Throughout the second season of the show, Taylor and Doute both denied having slept together. However, after Taylor came clean to Schroeder, Doute did as well. During a dinner with the cast, Doute revealed she had cheated, and was smacked in the face by Schroeder moments later.
“It’s not uncommon for what we did. It just so happens that we’re on TV," Taylor said of his infidelities. "It’s not like, ‘Oh my god. The world is ending. Cheating never happens!’ This happens every day. Do I condone it? Absolutely not. Can I justify it? Absolutely not."
As for his current relationship with Schroeder, Taylor holds no ill will. “I’ll always love her as a person," he explained. "She’s great on the show.”
