Is Southern Charm's Whitney Sudler-Smith Dating Kelly Bensimon? See His Suspicious Instagram Messages With the Ex RHONY Star

Could Kelly Bensimon be joining the Southern Charm cast alongside Whitney Sudler-Smith for season seven? Judging by a new Instagram post, that seems to be a possibility.

As the Southern Charm cast films the upcoming season, Whitney and Kelly, who starred in a full-time role on three seasons of The Real Housewives of New York City, have been caught flirting with one another on Instagram.

“My Dad and I catching a [Vikings] game before they bionically reattach my arm at the Mayo Clinic. Good times!” Whitney wrote in the caption of a photo posted on Sunday of himself and his father.

After sharing his post, Whitney received a suspicious comment from Kelly, which included four heart emoji.

“????????????????,” Kelly shared.

In response, Whitney revealed he and Kelly would soon be spending time with one another.

“Can’t wait for you to nurse me after,” he said.

Southern Charm Whitney Sudler-Smith and Kelly Bensimon Spark Romance Rumors

If Whitney is romantically involved with Kelly, she reportedly won’t be the first RHONY cast member he’s been with. As fans may have seen, Whitney’s mother, Patricia Altschul, seemingly confirmed he hooked up with Sonja Morgan after he was accused of liking men on Instagram.

“He’s not gay..ask Sonja,” Patricia told the fan after she and Sonja were seen attending the Pride Parade in New York City with one another over the summer.

In addition to his potential hookups with Kelly and Sonja, Whitney has also reportedly hooked up with his Southern Charm co-star Kathryn Dennis. However, after the topic was brought up on the show’s sixth season months ago, Whitney denied any such thing, claiming that he and Kathryn had “different interpretations” of the events that had taken place between them.

UPDATE: A rep for Kelly is denying the dating rumor. “They have been good friends for years,” Kelly’s rep tells PEOPLE, with a rep for Bravo adding, “They’re old friends and not dating.”
