Shep Rose and Andy Cohen share a deep bond. So, when Shep attended BravoCon, he was most excited to see Andy, the master of ceremonies for this annual event.
Shep credits Andy with a lot. In 2023, Shep attended BravoCon. But unfortunately, Las Vegas got the best of this Southern Charm star that year. Even still, Andy stood squarely in his corner.
“He was cool, but was like, ‘Hey, I want you to be on this channel for as long as you want. We love you, but you can’t do that in front of this person, that person. You just got to be way more cognizant,” Shep recalled. And now, Shep is opening up even more about his tightly knit friendship with Andy.

People caught up with Shep this year at BravoCon, where Shep noted that he was particularly excited to see Andy. Then, Shep further described his friendship with this Bravo frontman. As he explained, they are so tight that Shep even recently spent time with him and his children outside the city.
“It’s funny, we’re on a text chain, me and Austen [Kroll] and Craig [Conover] and Andy,” Shep revealed. But sometimes, he and Andy also “separately text. I mean, I was in the Hamptons, and Andy said, ‘Why don’t you come by?’ I was like, ‘I’m here.’”
Shep continued, “I met his son and his daughter and hung out on the beach for a little while. People always ask me what he’s like. He is the most genuine guy. If you ask him any stupid question, which I try to keep to a very bare minimum, he gets right back to you. He’s like the most — I mean, he’s true bloom.”
As for Andy, after their Hamptons hang, he noted on his SiriusXM show, Radio Andy, that Shep fared well with his two young kids. “You can tell the measure of a person by how they are with your kids,” Andy said, adding, “He walked on the beach — and, you know, Shep, I’ve always characterized like a golden retriever — but he walked on the beach, and Ben immediately ran over to him because he saw [his] fishing rod, and he’s like, ‘Are you going fishing?’ And Shep’s like, ‘Yeah, I’ll teach you how to do it, come here.’”
“It touched my heart,” Andy admitted. “I was like, ‘This is very sweet.’”
Southern Charm airs Wednesdays at 9/8c on Bravo. It streams on Peacock the next day.
