Bravo boss Andy Cohen loves to interview Bravo celebrities – aka Bravolebrities – every night in the Watch What Happens Live! clubhouse.  For more than a decade, Cohen has talked with the stars of the Real Housewives franchise, Below Deck, Vanderpump Rules, and Southern Charm, just to name a few.

But despite his love of all things Bravo, Cohen only follows three Bravolebrities on Instagram.

One of the Bravolebrities that Cohen follows on Instagram is Southern Charm star, Shep Rose. He regularly makes appearances on WWHL and his relationship with Taylor Ann Green has become a popular topic among Cohen’s guests.

In December 2020, Shep’s Southern Charm co-star Patricia Altschul said she thought Taylor was “an awfully nice girl.” However, her son Whitney Sudler-Smith had his doubts, calling the relationship a “showmance.”

In response, Shep told Cohen during his most recent WWHL appearance that Whitney “just wants me to be like him.”

“He wants me to go into my 50s without a marriage, without a family, that sort of thing,” Shep said on the WWHL After Show. “Honestly, it’s not a bad life. He just got back home from Tulum and all this s**t. He has a lot of fun.”

Some of Shep’s co-stars think that his relationship with Taylor is the real deal, including Leva Bonaparte. She admitted that she was skeptical at first. But now, she thinks that “they’re gonna make it.”

Tom Sandoval survived the ‘Vanderpump Rules’ purge

The second Bravolebrity that Cohen follows is Vanderpump Rules star Tom Sandoval. The TomTom owner was one of the few cast members who survived the cast purge in 2020. And Cohen says he is looking forward to a “shift” if the show does return.

“Listen, so they’ve got Lala [Kent], James [Kennedy], Scheana [Shay], Tom [Schwartz], Tom [Sandoval], Katie [Maloney], Ariana {Madix], the new people. That’s a solid cast,” Cohen said on  SiriusXM’s Radio Andy. “When that show’s going to start shooting again, I have no idea, but I’m excited. I’m excited for there to be a shift also.”

Cohen’s comments came after Jax Taylor and Brittany Cartwright announced they were leaving Vanderpump Rules. Bravo also fired several stars last summer, including Stassi Schroeder and Kristin Doute.

Vanderpump Rules is currently on hold due to the pandemic. Bravo has not canceled the show. Insiders say they did tell the cast to “sit tight until the future is more clear.”

Andy Cohen also follows ‘Southern Charm’ star Craig Conover

The third and final Bravolebrity that Cohen follows on Instagram is Shep Rose’s Southern Charm co-star Craig Conover.  Ahead of the season 7 reunion, Cohen played a game of “ReWHOnion” with Shep and Leva. And they revealed that Craig was the one “who was the most full of BS” during the two-part special.

Cohen agreed that Craig “was something.” And Shep added that “he was shot out of a cannon” the moment the reunion began.

During part one of the reunion, Craig forced Shep to admit that he had cheated on Taylor when he said, “You made out with a girl.” Shep said that he did kiss an old flame he had been texting. But, he says that “nothing ever came of it.”

“It was a moment of weakness. I was drinking, but that’s all it was and I’ll go to my grave knowing that that’s true,” Shep said.

Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen airs Sunday through Thursday nights on Bravo. Part two of the Southern Charm reunion airs Thursday night February 4 on Bravo.
