The French expat also wanted to focus on her relationship with Shah. "She's seen what reality television can do to relationships and isn't interested in exposing herself again to that kind of scrutiny," another source said. "She's got a great partner in Metul. They are very much in love and there's no reason to mess with that."
Olindo first appeared on Southern Charm as a recurring cast member in season 3, when she was dating star Craig Conover. She was promoted to a full-time star with season 6, after she and Conover, 32, called it quits.
