The evolution of Taylor Ann Green from amicable girlfriend of Shep Rose to jilted ex going through a full breakdown on national television is a curious one. It seems Taylor has become the villain of Southern Charm Season 9.
At first, Taylor was given a lot of grace. Shep’s infidelities were by no means an easy matter to digest. But after it came to light that she hooked up with Austen Kroll, her best friend’s ex-flame, sympathies changed.
Taylor’s actions have taken her further downhill. From lying to her friend about the hookup, to now playing victim and demanding forgiveness, Taylor seems to be lacking any self-awareness. And in the December 21, episode of Southern Charm, she spiraled and made seemingly unforgivable comments.
Olivia overheard Taylor’s real feelings
Racking up apologies doesn’t ensure forgiveness. Taylor imploded at a cast dinner in Jamaica when Olivia Flowers pushed back on her former best friend’s victim narrative. Shep’s ex stood at the table and announced that she wanted to put the Austen love triangle discussion to bed in an attempt to manage her mental health.
“She still said, ‘Shove it up your ass, Taylor. F–k you,’” Taylor reacted when it was clear Olivia was having none of it.
The Southern Charm group believes the illicit duo did have sex, due to their admission of discussing the option of dating each other with family members. It seems a serious discussion, and one that you wouldn’t just have because of one kiss.
As the subject of family came up, Taylor made the unfortunate statement of comparing her relationship with her brother to Olivia and her late brother, Conner Flowers. At that point, Olivia left for her room and was seen weeping over the raw topic.
Meanwhile, Taylor went to her adjacent room in the hotel to speak with Worth about what went down. Olivia overheard the conversation, in which she was criticized for her comfy hang-outs with Austen post-split.
“She loves him then hates him. I’m the devil and yet she can go cuddle with Austen with her bra off and he’s totally in the clear,” Taylor told her brother.
She added, “It’s not like they dated. They were just never anything to begin with. I don’t regret anything. Neither one of them ever claimed to be each other’s boyfriend or girlfriend.”
Taylor talks too much
After overhearing that gem of a statement, Olivia stormed into Taylor’s room.
“Are you f–king stupid?” Olivia yelled. “Talk quieter next time, I’m right next door to you! Dumb f–king bitch.”
But the damage was done. After overhearing that conversation it was clear to Olivia that Taylor neither respected her relationship with Austen nor did she feel any remorse about her hookup with the Southern Charm bad boy.
“It’s foul,” Olivia said to her mother during a call later in the episode. “I will never look at her the same.”
