Flowers opened up about their first meeting while talking to The Knot magazine in April 2025. She revealed that she was running late for a friend's wedding when Williams helped her to find a seat. She said:
“He came up and asked if he could walk me down the aisle. I made a corny joke, like, ‘It’s a little too soon for that.’ At the reception, he asked me to dance and the rest is history.”
Alex proposed to Olivia on September 2024 in the Meadow Terrace Suite at JW Marriott Essex House in New York City.
Their engagement was announced in October 2024.
The duo spoke about their engagement with PEOPLE magazine sharing finer details about the moment.

But Williams surprised her by calling her parents and nine of her friends to be there to share this happy moment.
Alex popped the question with a four-carat diamond ring from Nicole Rose Jewelry. The ring is set on an 18K yellow gold band which makes the look “classic, simple and elegant.”
Olivia also talked about her wedding preparations to US Weekly in December 2024 where she called the process “overwhelming”.
She admitted that the couple are in engagement bliss at the moment and she has just” barely scraped the surface” of what needs to be done.
Speaking with Sophisticated magazine for their Spring/Summer issue Flowers stated that they are planning their wedding as a team.
She even spoke about her indecisiveness in terms of planning. She stated that planning their wedding has shown her how indecisive she can be.
Olivia has previously been in a relationship with Southern Charm co-star Austen Kroll. She joined the reality show in its eighth instalment.
Her break up with Austen was the highlight of the next season. She was also on bad terms with Taylor Ann Green after Kroll confessed to kissing her.

Flowers is working on her own YouTube show Off-season with Olivia Flowers.
