She dated Craig for three years, but they broke up in 2017 due to their differences and lack of compatibility. She then started dating Metul Shah, an anesthesiologist, in 2018.

Cox came with a lawsuit on September 19, 2022: Cox files a lawsuit against Olindo for breach of contract, fraud, defamation and more, claiming that Olindo used deceptive tactics to maintain control of the business, misappropriate funds and prevent her from landing a new job.
