Southern Charm star, Patricia Altschul has suffered a devastating loss just a month after her beloved butler passed away. She and Michael Kelcourse were immensely close but he had a stroke in 2021. Now, she is dealing with more heartbreak but what happened? Keep reading for further details.
Patricia Altschul Suffers Heartbreaking Loss
It has been a rough few months for Southern Charm matriarch, Patricia Altschul. Her beloved and trusted butler, Michael Kelcourse, had taken a turn. He has been living in an assisted living facility after his 2021 stroke which caused him to have to retire from working for Miss Pat. She could never find someone as competent as Michael, especially to make her martinis. There came a point in Season 9 when she and her son, Whitney Sudler-Smith FaceTimed Michael. They had him show Whitney how to perfect the martini as no one could do it the way he did.
Then, he started to get worse and it looked like he was going to pass. Cards were encouraged and then, in October 2024, Michael passed away. Patricia was clearly heartbroken as were millions of Bravo fans. They knew and loved him so everyone was collectively grieving. Now, to make matters worse, Patricia has suffered another loss. Her pug, Chauncey passed away, as Patricia shared on her Instagram. She shared photos of her holding Chauncey and some solo snaps. Yet, what stood out the most were the photos of Michael embracing Chauncey as he did not just care for Miss Pat but everyone in the home.

A New Season Ahead
This chapter has sadly closed but a brand new chapter of Southern Charm is about to begin. Season 10 will start airing on December 5th and it is set to be filled with drama. Patricia Altschul showed herself filming her final confessionals of the season. Immediately, fans were ready to see her again:
- Thank you so much Pat! I’m so excited to see the new season of southern charm! Thank you for letting us into your beautiful home and into your life!
- Because of you…. I live in a Kaftan!! Xo
Unfortunately, Jarrett ‘JT’ Thomas departed before he was done filming his second season so that will bring even more excitement to the reunion. Hopefully, viewers will get one more look at Chauncey and Michael will be honored the way he deserves.
