Rodrigo Reyes was featured on Wednesday’s episode of Watch What Happens Live, where he made shocking allegations about Shannon Beador‘s behavior at BravoCon.

As the 41-year-old Southern Charm star confirmed Austen Kroll‘s now-ex-girlfriend, Audrey Pratt, had reason to be concerned about his friendship with Salley Carson, 31, weighed in on whether Craig Conover, 37, would prefer Paige DeSorbo, 33, or Charley Manley, 27, and revealed who was more to blame for the Austen vs Craig feud, Rodrigo spoke of his wedding plans and described the 61-year-old Real Housewives of Orange County cast member as the worst person.

“Shannon Beador. She was very rude and very condescending,” Rodrigo revealed on the January 28 episode of WWHL. “She was talking a lot of crap off to the side. [My fiance Tyler Dugas] heard her talking about Salley and I having a better position, one of the fan rooms. And it’s like, ‘Honey, show up on time, you won’t have to worry about that.’”

As for whether Audrey had reason to be concerned about Austen’s relationship with Salley, Rodrigo said, “Yeah.”

“We all saw what happened … the writing was all over the walls, the ceiling, and the floor,” he noted.

Rodrigo then shared that Salley was “9.5 out of 10 a girls’ girl,” but only “if she’s your girl.”

Looking back on Craig’s date with Charley, Rodrigo clarified that while Craig seemed like he didn’t want to be tied down, that was “just for optics’ sake.”

“Craig has been like, very interested in her,” he explained. “I think he’s really, [he] really wants this to be something, [but] you have Salley on the sidelines kind of against that … I think he’s just trying to preserve certain things without getting himself hurt.”

While Rodrigo believed Craig had a real interest in Charley, that wasn’t to say he’d pick her if Paige came back around

“[He’d choose] Paige. I mean, of course,” he stated.

Getting back to Salley, Rodrigo said she “definitely called dibs on Craig.”

“We were all witness to that, and she got very upset, and then you’ll see how all this unfolds later in the season,” he teased.

Rodrigo then spoke of Austen, 38, and Audrey’s attendance at his and Tyler’s engagement party, specifically Audrey’s confrontation with Shep Rose, 45.

“Audrey went into the party feeling like there was obvious issues there. They didn’t really show it, but she really kind of let Shep have it at the party, and so did Tyler, at one point, like let Austen have it about some of his behavior,” he recalled.

During the bash, Rodrigo found himself wondering why Austen let Audrey wander around without focusing on her.

“I’m like, what are you doing? How do you think she’s supposed to feel?” he wondered.

After noting that Austen was more to blame for his ongoing feud with Craig, saying that he needed to accept Craig for who he is and move on, Rodrigo said Austen was also the one who complained about the others, including Craig and Shep, the most.

“He wants to act like he’s very cool, calm, and collected, but behind the scenes, he’s a big old queen,” he alleged. “[But Austen and Craig] constantly pick and stab each other in the back.”

Regarding Salley’s suggestion that people didn’t know the real Whitner Slagsvol, Rodrigo pointed out that Whitner had a lot of layers.

“He’s an interesting guy. He’s funny. He’s smart. And I just think with these guys, it’s lost in the shuffle because they’re too busy b*tching with each other,” he suspected.

Also on the show, Rodrigo spoke of his upcoming wedding.

“After the kitchen renovation. We’re doing the big major things in steps, and I think we’d rather have a really nice kitchen to enjoy for ourselves before we have a party that other people can enjoy,” he explained.

Southern Charm season 11 airs Wednesdays at 9/8c on Bravo.
