Southern Charm’s Taylor Ann Green Gives Olivia, Austen Friend Update


Taylor Ann Green called herself a “dog with a tail in between my legs” after her Southern Charm season 9 drama — but where does she stand with Olivia Flowers and Austen Kroll now?

“I was definitely worried about coming back, but I also was hoping for some redemption and for people to see a different side instead of leaving on a bad note,” Taylor, 30, exclusively told Us Weekly of her choice to return for season 10, which premieres on Thursday, December 5.

She noted that she was “very hopeful” that Olivia, 32, would also be back so fans could “see that play out.” Taylor confessed it was “unfortunate” that Olivia ultimately did not return to the show. (Olivia confirmed in July that she was not asked back for season 10.)

Taylor and Olivia had a falling out during season 9 of Southern Charm after Taylor lied about hooking up with Olivia’s ex Austen. Taylor eventually confessed to talking with Austen, 37, about dating while he was trying to work things out with Olivia. Austen later admitted to kissing Taylor.

“I think we’re on a good turn and she reached out,” she said. “I allowed that space and time for her to reach out to me if she was ready or wanting or willing, and so she did, and I think we’re good.”
