Emmy Sharrett and Will Kulp Charles Sykes/Bravo
Emmy Sharrett had a complete breakdown during the latest episode of Southern Hospitality after being ambushed by her friends over issues with boyfriend Will Kulp.
During the Thursday, January 23, episode of the Bravo series, Michols Peña voiced his concerns over how Will has been treating Emmy to no avail.
“I’m laughing because Will is my person,” Emmy said in response. “That is my rock. Will is my safe space.”
Michols made it clear that his first interaction with Emmy’s boyfriend “was not good,” claiming he heard Will call Emmy “anorexic” and slamming her for allegedly only being “worried about herself and her body.”
Emmy, however, claimed that Will told her everything following his drunken night out in Charleston. “I give him the grace because I know that he was just deflecting,” she argued, noting, “If there was something toxic going on I would tell you.”
When Emmy and Michols’ conversation was brought up in front of the group later that night, Emmy grew even more frustrated. She claimed she was “OK,” but Will wasn’t, and they should back off.
Maddi Reese, TJ Dinch and Lake Rucker were among the friends who confirmed they all heard Will make demeaning comments about Emmy when he was out at a bar. Emmy shared what she had heard, but the group was concerned it wasn’t the full truth.
“Everyone is claiming to be his friend and Will is not here. I don’t feel comfortable having a conversation about Will when he’s not here to speak for himself,” she yelled.
Emmy proceeded to slam the table and storm off. When she called Will from inside the house, she had mascara tears streaming down her face.
“They’re trying to make you look bad,” Emmy told Will while crying and hyperventilating. “They’re saying that Will said that ‘you’re not the love of his life and that you don’t make him happy.’”

Will claimed it was “bulls—” and told Emmy not to “engage with their bulls—.” (Emmy and Will faced cheating rumors during season 2, but remained a united front.)
Emmy’s overreaction worried her friends, so Maddi tried to console her amid the breakdown.
“It was one night, and I have gotten drunk and said s— I didn’t mean,” Emmy told Will and Maddi. “I forgave you for it. I know you didn’t mean it.”
Newbie Oisin O’Neill ruffled some feathers on the newest episode of Southern Hospitality when he claimed Will Kulp cheated on his girlfriend, Emmy Sharrett. Oisin, who joined the Bravo series for season 2, made waves on the Thursday, December 21, episode after Emmy, 25, claimed that he “slapped my ass” while they were working together […]
Maddi explained, “I feel like people just wanted the situation to be addressed” and said they weren’t trying to “attack” her.
Bradley Carter later came inside to console Emmy, telling her, “We care about you. We love you.”
Emmy remained adamant that Will told her everything he said, and they had moved forward. Once she left the lake house, Emmy doubled down on her comments and took shots at her friends — not Will — for the situation.
“I am livid. These are my good friends,” Emmy told the cameras, claiming they didn’t come to her or Will alone to discuss their fears (which, per video footage in the episode, they all did). “You don’t do this to people you care about.”
Once back at her house, Emmy and Will revealed that they were disappointed in how their friends treated Emmy.
“It’s infuriating that two people we really loved and trusted failed to protect us from the harm that I am seeing Emmy go through right now,” Will said, referring to TJ and Bradley. “I think that is certainly some of the worst betrayal you can have from a friend.”
Emmy, meanwhile, confessed, “I don’t trust anyone. I don’t believe anyone.” She called everyone’s actions “pathetic,” “disgusting” and “evil.”
Emmy exclusively told Us Weekly earlier this month that she and Will are going strong. She revealed that she is hopeful an engagement is coming by the end of 2025 despite their recent ups and downs.
Southern Hospitality airs on Bravo Thursdays at 9 p.m. ET.
