Wait, Olivia Flowers would still be on Southern Charm if it wasn’t for her fiance?!
Wait, Olivia Flowers would still be on Southern Charm if it wasn’t for her fiance?!
Olivia Flowers has left a huge hole on Southern Charm after not returning this season. She just got engaged to her fiance, but he’s one of the reasons she wasn’t invited back to the show.
It was a really difficult last season for Olivia Flowers. Her brother, Conner Flowers, died while cameras were rolling on Southern Charm, and she argued with Taylor, who remains on the series.
Olivia Flowers wasn’t invited back to Southern Charm
Olivia confirmed her exit from the Bravo show during an episode of Scheananigans with Scheana Shay in July. “I’m not on this new season,” she told the Vanderpump Rules star, adding it “wasn’t my choice.”
Despite being a fan favorite and having two main storylines last season, producers called her up to fire her just a few weeks before filming. “I was super bummed,” Flowers said about the career change.
She made it clear that she disagreed with the decision and said: “The production company was just like, ‘You don’t really seem to be in Charleston that much. We’re noticing on your Instagram you’re in Texas.”
She said one reason was because of her fiance
Olivia spoke out about how one reason she wasn’t brought back to Southern Charm was because of her fiance living in Dallas. All the cast members live in Charleston, and anyone outside of that? Not invited.
She claims producers also told her, “You’ve got this new boyfriend, and it just seems like you’re choosing a different path.” However, she didn’t feel she was choosing another path at all.
Olivia continued: “I’m just kinda living my life. My parents had just moved to Texas, and the boyfriend thing just happened very randomly. I’m really glad… like, he was the best part that came out of that year.”
“But had I known it was working against me or making people think I was choosing a different path? I wish there had been more communication there,” she added of their decision.
Now, she’s hosting her own YouTube web series with Pump Rules star Ally Lewber and planning her wedding. Olivia has also been regularly chatting to her former co-stars, such as Kathryn Dennis.
