‘Southern Charm’ star Venita Aspen accuses producers of making her look like a ‘home wrecker’ for JT storyline

“Southern Charm” star Venita Aspen called out show producers for making her look like a “home wrecker” after she learned her crush Jarrett “JT” Thomas had a girlfriend.

The TV personality took to her Instagram Stories Saturday to allege producers altered the timeline of when they filmed scenes between her and Thomas, claiming she wouldn’t have continued pursuing her co-star if she had known he was taken.

“Let me make something VERY CLEAR,” she wrote.”That dinner JT and I had after I made a Branzino was AFTER the Bahamas y’all as an audience saw it BEFORE. So this week’s episode is now making me look like I’m a home wrecker when I’m not.”

“I know what I signed up for but I also will not allow the world to think I’m that woman when I’m not,” Aspen, 31, added.

Reps for Bravo weren’t immediately available to Page Six for comment.

The intimate Branzino dinner between the Bravo stars aired on Feb. 6, and it showed the two discussing their chemistry before Thomas dropped the bombshell that he was dating someone new.

“Do I know we had chemistry? Am I extremely attracted to you? Yes,” Thomas told Aspen, before adding, “But, I’m just being real, I’m seeing someone.”

“I won’t say I knew he had a girlfriend, I can say I knew he was talking to someone but it wasn’t a ‘this is who I’m dating,’” Aspen said in a confessional.

“I’m equally part angry and equally part sad, ’cause how long have we been flirting?”

Later in the episode, Aspen told Thomas she wasn’t a home wrecker.

The following episodes in the season then show the cast taking a trip to the Bahamas.

A preview of an upcoming episode from the trip shows Aspen giddy while telling her co-stars she’s been receiving long text messages from Thomas.

“He has feelings for you? Like more than a friend, or no?” a castmate asked Aspen, to which the latter nodded and grinned.

During an episode of Nick Viall’s “The Viall Files” podcast released on Tuesday, Aspen alleged she was attacked online by the woman Thomas was dating when the Season 10 trailer was released.

“We dated, I guess, for like two months,” she explained. “And then the super-teaser drops and this woman decides to annihilate me on social media.”

“That he was dating, that I was unaware of. And basically, like, calls me out on my name. And I was just like, ‘Hey, I don’t what’s going on with this. I need you to put a handle on it.’ And he was like, ‘I can’t do anything about it.’”
