Olivia’s father also allegedly paid more than $500,000 in bribes to the university’s coach, Rick Singer to designate the sisters as athletic prospects for the university’s rowing team. This fabrication is what ultimately led to Olivia and her sister’s acceptance into USC.    

After the admissions scandal was exposed, Olivia’s family came under heavy rebuttal of the public, and Olivia faced public ridicule. Her modeling contracts with brands like Sephora and TRESemmé were terminated and Olivia’s social media accounts were riddled with vehement contempt.  

Following this public humiliation, Olivia disabled comments on her posts, and her future as an influencer was in doubt.
