Career

She has also appeared on MTV's Ex on the Beach in 2018. Selfridge dated Andre Siemers, who also appeared on season five of Are You The One? and later Cory Wharton from Ex on the Beach.

Racism Allegations

In early June 2020, MTV officially cut ties with Selfridge days after racially insensitive tweets she wrote in 2012 resurfaced. The network did not air "Teen Mom OG At Home: Cory & Taylor’s Baby Special" when it was supposed to, and then issued a statement announcing its decision:

"MTV pulled Teen Mom OG At Home: Cory & Taylor’s Baby Special from its Tuesday schedule and is ending our relationship with Taylor Selfridge in light of her past racist statements on social media."

[15][16]

Among the controversial tweets were comments such as, "We have to greet everyone at work but sometimes I won't greet the Black people because they scare me," and "My uncle is dating an Asian.

Aunt Ping please make me sushi."

Selfridge, however, claimed it was her decision to stop doing the special for MTV, not vice versa.[15][16]

Taylor Selfridge wrote in an Instagram message:

"As you guys know already our special didn't air tonight.

I made the decision last week to not film the next season of Teen Mom OG with Cory for the benefit of myself and my daughter."[15][16]

"I don't believe the reality tv lifestyle benefits me any further at this point in my life.

With current events being what they are and reality tv being selective in who they apply rules to or what is considered acceptable behavior, I do not have any further respect."[15][16]

The entire special was filmed by Selfridge and boyfriend Cory Wharton while they were in quarantine amid the coronavirus pandemic.

It was set to show the final weeks of her pregnancy.[15][16]

In October 2019, the couple, who met during season 1 of Ex on the Beach, announced they were expecting their first child together. [9]

Selfridge and Cory Wharton welcomed their first child together, a daughter, on April 22, 2020. Wharton posted a video to his Instagram Story, showing him cradling his baby girl. "Hi," he said in the clip. "Daddy loves you." "She’s here," he added. "Everybody is safe and everybody is healthy. Taylor is fine and the baby is gorgeous."[9][10]

Wharton and Selfridge later posted the first images of their newborn's face and shared her name - Mila Mae Wharton - going on to reveal that she was born at 9:17 p.m., weighing 9 lbs., 5 oz.[9][10]
