Southern Charm star Shep Rose explained how his ayahuasca journey allowed him to reconnect with ex-girlfriend Taylor Ann Green.
“You’ve got a lot of time on your hands and your mind is certainly wandering,” Shep, 46, said while discussing his experience during a Wednesday, July 1, appearance on SiriusXM’s Page Six Radio. “They say you’re holding a mirror up to yourself.”
Ayahuasca is a hallucinogenic drug, which is illegal in the United States. South American cultures, however, see it as a spiritual, social or medicinal process that allows for deep emotional healing and trauma release.
Shep recalled going “through this spiral” and reflecting on his two-year relationship with Taylor, 31, which ended in 2022.
“She loved me so much and she cared about me so much and I took it for granted and I care about her and her family very much,” Shep admitted. “Thankfully, that relationship stayed somewhat connected.”
Shep also hinted that Taylor is “a little bit back” in his life. However, he couldn’t share too many details, presumably because Southern Charm is currently filming its 12th season.
The Bravo star noted that he’s “very pleased” to be able to say that he’s in a good place with Taylor after the ups and downs they experienced.
“I thought it was [a] gone forever situation, which I’ve never really had before. I’m, at least, on nice terms with my exes,” Shep continued. “We spent so much good time, so much laughter, so much adventure and intimate moments and lovely things.”
He added, “It’s hard for me to understand how not to honor that with whether you want to call it nostalgia or what have you.”
Taylor made headlines last month when she was spotted filming Southern Charm after leaving the Bravo series in April 2025 following season 10. Instagram account Bravo & Cocktails posted a photo of Taylor filming alongside Salley Carson and Rod Razavi on June 15.
“Sally, Taylor and Rod stuck in the ATL airport overnight with cast trip filming,” the social media post read. “This was taken at 1 am. Sally is in the white with red but I didn’t get a photo of her bc was trying to be subtle.”
Us Weekly reached out to Bravo for comment at the time.
Following her breakup from Shep, Taylor moved on with Gaston Rojas. They were together for three years before she announced they split during a June appearance on “The Viall Files” podcast.
Taylor also addressed rumors that she and Shep had reconciled.
“I have seen the rumors that we’re getting back together or hooking up again or whatever, and that is not true,” she said. “Even if I wanted to hook up with Shep again or get back together, I would hope I have a little bit more respect for myself to go from one cheating ex to the other.”
