Southern Charm’s Olivia Flowers Calls Taylor Ann Green ‘a S— Person’ for Exposing Hookup with Thomas Ravenel

Olivia Flowers’ hitherto unknown relationship with Thomas Ravenel has been put into circulation.

During Thursday Southern charm reunion in season 9, Taylor Ann Green took it upon herself to bring her former love to light. The revelation came as Taylor and Austen Kroll were once again in the hot seat for the secret kiss and subsequent cover-up that has dominated talk this season.

After Olivia read the riot act, Taylor cryptically commented, “I’m just saying, Olivia, forgive the way you want to be forgiven.”

Confused host Andy Cohen asked, “Forgive the way you want to be forgiven?”

After a confused pause, Olivia said, “Go ahead and say it. I can already see what you’re trying to do. You’re dangling this over my head, I want to see it. Say it.”

When pressed a bit, Taylor, 29, said she believed Olivia had also betrayed a “friend and confidant” in her ex Southern charm star Kathryn Dennis hooking up with Kathryn’s ex Thomas.

Thursday night’s episode wasn’t technically the first time viewers heard rumors of a relationship between Olivia, 31, and Thomas, 61.

During last year’s reunion, Madison LeCroy alluded to funny business between the two — and it was Taylor who defended her then-friend at the time.

Olivia explained at this year’s gathering that she turned to Taylor after the insinuation of Madison (33) to thank her for her support – but also to acknowledge the indiscretion.

Olivia explained at this week’s reunion, “I was fresh out of college, I was 20 years old. Stupid, drunken night, I had a relationship with T-Rav once. And I wanted to take it to my grave — like, who wouldn’t?”

Taylor’s ex Shep Rose chuckled to himself and Craig Conover grimaced.

About Taylor, Olivia continued, “She’s the only person in the world I told about this, and now you’re sitting there trying to use it against me.”

“On Earth?” Taylor asked.

Andy, 55, still didn’t understand why Taylor was comparing his situation to Olivia’s. To which Olivia said, “I didn’t know Kathryn then. I met Kathryn after it happened.”

Andy asked, “Was she with Thomas at the time?”

“I have no idea, I don’t believe it,” Olivia said.

Andy followed up, “Then why is it so bad?”

Olivia just replied, “That’s why [Taylor’s] I just sat there and tried to use it against me. Not only have you proven that you’re a s— friend, you’re also a s— man.”

While the cast mates processed the twist, Andy dismissed them for a break before filming the second episode, which airs next Thursday.

The revelation comes almost a year after Thomas showed support for Flowers following the death of her brother Conner last February.

After the 32-year-old’s death became public, Ravenel paid tribute on Instagram, writing: “RIP Conner Flowers 2/9/1990-1/30/2023 Words cannot truly describe how rare and exceptional you were. You will be missed terribly you are missed by those to whom you were so kind and selfless. My deepest condolences to your heartbroken family.”

Ravenel was a member of the cast Southern charm for five seasons, starting with its debut in 2014, and made a guest appearance in season 7.

The former South Carolina state treasurer came to the show with quite a reputation, having served time in federal prison on drug charges, ending his time in office. He continued to provide fodder for gossip by impregnating Kathryn during the first season. The on-and-off couple welcomed daughter Kensington “Kensie” Calhoun in March 2014 and son St. Julien Rembert in November 2015.

In April 2018, around the time Season 5 began airing, Ravenel was accused of sexual assault, a charge that was quietly dropped after the settlement. A month later, another plaintiff – the children’s nanny – came forward and also claimed that Ravenel had sexually assaulted her. He was arrested and charged. In September, he pleaded guilty to third-degree assault and battery in connection with the second charge, eventually paying a $500 fine but serving no prison time.

In October 2020, it was confirmed that Ravenel would not be returning Southern charm.
