Southern Charm's Jarrett ‘JT’ Thomas Claims He 'Resigned' Mid-Season 10

Jarrett “JT” Thomas says he is leaving Southern Charm in the midst of filming season 10.

“It comes with a heavy heart to share that I have resigned from Southern Charm,” JT, 38, wrote via Instagram on Friday, November 8. “Yesterday, I informed Bravo that I will not be participating in the 2-3 remaining green room interviews before [the season] airs 12/5.”

He added, “I’ve done about ~9 thus far leading up to today. I no longer wish to participate in any way moving forward with the TV show.”

JT declined to detail his decision to walk away from the Bravo hit and the network has not publicly addressed his exit. Us Weekly has reached out for comment.

“I will leave it at that for now while I work on the next steps to recover both physically and mentally from what has been an extremely challenging and exhausting year,” he concluded.

JT initially joined Southern Charm in 2023’s season 9.

“JT is a professional thorn in Austen [Kroll]’s side the whole year,” costar Craig Conover exclusively told Us in September 2023, noting that he’s been friends with JT for “a while.”

One month earlier, JT teased how he prepared for his Bravo debut.

“Knowing the camera adds 10lbs, when the show offered me the role I decided to lose 10lbs of bad weight,” JT wrote via Instagram in August 2023. “It wasn’t an easy journey but I’m so glad I got it done bc I feel 10x happier and healthier and my diabetes is so much easier to manage now without all the excess. If I can do it, so can you, get those steps in!”

While Craig, 35, teased to Us that JT did a “good job” holding his own against the cast, he got into a physical altercation with Austen, 37, during the season 9 reunion.

“In Jamaica, I realized Austen cares about nobody but himself,” JT claimed in a confessional from the January episode. “Deep down he’s a self-serving, insecure, me-first, coward.”

JT confronted Austen during the cast’s tropical trip, accusing his costar of being the “genesis of why there’s so much pain and tears” among the group.

After a full season of back-and-forth barbs, Austen finally realized why JT was against him the entire time.

“Oh, now I get it. He’s jealous of me,” Austen told the cameras. “He wanted Taylor [Ann Green] so bad. And I get the girl. JT doesn’t.”

In the finale, Taylor, 30, had shut down JT’s persistent romantic attempts. She previously hooked up with Austen after her 2022 breakup with Shep Rose. Taylor is now dating Gaston Rojas.
