Elizabeth Madison Of Southern Charm Says Her Relationship With J.D. Turned Toxic
Recently, Elizabeth Madison spoke out to Bravo to explain why their marriage ended.
“The differences in personality and the arguing that came from those differences morphed our beautiful relationship into something toxic. I was deeply saddened by how far we had fallen as a married couple, and at the time, I felt we had both done everything we could to make it work. Our differences had caught up to us, and although it was difficult, we made the decision to separate.”
Elizabeth Madison said it wasn’t just one thing that ended their Southern Charm marriage, but at some point, she realized the cons outweighed the pros.
“I was done and had been done for a long time. My heart wasn’t in it, and I felt like the cons of our marriage outweighed the pros. That said, even with all the difficulty, I knew I still loved him. I had just fallen ‘out’ of love with him. It is hard to explain.”

“Oh yeah, it felt really good. It was definitely something that was a long time coming. I had so much frustration that had really built up for months and months and months and I couldn’t understand why no one had ever said anything to him before. Watching it back, it was pretty much the same thing. I felt good about my decision to do it and was just glad that he realized that people knew and were talking about it and it wasn’t flying under the radar anymore.”
