The pandemic has altered life, changed it in ways that we could have never imagined. The world was locked down and at one point, that seemed to be the only way to keep people safe from getting infected. The first month may have been challenging but most people got through it possibly thinking that it would be over soon but with time, people grew out of the fear and decided to take some reckless decisions. Some were made by the cast members of 'Southern Charm' too.

Craig Conover was disturbed that he would now have to make calls out of the comfort of his home. He seemed convinced that the virus has not arrived in Charleston and that it isn't as serious as people are making it out to be. However, his colleague pointed out that it was getting dangerous every day.

Meanwhile, Austen Kroll met with his family at a restaurant, where except for the server, everyone was without a mask. Shep Rose too got the fans' attention by saying that he used to be a pro at hygiene and would take care to see that he wasn't sanitizing and not touching surfaces but now he doesn't bother much.

Meanwhile, fans are disappointed that the cast was being "irresponsible" amid the pandemic. "Craig’s business partner having to explain that this is serious and global pandemic. why doesn’t this surprise me! @BravoTV #SouthernCharm," a fan commented, while another shared: "Omg Craig are you serious? Very disappointed on you for not taking this pandemic seriously, I’m hopeful by now you think differently. #SouthernCharm."



 



 

"I'm sorry as much as I love #southerncharm this episode is so disturbing to see so many people not wearing mask and not being safe," a user posted, while another tweeted: "i love austen’s family and how supportive yet direct and honest they are with him. but i’m horrified by the server being the only person wearing a mask in this scene. #southerncharm." "The footage of Craig and other cast members not quarantining makes me so angry. And now Shep talking about how he doesn’t care anymore about the pandemic. Why are you giving these irresponsible people a platform, Bravo? #SouthernCharm," a viewer expressed.
