Former Southern Charm star Leva Bonaparte isn’t letting Joe Bradley have the last word!
Leva clapped back at her former employee after the Southern Hospitality personality took a not-so-subtle shot at their previous working relationship.
Joe recently reflected on his career at DirecTV’s Unscripted Event at The Hideaway in Beverly Hills. Joe didn’t exactly leave his former boss with a glowing review.
How It Started:
At DirecTV’s Unscripted Event last week, Joe Bradley shared his Taste and Waste from filming Season 4 of Southern Hospitality.
“The biggest taste for me last season was taking a leap of faith and realizing I can throw a badass party on my own,” Joe explained. “So I think that really gave me the courage for my emo night. Like, I love rock-and-roll, hosting emo night in Charleston — turning 30, that’s my taste.”
But when it came time to share his waste, Joe took a low-key swipe at his former employer. “My waste was me wasting too much time at my job working for people who didn’t believe in me. That was a waste. Waste of time!”
While Joe didn’t mention Leva by name, viewers could connect the dots given his history working at Republic.
How It’s Going:
Leva apparently wasn’t thrilled with Joe’s assessment of his time working for her.
The former reality TV personality, who owns multiple Charleston establishments, took to social media with a pointed response.
“Some of y’all were never taught that you should taste your words before you spit them out!” she wrote.
Leva was notably absent from Bravo’s Fan Fest, despite the event taking place in Charleston, where she has built her restaurant and nightlife empire.
However, her response to Joe didn’t exactly win over the Bravo crowd. Fans were quick to weigh in, with one Southern Hospitality viewer commenting, “Girl… 🙄 🥱”
Another took a less sympathetic approach toward Leva, writing, “it’s refreshing to see karma really give it to those who deserve it.”
