After Southern Charm’s Taylor Ann Green revealed her crush on Tom Schwartz during an August Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen episode, the duo finally met during his BravoCon 2022 birthday party. “I tried to steal a birthday kiss,” she admitted on the BravoTV.com digital interview stage on Sunday, October 16.

The reason she was unsuccessful? “I was too nervous,” she explained, adding that the Vanderpump Rules cast member’s mom was also at the bash. “He’s adorable… I think it’s cute, too, that he’s very shy. I’m shy.”

Though Taylor’s flirty comments have all been in good fun, her ex Shep Rose, for one, wouldn’t mind if things actually turned serious between the Bravolebs. 

“I love Thomas Schwartz — that would make me happy if she ended up with Thomas Schwartz,” said Shep, who jointly announced their breakup in July after two years of dating, when speaking to E! News at BravoCon on Saturday, October 15. “My point is I’m not a jealous man. We had a great, great time. If she ends up with a very good guy that makes her happy, that would make me happy.”

Hours earlier, Tom also opened up to the outlet about a potential romance with the Southern Charm cast member. “Obviously Taylor is drop-dead gorgeous, a 10 out of 10,” he gushed. “But at this point in my life, dating seems like such an abstraction to me. I’m not even thinking about dating. I’m embracing being single, focusing on my career.”

Regardless, Shep’s supportive comments didn’t exactly come as a surprise given their interactions during BravoCon’s Southern Charmers panel on Sunday, October 16. Despite a contentious Season 8 reunion, Taylor apologized to Shep “for jumping down [his] throat.”

“There’s a lot of love for the person that’s sitting there today,” she shared, referencing her ex. “I recognize the person sitting there today [more] than I did at the reunion.”

Shep, for his part, responded, “She never, ever has to apologize to me, and I have her back and love her for eternity.”
