Throughout Season 10 of Southern Charm, viewers have gotten to know more about Austen Kroll's relationship with girlfriend Audrey Pratt. During the Season finale, which aired on March 20, Austen shared new details on his love life, and it seems all is still going well with his "Pookie."

At a formal party hosted by Madison LeCroy and Ryan Albert, Austen and Craig Conover discussed their repaired friendship and respective relationships at the time.

"We haven't been this close since you and Audrey started to date," Craig observed, "I haven't gotten to ask you about it! Like, how you feel about the relationship." The Sewing Down South founder then admitted, "I never really had a spot to ask you, before, since we weren't getting along."

Austen opened up instantly, gushing about Audrey, "Yeah, I genuinely, like, need and love her presence in my life."

Craig then offered his perspective on dating someone long-term. "When you can be yourself with your partner, it's like the best thing ever," he said. 

Did Austen Kroll and Audrey Pratt get engaged?

At the moment, Austen and Audrey are not engaged. 

Though they're very much in love, they've only been official for just over a year. Speaking to The Daily Dish in December 2024, the Trop Hop founder said he was happy to keep things the way they were.

"I am certainly one of those people [who] would take, like, three years before I even began to think about popping a question or, you know, something like that," he explained.

Are Austen Kroll and Audrey living together?

No, Austen and Audrey are not living together yet.

As he noted to the The Daily Dish, "She's gonna live in Charlotte for another year. And that's completely fine, because there's no rush to me."

This was a sentiment he'd echoed throughout the show, particularly regarding his comfort in the long-distance relationship.

Now, that's not to say that they haven't experienced milestones together.

For example, fans saw Audrey meet Austen's parents during Southern Charm Season 10, Episode 6, where they also discussed having kids in the future.

Since filming wrapped, Austen and Audrey have shared many sweet moments together, including Audrey's vacation with the Kroll family toward the end of 2024.

On the January 30 episode of Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen, Austen gushed about his love. 

"She's just so lovely, and I come from a past of tumultuous relationships," said Austen, who previously dated Madison, Olivia Flowers, and Chelsea Meissner. "And she is as steady as it goes. Yeah, it's nice."
