“Southern Women Don’t Do That”: Patricia Altschul Blasts Taylor for Sending Nude to Whitney, Claims It Was ‘Inappropriate’ and ‘Too Friendly’ for Comfort

In a jaw-dropping revelation sure to ignite chaos in Charleston, Southern Charm grande dame Patricia Altschul is dropping a bombshell about her son Whitney Sudler-Smith and castmate Taylor Ann Green — and it’s one that could shatter friendships and shake the group to its core.

During a private conversation caught on camera, Patricia didn’t hold back when asked about Whitney’s rumored connection with Taylor. With a signature cocktail in hand and a raised brow, she delivered the line that set Bravo fans ablaze:

“She sent him a nude. A full-on, no-clothes, very friendly kind of photo.”

More Than Just a Flirtation?

Patricia’s insinuation wasn’t vague — she made it clear she believes Taylor’s intentions went beyond harmless fun.

“Let’s just say it wasn’t a ‘hey, buddy’ selfie,” Patricia quipped. “It was... suggestive. And from what I saw, not the kind of thing you send someone you’re ‘just friends’ with.”

 

The comment left castmates — and viewers — stunned. The idea that Taylor may have crossed a line with Whitney is made even more scandalous by her close friendship with his ex, Naomie Olindo, and her already-complicated dating history with Shep Rose.

“Taylor Knew What She Was Doing”

According to Patricia, Taylor knew exactly what she was doing when she sent the picture — and it’s not the first time she’s questioned Taylor’s boundaries.

“She’s charming, yes. But that charm can be a bit... calculated,” Patricia added. “I’m not saying she’s a bad girl. But she’s certainly not shy.”

Sources close to production say Patricia brought up the incident during a tense dinner scene that will air later this season — and Whitney, typically tight-lipped, reportedly didn’t deny the photo’s existence.

Fallout Incoming?

The cast has already been circling the rumor mill this season, but this latest accusation is poised to turn whispers into a full-blown feud. Naomie is said to be blindsided, while Shep — who’s been on rocky terms with Taylor since their breakup — is “deeply unsettled,” according to insiders.

As for Taylor? She’s remained mostly silent, though a cryptic Instagram Story last week read: “Let people believe what they want. I’m done explaining.”

One thing’s certain: Patricia doesn’t stir the pot without reason — and when she speaks, Charleston listens.
