Lala Kent revealed during a recent appearance on Amazon Live last week that The Real Housewives of Orange County cast member Taylor Armstrong did not appreciate the behavior of Southern Charm stars Shep Rose and Austen Kroll at BravoCon.

After being asked if she was annoyed by any particular Bravolebrities at the fan event earlier this month, the Vanderpump Rules star, 33, looked back on the Bravo Awards, when she said Taylor, 52, was forced to put Shep, 43, and Austen, 36, in check numerous times due to their “obnoxious” antics.

“Taylor Armstrong was behind me and then Shep was behind her with I think Austen. And they were being a little bit rowdy, the Southern Charm boys,” Lala recalled during her November 13 appearance on Amazon Live, via Heavy. “Taylor was not having it.”

“I could hear her behind me putting them in check. Every five minutes. It was a lot,” she continued. “She was like, ‘I have had it, I have had it. If they think — I’m about to pull some Oklahoma on their you-know-what. I could be their mother!’ I was like, ‘Tell them Tay. It’s obnoxious.’”

As Southern Charm fans may have heard, Shep was also accused of being an annoyance to Brynn Whitfield, 36, of The Real Housewives of New York City, whom he had been flirting with before the event.

On an episode of his radio show, Andy Cohen Live, last week, Andy Cohen, 55, explained to his listeners why he believed Shep and Brynn were ultimately not a match.

“I think Shep is like a big, drunk Golden Retriever,” Andy noted. “He’s a big kind of tipsy Golden Retriever and I think she was like, ‘This is not, this is not gonna happen.’ I think on the way over to the Bravo Awards, he started asking her about whether they should procreate or have a baby. So that didn’t happen.”

Prior to the event, Brynn appeared on Watch What Happens Live, where she admitted to having a romantic interest in Shep.

“I like Southern Charm. I’m from Indiana. Midwest and the down south, we play it dirty,” she shared.

And after seeing the clip on Instagram, Shep said, “That’s certainly nice to hear. Thanks for thinking of me Brynn.”

Southern Charm season nine airs Thursdays at 9/8c on Bravo.
