Cameran Eubanks stars on Southern Charm, but somehow for the past 3 seasons she has kept her relationship off camera. Yes, she actually has a life partner….a husband even— 40-year-old Jason Wimberly and he is an Anesthesiologist in Charleston, South Carolina and the two have been married for over 2 years.
So how did Cameran get a free pass to keep her relationship off air? I suspect Executive Producer Whitney Sudler Smith really wanted the 32-year-old former Real World star and was willing to give her a special contract.
Unfortunately for us it means we barely know Cameran. All we ever see is her showing real estate or chastising Shep or Craig.
Anyhoo Cameran spoke to ET about keeping her relationship off-screen.
“I think there’s gotta be a little something wrong with you if you choose to put yourself on national television.”
(Well, duh, but no one gets on a reality show if they refuse to let cameras in on their private life, but I digress.)
“It’s just kind of a non-negotiable for me,” Cameran explains. “My husband, he has sense — common sense — therefore, he chooses to stay off reality television.”
Obviously this means producers of the hit show wanted Cameran bad, bad enough to give her a very special and unprecedented exception.
“My relationship is very precious to me, so, I try to keep that private,” she adds.
The funny thing is Cameran was married after season 1 and there was not a peep of the giant event on the show.
It just seems a bit hypocritical in my opinion. I mean the only reason Southern Charm continues to get renewed is because all of the other cast members have agreed to let cameras in on their relationships. So without that concession by her good friends Cameran would have no show to star on.
“You’ll have to wait and watch,” Cameran teases. “I go to therapy for it.”
I suspect Cameran had to deliver something personal to viewers or she would soon get the boot.
Southern Charm airs Monday nights at 9 p.m. ET on Bravo.

I could see them HAVING to concede to her AND her husband’s request/demand, from a legal standpoint. Think about it. His is a profession which demands a certain amount of respect and personal dignity, from patients, his peers-nursing staff AND fellow physicians in the OR.So if his and/or her personal life being exposed and titillated about could lead to a loss of perception of him as a sober,reliable,steady,doctor whose peers could feel safe in referring patients to,and the ensuing LOSS OF INCOME which resulted from that, he would be a BIG liability to the show’s producers. Therefore, any denial of him being on the show is probably very much mutual !
