Taylor Ann Green Explains Why She Sent Whitney Sudler-Smith a Nude Photo: 'God Created the Naked Body'

"Jesus isn’t going to hate me just because I sent a nude," Taylor Ann Green said on Thursday's episode of 'Southern Charm'

Southern Charm is getting spicy.

In the wake of the unexpected death of Olivia Flowers’ brother, exes Shep Rose and Taylor Ann Green met up on the beach and introduced their dogs Lil Craig and Penelope, respectively, during Thursday night's episode.

“That was supposed to be your little sister,” Taylor, 28, told Lil Craig.

In a confessional, Shep, 43, explained that he wanted “to have a nice relationship with Taylor, not romantic."

He tried to urge Taylor to repair her relationship with Olivia, 31, after lying to her about kissing Austen Kroll.

“You need to figure out what the next move with Olivia is,” Shep urrged Taylor.

Taylor understood that she “breached trust with a friend.”

“I would just say, ‘I’m sorry. I should have told you immediately. It will never, ever happen again,’” Shep suggested, as Taylor responded, "That’s good advice."

Speaking to cameras, Taylor said it seemed like Olivia didn’t want her support. “I don’t feel like I can fully be there for her because she doesn’t want me to be,” Taylor said.

OLIVIA SEEKS COMFORT

After powwowing with the guys at Whitney Sudler-Smith’s gathering at Patricia Altschul’s house, Rod Razavi took Olivia out on a date.

“Today’s Connor’s 33rd birthday,” Olivia told Rod, 40. "This whole thing its becoming more and more a reality.”

Olivia said she wanted to meet up with Rod because she’d been “cooped up” at home. “I just instantly feel comforted by him,” she told the cameras, adding that she considers Rod a “very calming presence.”

While together, Olivia told Rod she thought “Austen really stepped up as a friend,” as did the rest of the group. He wondered why Olivia seemed to have forgiven Austen for lying about the kiss with Taylor.

“I expected this from Austen. I didn’t expect it from Taylor,” Olivia said.

Because of that, “that cut’s not as deep,” Olivia explained.

Still, Rod wanted to keep seeing Olivia.

“I’m interested in seeing where this goes,” he said to Olivia. “And I just want to be here for you. And I can promise you I won’t make out with Taylor Ann, assuming this goes anywhere.”

BARING IT ALL

Jarrett “JT” Thomas decided to scale back the opening of his clubhouse event space, so instead of a big party, he hosted a dinner for the cast.

“JT became the most popular guy during quarantine because he had all the parties here,” Craig Conover said. “He helped spread COVID around Charleston.”

At the dinner, Madison LeCroy informed Venita Aspen that Taylor sent Whitney, 55, a naked photo.

Elsewhere during the cocktail hour, Taylor told JT, 38, she didn’t have a Valentine and hadn’t been dating. “I’m not trying to jump into anything,” she said. “I’m very happy.”

Olivia convened with Austen, 36, and thanked him for his recent support. “Unfortunately, he knows how this feels and it’s just a sad comfort,” Olivia told the cameras, referring to the childhood death of Austen’s older sister. “I hope that we can figure out a way to be in each other’s lives."

When Leva Bonaparte arrived, Madison and Venita, 30, spread the word of Taylor’s naked photo to her.

“Taylor’s somebody who chose to be a Bible beater, God worshipper, 'holy art thou, I praise the Lord every Sunday,' but then you turn around and you’re sending nudes to Whitney,” Venita told Leva, 42.

Madison also told Shep about the “provocative” photo Taylor sent to Whitney.

“Taylor went through a tempest, if you will, and I was a part of that,” Shep responded. “She didn’t know how to behave when things fell apart. She was trying to hurt me any way she could.”

Shep confronted Taylor about it directly, but he didn’t seem bothered. "It’s your right to text him a dark boob pic,” Shep said. “I don’t see you wanting to do that, but I’m not going to fault you.”

Taylor stood by her right to send whoever she wanted whatever kind of photos she pleased.

“God created the naked body. I believe we should all be naked,” she said in a confessional interview. “Jesus isn’t going to hate me just because I sent a nude.”

The conversation about the photo continued when the group sat down to dinner.

“Obviously since something was just brought up earlier today by Whitney — thank you — yes, there was a picture sent out to you that you could not see anything,” Taylor said.

Madison jumped in to say, “I saw your tits and vagina!”

Taylor explained why she sent the photo in the first place. “I was coming at you because I was upset at Shep,” she told Whitney at the table. “So, I was f---ing around with you to be f---ing around with him. You can send something, but nothing was seen.”

Craig, 34, chimed in that he saw the photo but “felt wrong seeing it.” Meanwhile, JT tried to keep the peace.

“I’m just gonna take the high ground here,” he said. “The high ground is this: Taylor is a good person who maybe made some bad decisions, but I would argue that the genesis of the bad decisions are male related.”

Taylor appreciated the defense. “I have not been the best version of myself and like, I’m working on that,” she said. “I went through a very terrible breakup with somebody who crushed me.”

Madison didn’t think that served as a reason to give Taylor a pass. “But does that give an excuse to do that to her?” Madison said of Olivia. “Don’t talk about friendship then you’re kissing the guy that she likes. Literally, it’s disgusting.”

Olivia wanted to sort things with Taylor privately. “I’m pissed at her, but we will deal with it,” Olivia said. “And as much as I appreciate support, we’ll figure this out. I don’t need it to be a pileup on her.”

But Madison wanted Taylor to take ownership. “She’s probably been with everybody at the table,” the mom of 10-year-old Hudson said in a confessional. “If you’re going to be a hoochie, be one. Own it.”

At the table, Madison called Taylor “phony and fake,” but Shep defended his ex-girlfriend.

“Just stop,” Shep said to Madison. “You flat out tried to embarrass somebody.”

But Madison wouldn’t stop. “I’m not one of your whipping bitches,” she said to Shep. “You’re not going to sit there and talk to me like that."

JT urged Shep to “keep it above board towards the ladies.”

“You’re the oldest guy in the room,” JT said to Shep, despite Whitney actually being the oldest. “Grow up!”
