Olivia Flowers reveals new details about her boyfriend
During Part 2 of the reunion, which aired on January 18, host Andy Cohen read a viewer-submitted question that wanted Olivia to spill the tea on her man.
Olivia immediately chuckled and blushed about her new relationship before saying, “His name is Alex.” When Andy asked if he lived in The Holy City, she replied, “He lives in Dallas. I took Madison’s advice on looking outside of Charleston.”

Right after, Olivia shared with the group that Austen met Alex in November during a tropical vacation with friends, where she encouraged her now-boyfriend to be “cordial” with her ex.
However, Olivia joked that she soon regretted her friendly suggestion. “Then four hours later, I look, and they’re driving up together in a golf cart, and I’m like, ‘What the hell did I just say?’”
With that in mind, Andy asked Olivia if she had given “Austen a pass and not [Taylor Ann Green]” considering their lingering drama.
As for her response? Olivia said: “I can understand why people might say that, but watching everything back, I’ve been pulling away because… [Taylor] was lying to my face. I felt it, and Austen stepped in at a time where I was very vulnerable and broken, and I bonded with him, and there were unresolved feelings there.”
Who is Olivia Flowers’ boyfriend, Alex?
Last month during an appearance on the Not Skinny But Not Fat podcast, Oliva revealed more tidbits about Alex, including his profession and how long they’ve been dating.
Alex currently works in finance, and he and Olivia have been in a relationship for “seven months.” While on the podcast, Oliva shared that she initially wanted to keep their connection private. "I didn't really talk about him much; I wanted to see how it went first,” she said.
That wasn’t the only exciting thing that Oliva revealed about Alex. When asked if she thought that Alex could be "the one” for her, Olivia happily responded, "So far, yeah.”
