Olivia Flowers is a bride-to-be!
The “Southern Charm” alum revealed her engagement to People on Thursday, with fiancé Alex Williams breaking down the New York City proposal.
After flying from their Texas home to South Carolina to ask permission from Flowers’ parents to marry her, he met her in Manhattan — where he got down on one knee on Sept. 25.

“I got her brand manager involved and made her think it was a photoshoot for the hotel,” Williams said of the milestone moment.
“He is my biggest hype man when it comes to helping me with content so this didn’t seem weird to me, just like a sweet gesture,” Flowers told the outlet.
“I was in work mode,” the former reality star continued. “Next thing I know, Alex is getting a box out of his sports coat and dropping a knee.”

Flowers, who had been looking for the “best angles for photos in the room” dropped her phone when presented with a four-carat diamond engagement ring.
“Alex said, ‘Olivia Barbara Ellen Flowers. You’re the girl of my dreams. Became the love of my life. And I’d like to ask will you marry me?'” she recalled.
The duo met in May 2023, with Flowers sharing the story on their anniversary the following year.

“After arriving late to a wedding (& tripping up the church stairs) I was met by a handsome usher to take me to my seat,” she wrote via Instagram in May. “Later, that same usher asked my date (my dad) if he could dance with me.”
The former Bravolebrity concluded, “A year later and we’re still dancing (and tripping up stairs). Cheers to stage 5 clinging.”
While Flowers was a cast member of “Southern Charm” when she and Williams crossed paths, she confirmed in July that she will not be appearing on its upcoming 10th season.
Producers believed she was choosing a “different path” with her Texas-based boyfriend.Olivia Flowers/Instagram

The exit was not her choice, Flowers told “Scheananigans With Scheana Shay” podcast listeners.
“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, you’ve got this new boyfriend, and it just seems like you’re choosing a different path,'” she claimed of the firing.
The “bummed” influencer had been hoping for a chance to “be [her]self and explore” since Season 9 focused heavily on her brother Conner’s shock passing in January 2023 at age 32.
