The tragic news broke last summer when the brother of Southern Charm star Taylor Ann Green, Richard Worthington Green, passed away from an accidental drug overdose in his North Carolina home. The toxicology report revealed that he was found dead in his bedroom surrounded by drug paraphernalia at just 36 years old.
The Green family has chosen to mourn Worth’s death in silence, with Taylor and her family releasing a joint statement a week after the tragic incident. They described Worth as a vibrant, caring individual who brought love and laughter to all those around him. The family expressed their deep sorrow and peace knowing that Worth is now in the arms of their Heavenly Father.
Taylor’s sister, Catie King, was the first family member to speak out about their beloved brother’s passing. She shared heartfelt messages and photos of Worth on social media, expressing her love and appreciation for him.
Taylor Ann Green was introduced to fans of the reality TV show Southern Charm during its 7th season. At the time, she was dating Shep Rose, with their relationship playing out on screen. Despite keeping their romance under wraps initially, they eventually went public in 2020 before announcing their split in 2022.
The couple’s split was mired in controversy, with Taylor Ann accusing Shep of disrespectful behavior during their relationship. She revealed that she felt reduced to just a number and expressed her hurt and frustration.
Shep, in response, admitted to still loving Taylor Ann and shared that he may not be the best partner for her due to differing views on certain issues. While the future of their relationship remains uncertain, Shep expressed his deep love and admiration for Taylor Ann.
In the wake of this tragic loss, those affected by substance abuse or mental health issues are encouraged to seek help. Organizations like the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) are available to provide support and assistance to those in need.
