Tensions continued to simmer under the Jamaica sun on Thursday’sSouthern Charm.
The cast continued to deal with the fallout of news aboutTaylor Ann GreenandAusten Kroll’shookupgoing public.
“I don’t enjoy the headlines and stuff,”Olivia Flowerssaid to Taylor, 28. “If you had just been honest with me from the start, like none of this would have happened.”
Taylor knew that. “I made a mistake and I lied about it,” she said to Olivia, 31. “I have put everything out and I can’t do anything more.”
Taylor said in an on-camera interview that she wished Olivia would be more forgiving. “Somebody who I thought I was going to spend the rest of my life with cheated on me,” Taylor said ofShep Rose. “But I’ve forgiven Shep. I’m a forgiver. I want a forgiving friend in my life.”
Olivia confronted Taylor about how she tried to make Shep, 43, jealous with Auste, 36, after Shep didn’t reciprocateher booty call text.
“I don’t understand where your head is sometimes,” Olivia said to Taylor.
Olivia felt like her friendship with Taylor couldn’t be repaired. “Our friendship is f—ing broken,” Olivia said. “Like, I don’t know how to be your friend anymore. So, I hate you for that. And I hope it was f—ing worth it.”
Olivia stormed out of the restaurant and sat on the bus crying. Taylor started crying as well, so the group decided to call it a night.
“I’m sorry and thank you everybody,” Shep said to the other patrons.
CRUSIN’ FOR A BOOZIN’
The next day, Austen debriefed withWhitney Sudler-Smithand Taylor chatted with Jarrett “JT” Thomas at the pool.
“I don’t want to be verbally abused and I was verbally abused last night,” Taylor said to him.
JT, 38, told Taylor he would “keep defending you.”
“There’s a part of me that really wishes that I had feelings for JT,” Taylor told the cameras. “Unfortunately, the saying is true: girls want bad boys. Girls want guys who aren’t into them. Girls want guys who treat them like s—.”
Meanwhile, Austen told Whitney, 55, that “Oliviacalling me a piece of s—actually makes me sad.”
“One day she’s like, ‘Oh my God, look, you’re this meme! And I’m going to call you crying.’ And then the next day in front of people, you know, putting on show and telling me I’m a piece of s—,” Austen continued. “You can’t be so hot and cold with me, it’s too much.”

“I used to say I’ll come to New York for a couple years, but Sewing Down South is kind of blowing up,” Craig, 34, said ofhis pillow business. “It’s getting so big, I can’t work remotely anymore. The company is tied to Charleston.”
Madison, 32, pointed out that Paige, 31, didn’t want to move to South Carolina. “If she wasn’t able to move to Charleston with me, we would probably break up,” Craig responded.
After a dance party on the boat, everyone headed back to the hotel to change for dinner. On the bus ride back, Craig asked Taylor what advice she would give to the next woman Shep hooks up with.

“Don’t expect to finish,” the Day Chaser brand rep replied, telling the cameras that she could “probably count on less than three fingers” how many times Shep made her orgasm.
Shep owned up to being a selfish lover. “As long as I get off, I don’t care,” he told his castmates. “I’m not going to go through a whole f—ing production.”
AN UNEXPECTED KISS
“You can’t change, that’s the problem here,” Austen retorted.
Craig implored Shep to tell Austen how he really felt about Austen hooking up with his ex-girlfriend.
“Why don’t you actually tell him what you really think?” Craig said to Shep. “That you’re mad that he hooked up with your girlfriend. But you won’t tell him because you think it makes you a p—-.”
Shep thought that “makes it about me” and insisted, “I’m totally OK.”
Austen said he was OK too, but Shep felt otherwise.
“You’re on Page Six not looking so OK,” Shep said, referring to the article outing Austen’s hookup with Taylor.

Shep believed the story made him look “nice.”
“When you tell Taylor that it’sfun to cheat on her, that means that you’re nice?” Austen wondered.
Austen also told Shep that Taylor “came onto me” and proceeded to recreate their kiss with Whitney. “We can’t let the fact that Taylor and I f—ing made out and moved on,” Austen said.
“You are a total scoundrel,” Shep decided of Austen.
“You are nothing more than a f—ng housewife,” he reiterated.
Then Taylor got up to give a toast about something she wanted to “put to rest,” but fans will have to wait until next week to find out what she hoped to clarify.
