Did Craig Conover down some kind of truth serum before he shot for the 'Southern Charm' reunion episodes? While that is the only question that has consumed social media, Craig would probably call it being candid and not a "d**k" even when he went after John Pringle's equation with his kids. 

As John began to explain to host Andy Cohen about his situation with his kids, Craig interrupted asking why did he move away from them if they mattered so much to him. Even though he said he was curious to understand why John would move coasts when his work can be done by sitting on a computer, the accusation must have stung John a little. 

Even though he co-parents his two kids as peacefully as he can manage with his ex-wife, it's definitely tough to get it right all the time. "I left to try and make a better life for my children," John said while Madison LeCroy chimed in with her two cents on the matter. "I think sometimes being able to take a break makes you a better parent."



 

Who are John's kids and ex-wife?



 

John was married to San Diego makeup artist Heidi Pringle. Theirs was a short marriage during which they welcome two beautiful baby boys, Quinn and Asher, both of whom appeared on the show briefly. John and Heidi co-parent their kids and so far it has been hiccup-free.

"She’s been great. We’ve come a long way from the beginning. And like anybody who’s been through something like this knows … once you hit that acceptance phase, all of a sudden, things sort of even out," he told US Weekly last month. 

What is John's net worth?



 

Since John talks about giving his kids a better life, let's take a look at what he's worth. According to a report published by Slice, his net worth is at $1.5 million. He works as an energy trader despite his family being in the commodity business for generations. Even though his job pays the bills, his true love is music. The reality TV star shares videos of him humming to a few tunes and playing the guitar quite often. 

Catch Bravo's 'Southern Charm' reunion part II on Thursday, February 4, at 9/8c. For more information, check your local listings.
