, she does have experience in real estate as she was once listed as an agent on a real estate firm’s website. As we saw in season five, her family is involved in the restaurant business, both in France and now in Charleston. Though she’s not listed as an owner, she has been heavily involved in the opening of the restaurant. Naomie has a fashion line called L’ABEYE (french for ‘honey bee’), which she launched through the entrepreneurial spirit she says she got from her father. She’s also mentioned plans to venture into the alcohol industry which has been slowed by the pandemic.

Kathryn Dennis net worth: $800,000
Kathryn has one of the highest net worths of the Southern Charm cast, which might make you scratch your head. We haven't seen Kathryn do much in the realm of work on the show. According to Celebrity Net Worth, Kathryn’s worth $800,000. This one seems a touch high, considering Kathryn’s sole income pre-SC was some small market modelling. And last year she was spotted working at a local department store in Charleston. Would she be doing that if she had more than half a million to her name? Regardless, she was fired in May 2020 for allegedly making racist comments toward a woman named Mika Gadsden.
The only other explanation is her social media brand deals and her Southern Charm salary — each cast member is said to make around $25,000 per episode.

Austen Kroll net worth: $1 million
Information on Austen Kroll’s net worth seems to be scarce, but from what is known, it doesn’t seem he’s on the same financial footing as his castmates. In 2014, he was a Territory Sales Manager for Red Hare Brewing Company which has a national average salary of $64 000. In season five, Austen was “fun-employed,” immersing himself in beer tasting and forging ahead with a craft beer of his own. Kroll was most likely added to the cast because he comes from an affluent southern family — his dad used to work in the FBI and his mom was in software sales. It’s known that his parents own a second home off the coast of Charleston, so perhaps his wealth is inherited. Who knows — he might hit it big with his new craft beer!

Madison LeCroy net worth: $1.25 million
From the show, Madison seems like quite the go-getter. She’s one of the most sought-after hair stylists in Charleston, and shows no signs of stopping. Her motivation seems to be her son Hudson who she raises as a single mother. Her potential and work ethic is why Patricia Altushul has taken her under her wing and is pushing her towards a wealthy suitor.

Cameran Eubanks net worth: $1.5 million
Cameran’s one of the few Charmers to have held down a regular job, working as a real estate agent. But selling homes likely isn’t what stacked up the half million dollars Celebrity Net Worth says she’s got to her name. Cameran was in the entertainment business long before SC. She appeared on The Real World and Real World/Road Rules Challenges and hosted Girls Gone Wild segments. Let's not forget that she married a doctor.

Chelsea Meissner net worth: $1.5 million
Before Southern Charm, Chelsea appeared on Survivor. But that’s not the kind of TV money that puts you over a million dollars in the bank. Chelsea’s net worth is $1.5 million according to What Net Worth. That cash comes via her work in medical sales and working as a hairstylist, plus her gigs and appearances associated with Survivor, and now Southern Charm.

John Pringle net worth: $1.5 million
Pringle comes from a multi-generational family commodity business, which explains why he went that route after graduating college. According to his LinkedIn, Pringle is still involved with the stock market where he still works today as an energy trader. However, it seems his true love is music - he’s been sharing his music since 2004 and even released a few albums.

Whitney Sudler-Smith net worth: $2 million
Whitney’s no longer a main cast member on SC, but he IS the creator of the show and served as an executive producer until 2016. He was also involved behind the scenes on Southern Charm: New Orleans. But, like Thomas, Whitney’s $2 million net worth, per Celebrity Net Worth, is legacy cash – his mom Patricia was married to a Wall Street mogul, Arthur Altschul.

Shep Rose net worth: $4 million
Celebrity Net Worth pegs Shep’s net worth at $4 million — impressive for a playboy who supposedly doesn't have his life together. Shep comes from family money like Thomas, so it stands to reason he’s worth more than Craig. He’s never really WORKED from what we’ve seen, but he’s invested in bars and real estate, so our bet is he’s got more than that in the bank… or at least coming his way via inheritance eventually.

Leva Boneparte: $3 million
Leva is one part of Charleston’s nightlife power couple. She and her husband Lamar Bonaparte own several high-end restaurants, bars and lounges in the city including Republic Garden & Lounge and Bourbon and Bubbles. The couple also own Republic Development Management Group which aims to create global destinations for high-end nightlife and culinary experiences. Their hustle and business savvy put them higher up on this list.

Thomas Ravenel net worth: $6 million
Thomas has been without a doubt the richest main cast member on Southern Charm. He’s not THE richest (we’ll get to who is in a bit…), but he’s got legacy money as the scion of one of oldest families of Charleston, SC. His net worth is somewhere in the realm of $6 million. Some of that money comes from the commercial real estate company he founded pre-Southern Charm, and a hefty chunk comes from the show, but at the end of the day Thomas is rich because he’s a Ravenel.
A true picture of his financials were revealed during the custody battle with Kathryn Dennis. His gross monthly income sits around $150,000 a month which consists of his rental and business profits, as well as $2500 from “his job.” It was also discovered that he holds about $1.2 million in stocks.

Patricia Altschul net worth: $20 million
The richest Charmer of them all? None other than Whitney’s mom, Patricia Altschul. Celebrity Net Worth estimates her fortune at $20 million. Patricia’s late husband Arthur was a partner at Goldman Sachs Group and for years the couple were New York City socialites. When she moved down to Charleston, she picked up her historic home for a whopping $4.8 million.
But we can’t discount Patricia’s business savvy. In October 2020, she launched her home decor line (which you can find on HSN), and a few years earlier published her book The Art of Southern Charm.
