Apparently, McBee Dynasty star Allie Eklund isn’t wasting any time moving on from her ex Steven McBee Jr.
But has she really dropped her fishing line back into the Bravo pond? On July 25, Allie was snapped having a bite with a Southern Charm star in Austin, Texas. The pair set tongues wagging when they were spotted laughing and talking over seafood at local restaurant Perla
One witness even said they appeared comfortable together, though there was no obvious PDA to be seen.
Allie Eklund was spotted with Austen Kroll
An insider filled in some of the details for TMZ, explaining that Allie and Asuten Kroll met at BravoCon 2025. They added that the pair were not actually on a date but were just grabbing a friendly lunch while the Southern Charmer was in town.
The lunch took place just months after Allie’s dramatic split with Steven. At the time, he accused his now-ex of cheating on him at Stagecoach. Does anything good ever happen at Stagecoach? I’m just saying.
Although Allie denied his allegations at the time, Steven posted multiple angry messages on social media. After reportedly receiving DMs from other attendees that his girlfriend was being unfaithful, Steven he blasted her online. He also posted pics of the man he thought she was cheating with.
After sharing some of Steven’s nasty messages online, Allie posted her side of the story. “The situation is painful, and I wouldn’t wish it on anyone,” she wrote on Instagram. “I’ve said what feels necessary in response to his actions, and I plan on taking time to process and move forward.”
Ultimately, Steven apologized for his hurtful language. After publicly calling his then-girlfriend a “hooker” and a “slut,” he later attended a “retreat” to address his anger issues.
In the meantime, Austen is used to being linked to other Bravo stars. Among his rumored past flings are Summer House stars Lindsay Hubbard and Ciara Miller. He’s also been linked with Very Cavallari alum Kristin Cavallari, though she insists they’re just friends.
The McBee Dynasty: Real American Cowboys and Southern Charm are both streaming on Peacock.
