Allie Eklund Keeping It Hot In The Bravosphere?
It was rumored that Allie Eklund only dated Steven McBee Jr. so that she could be on McBee Dynasty. Therefore, she could promote her brand and get more publicity, as she loved the public eye. Kristi McBee noted that Allie was a “paid actress” and played the whole family, while fans stated that she loved the camera:
Now that her time with Steven is over, it seems that Allie does not want to give up the spotlight. She was spotted out on a date with Southern Charm star Austen Kroll. The two did meet at BravoCon 2025, so they may have formed a friendship there. However, Steven McBee Jr. appeared to be too possessive to “allow” Allie to exchange contact information with another man. The McBee Dynasty bombshell and Kroll dined at Perla’s in Austin, Texas. Per TMZ, they enjoyed each other’s company for over an hour.

Despite the duo appearing quite happy together, an insider claimed that they are just friends. He had come to Texas, and they were just having a friendly get-together. Austen Kroll was previously linked to his Southern Charm co-star, Salley Carson. She has since moved on with Summer House star Kyle Cooke, who was married to Amanda Batula.
‘Fully Invested’
McBee Dynasty and Southern Charm fans are “fully invested” in this possible new coupling. For some reason, they like the idea of Allie Eklund and Austen Kroll together, regardless of whether it’s true or not:
- Wait, Allie Eklund and Austen Kroll?! The crossover event I didn’t see coming. Is this a new reality TV power couple or are they just filming something? Either way, I am fully invested in this drama.
- Austen Kroll staying in reality TV headlines is truly one of the most consistent constants in nature.
- Another Bravo star collecting leftovers? Allie’s rebound game is faster than Austen’s last situationship.
