In the latest episode of Southern Hospitality, Kulp addressed and denied allegations of cheating on his girlfriend Emmy Sharrett, taking issue with his friend Joe Bradley‘s response to the rumors. During the episode, Kulp expressed frustration with Joe for not defending him when Oisin O’Neill, another cast member, spread rumors about him allegedly kissing a girl at Joe’s place. He argued that Joe, as his friend, should have quickly dispelled the false information. Joe, on the other hand, felt caught in the middle and questioned why he always had to mediate such situations.
