Olivia had to say goodbye to the cast and crew before her second season on Pawn Stars came to an end. She was fired after the National Enquirer leaked photographs from a shoot she did for SuicideGirls, a website and community promoting nude and pinup photography.
And it sounds like Pawn Stars head honcho Rick Harrison didn't have much of a say in the decision. According to Fox News, he offered Olivia the opportunity to continue working for the Gold & Silver Pawn Shop — as long as she didn't appear in front of the cameras.
"I never fired her. She’s out doing her own thing now. It's just the production company did not want her working there anymore. What she does in her personal life ... is her business," Rick told Fox News.

Olivia said that she was too shocked to ask why she had to leave.
"I don't have the actual reason as to why I am not a part of the show anymore. They didn't state it, and I didn't ask — I was just in such shock I didn't think to ask," Olivia told Fox News.
As Olivia confirmed, she and the crew of the Gold & Silver Pawn Shop parted ways on amicable terms, with her deciding not to work there anymore.

Several petitions were launched on Change.org in the wake of Olivia's firing from Pawn Stars to bring her back. None of them were successful.
