The 23-year-old reality star has praised her show for the support they offer and suggested that although she has had issues with online trolls, bosses of the E4 programme "always" have "someone there" if anyone has a problem.
Speaking on 'Heart Breakfast', Olivia said: "I think there's always going to be downsides to it. I personally, from 'Made in Chelsea', they've always got someone there for you to talk to.
"But I think it's also social media. There are so many different things that can cause this kind of thing like I think it's very awful and very sad but yeah, it can be very stressful.
"I think social media has a big part to play in a lot of stuff and I think the trolls are slightly out of control sometimes
"There's always people that you can. I mean I've had ups and downs and I've always found that there's someone there. It's like a peculiar sort of family - which is amazing."
Olivia admitted that while she can only speak for her own show, she has "never felt alone" and insisted she always has someone to turn to.
She added: "Speaking only from 'Made In Chelsea' because that's all I know but they are very hands on when it comes to anything like that. I've never felt alone or in a situation where I've had no one to turn to."
Olivia's comments come after former 'Love Island' star Mike Thalassitis, 26, was found dead in woodland near his home in Essex on Friday (15.03.19), leading to some reality stars demanding better after-care once contestants leave reality shows.
Former 'Love Island' star Dom Lever tweeted: "You get a psychological evaluation before and after you go on the show but hands down once you are done on the show you don't get any support unless you're number one (sic)"
But a 'Love Island' spokesperson has insisted the show takes its after-care "very seriously".
They said: "Care for our Islanders is a process the show takes very seriously and is a continuous process for all those taking part in the show.
"We ensure that all of our contributors are able to access psychological support before, during and after appearing on the show.
"The programme will always provide ongoing support when needed and where appropriate."
