Season 2

Taylor first appeared in Season 2 and was introduced as Haley's sister but Nathan recalled her from somewhere. He soon realised that she had been the first girl he had sex with and that could only mean trouble. She forced Nathan to let her stay at his and Haley's home and began to understand that her sister was falling for Chris Keller. She at first pretended to be her sister and chatted several times with him before telling him to leave Haley and Nathan alone when she realised what was going on. Her efforts were fruitless as Haley later went on tour with Chris, leaving Nathan behind. When Nathan discovered some e-mails from Haley to Chris, he threw Taylor out to protect himself.

Nathan later met her in a bar where she had become a waitress/dancer. She seduced him to make him realise that he still loved Haley. They both promised to sort their lives out. Taylor, like most of Haley's family wasn't at Haley and Nathan's second wedding and her current whereabouts are unknown.

Trivia

• Taylor is 3/4 years older than Haley, since when Haley was a freshman, Taylor was a senior.

• Taylor has a scorpion lower-back tattoo which inspired Haley to have a lower-back tattoo: 23, Nathan's number. She later told Haley that the scorpion was a representation of herself as it commits suicide when it's caught in the fire, just like she always makes things worse whenever she's in trouble.

• She signed Lucas Scott's yearbook with "Lucas, you know you want me".

• Though McKeon and Bethany Joy Galeotti (Haley) play sisters on One Tree Hill, both actresses also appeared on the CBS soap opera Guiding Light.
