Reality TV and crime dramas don’t often collide, but when they do, it makes for an irresistible Hollywood crossover. Southern Charm star Venita Aspen recently set the internet buzzing when she admitted to sliding into the DMs of a Chicago P.D. star. And while she kept the details under wraps, fans are already playing detective, trying to uncover which member of the One Chicago universe caught her eye.
A Bold Move: Venita’s Unexpected Confession
Venita Aspen, known for her confident and stylish presence on Southern Charm, is no stranger to making bold moves. The reality star and influencer, who first appeared on the Bravo series as a friend before securing a full-time role, has always embraced her fearless personality. Whether she’s addressing social issues, shutting down drama, or making power moves in her career, Venita exudes confidence.
So when she casually revealed that she had slid into a Chicago P.D. star’s DMs, it was both shocking and entirely on-brand. Venita didn’t hold back, admitting that she made the first move, though she stopped short of revealing whether she got a response. Naturally, this confession sent fans of both Southern Charm and Chicago P.D. into full-blown detective mode.
Who’s the Mystery Cop? Fans Go Into Investigation Mode
With Venita keeping the identity of her Chicago P.D. crush a secret, fans quickly began speculating. The Chicago P.D. cast is full of charismatic and good-looking actors, making the guessing game even more intriguing.
Some theories include:
-
Jesse Lee Soffer (Jay Halstead) – Though he exited Chicago P.D. in Season 10, Jesse remains one of the most beloved stars of the franchise. His rugged charm and leading-man status make him a prime suspect.
-
LaRoyce Hawkins (Kevin Atwater) – As the show’s most eligible bachelor and a fellow Charleston native, LaRoyce would make for an exciting connection.
-
Patrick John Flueger (Adam Ruzek) – With his mix of humor and brooding intensity, Patrick has been a fan favorite since the show’s beginning.
-
Benjamin Levy Aguilar (Dante Torres) – As the new kid on the block, Benjamin has already gained a devoted fan following. Could he be the one Venita was drawn to?
Did It Work? The DM Dilemma
Sliding into someone’s DMs can be a nerve-wracking experience, even for reality stars. While Venita didn’t confirm whether the Chicago P.D. star responded, she did tease that she wasn’t afraid to shoot her shot.
Fans have been dying to know: Did he reply? Was it a friendly exchange, or did it fizzle out? And most importantly—could this lead to a possible romance between a Bravo star and a One Chicago heartthrob?
Bravo Meets NBC: A Crossover Worth Watching
If Venita’s DM slide led to a connection, this wouldn’t be the first time stars from different networks have found love. Over the years, reality TV personalities and scripted television actors have formed surprising relationships, proving that Hollywood is a small world.
Regardless of the outcome, Venita’s confession has given fans the ultimate crossover fantasy: the thought of a Southern Charm queen and a Chicago P.D. officer walking the red carpet together.
