‘Big Brother’ Champion Taylor Hale Claims Former Miss USA Vice President Sexually Harassed Her
During his appearance on ‘Reality Steve’ podcast, the beauty queen reveals that Max Sebrechts made unwanted advances toward her the morning after she competed in the 2021 Miss USA pageant.
AceShowbiz -Season 24 of “Big Brother” winner Taylor Hale made shocking accusations against Miss USA Organization’s former vice president Max Sebrechts. During his appearance on “Reality Steve” podcast, the beauty queen claimed that Sebrechts sexually harassed her the morning after she competed in the 2021 Miss USA pageant.
“He DMs me on Instagram and says, you did a good job, so proud of you,” Hale recalled. She went on to say, “He invites me to the presidential suite. I decline.”
The former Miss Michigan USA then shared that they ran into each other in a hotel lobby while she was carrying a “big and heavy” stage costume. The 42-year-old allegedly offered to help carry the garment to her room and she accepted.
“There was a protocol in place where if you were being escorted to your room, the person who was escorting you would stop at the elevator bank and watch you go down the hallway to your room,” she explained. “He did not stop at the elevator bank, he continued to go into the room.” After placing the costume in the room in the entry corridor, Sebrechts “walked all the way in and proceeded to sit down, have a conversation with me.”
Hale, who is the first black woman to win a non-celebrity edition of the CBS show, said that while she didn’t find Sebrechts’ actions at this point to be particularly “threatening,” she was “definitely uncomfortable, like he should not have been lingering.” The 27-year-old added, “And then when he stood up he gave me some very sexually intimate types of hugs, like they were very intimate, pretty sexual.”
“He’s whispering in my ear telling me you know, I’m so beautiful, so gorgeous. He kisses the corner of my mouth trying to play it off like it’s my cheek and I just, I’m just frozen. I’m not doing anything but he’s clearly waiting for me to make the next move. He does this twice and then finally I get him to leave the room,” she revealed.
Sebrechts has yet to comment on Hale’s allegations.
