Romance is in the air as Mia Alario, the dynamic financial analyst turned reality TV star, opens a new chapter in her love life during Season 2 of Bravo’s Southern Hospitality. The 26-year-old, known for her feisty bartending skills, spilled the tea on her budding relationship, keeping fans on the edge of their seats.
In a recent interview with PopCulture, Mia gushed about her newfound love, revealing that Season 2 of Southern Hospitality will be the stage for her love story to unfold. While she tantalizingly withheld her mystery man’s identity, she assured fans that they would witness her “falling in love” in real-time on the show. With a chuckle, Mia jokingly stated, “The Grinch has a heart, okay,” hinting at the surprising nature of her blossoming romance. The Bravo starlet confessed that her new beau, whom she met during the filming of Season 2, has successfully captured her attention in a way no other has in the past 2-3 years.
Despite Mia’s active presence on Instagram, where she boasts over 24,000 followers, she has chosen to keep her love life well-guarded. No photos or videos of the couple have surfaced on her social media, leaving fans eagerly speculating about the identity of her mystery man.
Mia emphasized that the relationship is still in its early stages but assured viewers that they would witness the evolution of her love story as the season progresses. The decision to keep her boyfriend’s identity under wraps adds an air of mystery, creating anticipation among Southern hospitality enthusiasts.
A Refreshing Turn of Events from Season 1 Drama
Season 2 marks a delightful contrast to Mia’s tumultuous romantic journey in Season 1. The reality TV star faced drama and controversy when she accused her co-star, Shep Rose, of making unwelcome advances, despite him being romantically involved with another co-star, Taylor Ann Green.
During an appearance on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen in January 2023, Mia revealed the unsettling encounter with Shep, describing him as “geriatric” and expressing her surprise at his approach. Mia’s prompt disclosure of the incident to Taylor showcased her commitment to honesty and integrity in relationships.
Reflecting on the past, Mia expressed satisfaction at having stood up against inappropriate advances, stating, “I’m the one to tell your girlfriend. Absolutely, I let her know.” Her courage and transparency paid off, setting the stage for a fresh start in Season 2.
As Southern Hospitality returns to Bravo, Mia hinted at the excitement that awaits fans. She, along with co-worker Lucía Peña, shared insights into the upcoming season. Mia, brimming with enthusiasm, expressed her eagerness to delve into the nitty-gritty of her life, now that the initial nerves of Season 1 have subsided.
Lucía Peña, on the other hand, teased a professional struggle with boss Leva Bonaparte, hinting at a job-related ordeal. The trailer suggests a compelling narrative as Lucía seemingly pleads for her job back after seven years at Republic Garden & Lounge. The conflict brings forth questions of fairness and corporate hypocrisy, elements that Mia is not afraid to call out.
