Southern Charm star is LEAVING the show after a 'wild' five years

Southern Charm star Taylor Ann Green made a bittersweet announcement on Monday after appearing in four consecutive seasons of the Bravo reality show set in South Carolina.

'After a lot of conversations and thought this past year, it is with a heavy but peaceful heart to announce that I will be stepping away from Southern Charm next year,' the 30-year-old reality star - who boasts 247K social media followers - wrote on Instagram.

'These past five years with NBC and Bravo have been some of the most crazy but exciting times of my life. I will forever be thankful to the network, production teams, Bravo family and all the fans for ultimately cheering me on to where I am today. A wild rollercoaster but an incredible one to say the least.'

Taylor originally joined Bryan Kestner and Whitney Sudler-Smith's Charleston-set series in 2020 as a 'friend' in season seven before becoming a full-time cast member for seasons eight, nine, and 10.

Southern Charm viewers watched as Green navigated romantic relationships with her co-star Shep Rose and suffered the loss of her brother Richard Worthington 'Worth' Green, at age 36, from an accidental fentanyl overdose in 2023.

Audiences just saw the Appalachian State University grad glam up for the 10th season reunion, which concluded April 3.

'Thank you again to everyone who has loved and supported me throughout this journey and another grand cheers to the greatest ones out there @nbc @bravotv @haymaker.east & @bravoandy for an exceptional reality TV ride,' Green concluded her post.

'Things are going really well' between Taylor and her boyfriend since September 2023, BD territory manager Gaston Rojas.

'I have never been in a relationship that I feel so secure,' Green gushed on the April 2nd episode of the Live, Laugh, Lies podcast.

'I've been in really healthy relationships before, but there was always something where I felt kind of anxious. You know, when we're not together, does he think about me? Is he looking at some other girl's Instagram page?
