"Being so petty"— Southern Hospitality fans react to Joe being upset with TJ for outing his kiss with Luann de Lesseps

Southern Hospitality season 3 aired episode 1 this week on Thursday, January 2, 2025. The segment marked the beginning of the new season but picked up with ongoing feuds and conflicts, as Joe and TJ individually discussed their issues with one another.

In a confessional, TJ said he and Joe hadn't spoken in months, while the latter explained that their "beef" started in New York five months ago. Joe met RHONY's Luann De Lesseps while on WWHL with Andy Cohen, and a month after that, TJ asked Joe to be honest about his "hook up" with the Bravo celebrity.

Although Joe previously denied the claims, he admitted to it in the latest episode. Fans of the reality show commented on Joe and TJ's feud online and criticized Joe's behavior.

"Not Joe Bradley being so petty over TJ outing LuAnn hookup," one person wrote on X.

"So because TJ correctly told Joe what Salley did last season & also correctly called that he cheated with LuAnn on Danielle, TJ is a bad friend?? Oh he’s so mad that TJ tried to help him & can see through his sh*t," a fan commented.

"Dude Joe Bradley is mad at the wrong person!! • Again, YOU are responsible for kissing Luann & f*cking things up with Danielle. • JT told you about the other girl getting w that guy because he is your friend - he didn't "sabatoge" anything!! SHE DID!!" a tweet read.

Some Southern Hospitality fans criticized TJ for sabotaging his relationship.

"my theory is that TJ has always had a crush on joe. he purposely sabotages all his relationships. unrequited love at it’s finest. it’s a losing game being a gay man with a crush on your straight guy friend," a person wrote.

"i don’t blame joe for not forgiving TJ. no way am i going to let someone who burned me once back into my life with the possibility it could happen again," a fan commented.

"I do think that Joe and THE Countess (let’s put respect on her name) hooked up while he was dating Danielle. However I also think that TJ isn’t loyal and shouldn’t be trusted in any sense," a fan commented.

Fans of Southern Hospitality further said:

"TJ: I was giving Joe the opportunity to come clean and tell the truth’ Who called you “El Zorro” giving opportunities to be real and honest?" a person wrote.

"Joe needs to take accountability," a fan commented.

"TJ betrayed my trust"— Joe explains why he was upset with cast member in Southern Hospitality season 3 episode 1

In Southern Hospitality season 3 episode 1, TJ and Joe opened up about their ongoing conflict that started 5 months ago. TJ told the cameras that he and Joe hadn't spoken in four months, and the latter revealed their beef started in New York.

TJ said that the reality star "definitely hooked up with Luann," while other cast members, including Joe's current girlfriend, Maddie, said that it was "iconic." Joe wondered why it mattered if Luann and he shared a bond, and TJ said that at the time of the incident, Joe was dating Danielle.

The Southern Hospitality season 3 star further said that he wanted to give Joe the opportunity to tell the truth because everyone already knew. Producers asked Joe why he had a problem with TJ, considering Page Six had done a story on his alleged involvement with the RHONY alum.

"Page Six isn't one of my best friends. TJ betrayed my trust, he confirmed those rumors and then sabotaged my relationship," Joe said.

Fans of Southern Hospitality season 3 commented on the ongoing feud and were divided on who was in the wrong.
