“Southern Charm” star Austen Kroll is sharing his theory about his castmate, Shep Rose‘s relationship with his ex-girlfriend, Sienna Evans.
During a January 2025 interview on “The Chicks in the Office” podcast, Kroll noted that Rose introduced “Southern Charm” fans to Evans, who lives in the Bahamas, while they were dating during the show’s 10th season. Kroll said that he found the relationship “bizarre.” He also said he did not think Rose could have a successful long-distance relationship.
“I’m like ‘Shep, you are too much of a horn dog to not be able to see someone — what you are going to see her like once a month and you think you are going to be a good little boy?'” said Kroll during the interview.
Kroll also said he and his co-star Craig Conover believe Rose tried to get serious with Evans because of his 2022 breakup with Taylor Ann Green.
“Shep had this relationship with Taylor and I think it was the first time in his life that he really had someone like he loved and cared about. And he had a partner. He messed up. And they broke up. But I think he wanted that since,” said Kroll during the podcast episode. “So I think he found that girl, and he wanted a connection again so bad that he was like ‘Maybe it’s supposed to be with her.’ So he kind of dove into this thing, where it probably should have just been a ‘Hey, like I met this girl on Raya and she flew in, and we had some fun times. And that’s it.'”
Shep Rose Said He & Sienna Evans Took a Break Before They Officially Split
During a December 2024 interview on Tamra Judge and Teddi Mellencamp‘s podcast, “Two Ts In a Pod,” Rose shared that he and Evans took a break prior to their official split. According to Rose, he was unhappy with Evans because she asked him to book her flight for Linville, North Carolina the day before she was supposed to depart, even though she promised to do so. He said he booked her the flight, but told her he was upset about the situation after they spent time together.
“I said, ‘I really need to get this off my chest. By the way, I had a great time this weekend. But I need to say this, I just don’t appreciate the way that was handled,’” said Rose during the interview. “‘And you know, I made a lot of plans and I took care of everything. You don’t have to meet me even half way, just meet me somewhere in the middle or in the bell curve somewhere. Because I’m not a desperate man who is flying girls around. And I bragged to my family and friends how successful and entrepreneurial you are.’”
Rose said that Evans responded in an “indignant” manner. According to Rose, “She said ‘Where I come from the man takes care of everything.'”
“I was like ‘Maybe we should take a step back.’ And she was like, ‘Yeah. Okay,’” continued Rose.
Rose then said Evans reached out to him to see if he would like to get back together, much to his delight. He clarified that he is currently single.
Shep Rose Gave an Update on Where He Stands With Taylor Ann Green
In a January 2025 interview with ETalk, Rose gave an update on where he stands with Green.
“Taylor doesn’t want to talk to me,” said Rose to the publication.
Rose said he believes Green’s boyfriend, Gaston Rojas, would prefer if she did not interact with him.
“I think she wants to honor her relationship,” said Rose during the interview.
He then said he just wants to be “friendly” with his ex-girlfriend. In addition, Rose said he hopes “the best for her.”
