dpSouthern Charm alum Taylor Ann Green and her then-boyfriend, Gaston Rojas, appeared to be doing just fine when they set sail as part of the first group of charter guests on Below Deck Season 13. But while the couple looked happy during their appearance, Taylor had another Bravo romance on her mind: matching chief stew Fraser Olender with her friend TJ Dinch from Southern Hospitality.
During a moment with just the ladies, one of the women mused that she was “obsessed with Fraser.” Taylor replied, “You know TJ… that’s why I was like, ‘are you single?’ ‘Cuz our friend’s single, and like, it makes sense.”
Apparently, Taylor isn’t the only person who thinks it “makes sense.” In September 2025, TJ posted a photo on Instagram from aboard a boat, prompting one person to comment, “you and @fraserolender would be hot af.” TJ was also among the Bravolebrities who commented on Fraser’s Instagram post about his health scare, wishing him well.
Like Taylor, Fraser is now single. And while Taylor and Gaston appeared to be on good terms during their Below Deck charter, the couple’s relationship eventually came to an end.
Taylor Ann Green Reveals Why She Split From Gaston Rojas
Taylor confirmed in June that she and Gaston had officially split after almost three years of dating. The former couple began their relationship in 2023, following Taylor’s breakup with Shep Rose.
During a June 2 appearance on The Viall Files podcast (via Bravo), Taylor opened up about the breakup and said she felt a sense of relief.
“My heart is still beating. I’m still alive and well. And honestly, I feel a sense of relief,” she said. “I feel very at peace and good with my decision of walking away.”
Taylor said the split came down to what she described as “fundamental differences.” She explained that an argument prompted her to reconsider the relationship, particularly how she felt Gaston spoke to her.
“We had gotten into a silly argument, and I said, ‘I don’t like the way you speak to me. I don’t feel like you speak to me the way you should speak to someone that you love. And I don’t know if I can do this anymore,'” she recalled.
Taylor said she walked away and moved her belongings out of their home, admitting that she was “pretty torn” but ultimately felt confident in her decision.
She also said she believed Gaston had allegedly cheated on her before their breakup, an accusation he denied. Taylor explained that the allegation came as a shock because loyalty, respect, trust, and honesty had been central themes in their relationship. Looking back, she said she had “ignored the red flags.”
Taylor Ann Green Is Returning to ‘Southern Charm’ Season 12
Taylor’s split from Gaston comes as she prepares to return to Southern Charm for Season 12 after stepping away following Season 10. She was spotted filming with the cast in June 2026, and the upcoming season’s trailer teases an on-screen reunion with her ex Shep.
Southern Charm Season 12 premieres Thursday, November 12, at 9 p.m. ET/PT on Bravo.
For now, Taylor’s Below Deck appearance offers a glimpse of a relationship that looked intact on screen before its eventual end — and a potential Bravo match that she seems eager to make happen. Whether Fraser and TJ could become more than a fan-favorite fantasy remains to be seen.
Below Deck airs on Mondays at 8 p.m. ET/PT on Bravo.
