Conner passed away on January 30, though no official cause of death has yet been disclosed.
However, the "kind and selfless soul," who had previously been detained for drug offences and drunk driving, received a deluge of online tributes.
In the days leading up to his funeral on Sunday, Olivia, her parents Garry and Robin, and her maternal grandparents Heyward and Barbara consoled one another.
Mourners gathered outside the chapel in Mount Pleasant, South Carolina, amid the family tragedy, bringing flowers and giving each other hugs. At one point, Olivia was spotted alone in a white Mercedes and appeared upset.
When Conner's body was to be viewed, other distraught family members piled into one car and drove there.
Thomas Ravenel, a former member of Southern Charm, recently shared the news of Conner's passing while penning an emotional tribute to the 32-year old.
"RIP Conner Flowers 2/9/1990-1/30/2023 Words can't rightfully describe how rare and remarkable you were," he wrote on Feb. 1, according to Daily Mail.
He continued;
"You will be terribly missed by those to whom you were so kind and selfless. My sincerest sympathies to your broken-hearted family," Thomas captioned the post, which featured photos of the two having a glass of wine and golfing."
In a similar vein, Olivia's other co-stars have turned to social media to beg for discretion during this trying time for the family.
Taylor Ann Green posted a message on her Instagram story saying,
"Privacy is number one. Please keep in mind that this is a heartbreaking and grieving time for them. Sending all the love and prayers to the family as they continue to heal is the only appropriate thing to do in this moment."
Instead of flowers for the forthcoming funeral services, the Flowers family has asked that donations be made in Conner's honour to lymedisease.org and pethelpers.org.
Fans have expressed their condolences under Olivia's most recent Instagram post, but the 30-year-old has not yet commented on her brother's passing.
The two siblings appeared to have a close bond because they frequently displayed brotherly and sisterly affection for one another on social media.
