Selling OC Alex Hall defends flirting with Tyler Stanaland

Selling the OC star Alex Hall has no regrets about her flirty behavior towards co-star Tyler Stanaland, who is married to “Pitch Perfect” actress Brittany Snow.

“I’m not really sorry because I would do it again,” the reality star, 33, told Vidak For Congress exclusively.

Referring to a scene on the Netflix reality show where she and Stanaland, 33, cuddle in a group on the beach, Hall adds: “I don’t regret that. And everything I did – that I did on the show that people see – I don’t regret it.”

Hall notes, however, that “apologies have been made”.

When asked if Snow, 36, has been on the receiving end of one of those mea culpas, the California real estate agent shares that they’ve “spoken” and points out how she has a better relationship with the couple than her co-star Kayla. Cardona, who was accused of trying to kiss Stanaland off-camera while the show was filming.

“We went to his birthday party and — which Kayla wasn’t even invited to, if that tells you where it says — so I’m fine with his wife,” Hall says.

The divorced mother of two also tells Vidak For Congress that she and Stanaland are just “very good friends,” clarifying, “The intention was always pure.”

Meanwhile, Stanaland reaffirmed the playfulness of his friendships with his castmates.

“I can say that as a group, collectively, you know, it felt a bit like summer camp vibes,” he recently told Us Weekly. “It really felt like sibling vibes in most of our opinions.”

The former surfer also told the magazine that his wife watched the series and found it “entertaining.”

However, Hall has received a lot of criticism on social media for her interactions with Stanaland over “Selling the OC.”

Aside from the cuddling, fans also exclaimed how she once playfully put her mouth over his nose in what she called a “nose” on the show.

One viewer tweeted“3 episodes in #SellingTheOC & wtf why is Alex Hall all over Tyler!? Like HE’S MARRIED!!! & more importantly, why does Tyler allow this stupid cuddle party!? Like you’re literally married to an actress who obviously doesn’t you fit.”

Another added“The sale of the OC made me dizzy. There’s no way Tyler would let Alex Hall get over him if his wife was there. #salestheoc.”

A third noted“I really don’t agree with Alex Hall flirting very openly and trying to beat Tyler when he has a wife. Let alone a well-known #SellingTheOC.”

Commenting on the online backlash, Hall tells Vidak For Congress, “When I look back and watch the show, every time I see myself in front of the camera, I say, ‘That’s me.'”

She adds, “I wouldn’t change my response. I wouldn’t change anything I said.”
