After two-plus years of dating, Southern Charm’s Shep Rose and Taylor Ann Green have officially broken up – but what happened?
Spoiler alert: This article contains spoilers for Season 8 of Southern Charm.
Season 8 of Southern Charm provides a much-needed update on what the likes of Shep Rose, Craig Conover, and Naomie Olindo have been up to. How are the coupled-up cast members getting on? Is Shep Rose still dating Taylor Ann Green? What about Craig and Paige DeSorbo, and Kathryn Dennis and Chleb Ravenell?
How are Shep Rose and Taylor Ann Green holding up? Are the ‘Southern Charm’ stars still together?
The life expectancies of the relationships appearing on Southern Charm tend to vary. Take ex-narrator Cameran Eubanks, who has been happily married to Jason Wimberly since 2014. Likewise, Patricia Altschul’s friendship with Michael Kelcourse — who continues to appear on Southern Charm despite suffering an acute spinal cord injury in February 2021 — has withstood the test of time. What about Shep Rose, Charleston’s own womanizer, and his girlfriend, Taylor Ann Green? How are they holding up?
Sadly — or thankfully, depending on who you ask — Shep and Taylor’s relationship has officially come to an end! According to People, a source told the publication that the couple have split due to issues with infidelity.
“[Taylor] is incredibly hurt, but she knows that she deserves a guy who will fight for her, not one who is so selfish,” a source told the outlet. Another clams that “[Shep] will regret this.”
Apparently, it appears that cheating problems have been an issue for the pair for quite some time. An insider shared that Shep simply doesn’t have the capacity to be faithful to Taylor.
“Shep has a real issue with monogamy and refused to commit to Taylor, telling her that he doesn’t want to be with just one person and change his lifestyle,” the source said.
Unfortunately, Shep and Taylor are not the only couples experiencing the breakup blues. Several couples on Southern Charm have announced their breakup ahead of the Season 8 premiere. Take Kathryn, who split up with Chleb in November 2021. With the addition of Naomie, who dated Craig for about three years before they called it quits in 2017, things are looking slightly shakier for Craig and Paige DeSorbo, his girlfriend and co-star on Summer House and Winter House.
Shep Rose and Taylor Ann Green have faced their share of breakup rumors.
Shep and Taylor first sparked dating rumors in March 2020. They made the relationship official in May 2020, and it’s been a rather bump road. They made their first appearance as a couple on Southern Charm in the Season 7 premiere. Shep and Taylor have faced some criticism, with some fans scrutinizing how Shep’s has been treating Taylor, which prompted breakup rumors. And it seems that Taylor has finally had enough.
Interestingly, the Season 8 trailer of Southern Charm showed Shep and Taylor going through tough times. However, Taylor reportedly told People in June 2022 that “it’s difficult to curate a relationship on camera” and said that “good things are on the horizon” for the couple.
Clearly, “curating a relationship” got the best of Shep as he’s now a single man these days.
Keep in mind, couples breakup to makeup every day. So, there is a chance that Shep can get back in Taylor’s good graces. Only time will tell.
