Below Deck: Mediterranean star Joe Bradley is dropping some telling information about his Charleston-based name twin, Southern Hospitality star Joe Bradley.
Bradley (Below Deck Med) appeared on Monday night’s (June 8) episode of Watch What Happens Live, where host Andy Cohen asked if he has ever met Bradley (Southern Hospitality). But in his response, he seemingly confirmed that the Republic Garden & Lounge’s VIP manager is dating his co-star Maddi Reese.
“I have met the other Joe Bradley. What a guy. I met him in person in Miami,” he said. “His girlfriend was DJing at this venue in Miami.”
Girlfriend?! While Bradley (Below Deck Med) didn’t name who he was talking about, Reese is a DJ — and Bradley (Southern Hospitality) frequently attends her gigs.
Bradley (Southern Hospitality) infamously declared his love for Reese in the first season of the reality series, though she ultimately friend-zoned him and continued her relationship with her now ex-boyfriend Trevor Stokes.
“A lot of the outside world was like, ‘What the fuck! There’s this perfectly good guy who loves you! Why aren’t you going with him?’” Reese recalled to People at the time. “And yeah, for sure I considered it and wondered whether I’d regret not going out with him. But I don’t think it’s that easy.”
Bradley (Southern Hospitality) last posted a photo with Reese in late May when he attended her DJ set in Cleveland, Ohio.
The reality star, for his part, has had his fair share of romances since joining the Bravo universe. Aside from his fling with co-star Mia Alario in Season 1, he spent a portion of Season 2 seeing Salley Carson — who will reportedly join the Southern Charm Season 10 cast.
Bradley (Southern Hospitality) also dated Summer House star Danielle Olivera for a handful of months. However, their relationship came to an end following his alleged hookup with Real Housewives of New York City alum Luann de Lesseps.
“I mean, Joe stayed at my apartment for two nights after the alleged sleepover … He lied to my face and said, ‘Absolutely not. I would never do such a thing,’” Olivera said during a March episode of WWHL.
Bradley (Southern Hospitality) also denied hooking up with de Lesseps at the Season 2 reunion, though he simultaneously declared himself the “mayor of MILF City.”
Watch What Happens Live airs Sunday through Thursdays at 10 p.m. ET on Bravo. New episodes are available to stream the next day on Peacock.
