“He was like, ‘That’s not the important part.’ He was like, ‘A drunken kiss, doesn’t really matter. A conversation that we had [about dating]. OK, we can do that,’” Taylor recalled. “But then of course he was like, ‘I feel liberated and free and I don’t care.’ And I was like, ‘Well, I’m glad you feel liberated, because I just lied to one of my really good friends and I felt really, really bad about that.’”
As viewers noticed, Taylor had sworn to Olivia that she and Austen didn’t hook up.
“I was like, ‘I wish we were on the same page with this because I stuck to what you had advised me to do,’” she famous, admitting she felt “a little bit” betrayed however finally forgave Austen.

“Looking back, I’m like, ‘I wish that we had just kind of [waited],’ but I was so eager to be like, ‘I don’t want you to hear it from anybody else. I want you to hear it from me.’ So I was like, snag her at the [moment] when she walked in, I’m like, ‘Hey, welcome,’” Taylor shared. “I was like, ‘I should have probably taken her off and pulled her aside,’ but I just was like, ‘I have to tell her.’ … Austen got to feel liberated with his friend. I want to feel liberated with mine.”
During one other interview, with The Decider, Taylor stated she feels unhealthy for “breaking girl code,” however she felt it was necessary to discover whether or not Austen was her “soulmate.”
“Looking back on it, I wish I just hadn’t, but it was worth exploring. Because what if Austen was my soulmate?” she puzzled. “I truly believe in soulmates but like, what if he was, and I didn’t know that because I never explored it? But yeah, it happens. People pretend like it doesn’t happen — but it was worth exploring, honestly. Nothing came of it.”
Taylor additionally felt unhealthy for failing to be sincere with Olivia.

Austen additionally wasn’t the one castmate she kissed amid filming on Southern Charm season 9; she additionally kissed Shep.
“It was right after we just got into a fight. I mean, who knows? We can sit down and try to be play psychologist and unravel why I did what I did. It’s like, we want what we can’t have, and then that trigger reminding me ‘I’m not what Shep wants.’ And then, you know, we shared a little kiss. And that’s all it was,” she famous. “I mean, you won’t see the kiss — the cameras were gone by then.”
As she made out with each Austen and Shep, Taylor confessed to sending a racy pic to Whitney.

And I did it to get under Shep’s skin. That one I will take full responsibility for. That was a dig at Shep … I own up to it. Shame on me.”
“But I think it’s very weird that Whitney would even share that with his mother [Patricia Altschul]. Very odd. Like, what in the world? You’re gonna go run to mommy’s room and be like, like, ‘Wheee.’ That’s weird,” she added.
Also throughout the interview, after confirming Jarrett “JT” Thomas‘ emotions for her weren’t reciprocal, saying the 2 of them are nothing greater than “great [friends],” Taylor regarded again on her reunion with Little Craig, throughout which Shep obtained emotional.
“I’m kind of like, ‘Why are you crying? You’re the one that broke up the family here, it was your choice,’” she recalled. “It was a little frustrating to see him get emotional, but at the same time, Shep just has a very tender heart, deep down. He cries at documentaries, so of course he’s gonna cry when he sees his little baby boy and mommy reunited.”
