Olivia Culpo brings fiancé Christian McCaffrey to one of her favorite RI restaurants

For his first visit to Twin Oaks in Cranston, San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey couldn't have asked for a better guide to one of Rhode Island's most well-known restaurants: his fiancée and reality star Olivia Culpo.

"It was his first time at Twin Oaks," owner Susan Deangelus Valles said. "Olivia gave him a tour of the whole restaurant."

Culpo is as much of a regular at Twin Oaks as any Rhode Islander who has moved to Los Angeles can be. She has repeatedly talked about how much she loves the chicken parmesan, and her family is friends with the Deangelus family. After winning Miss Universe, she told Rhode Island Monthly that the Deangelus family went to Las Vegas with her for the Miss America pageant.

It was the family connection that brought her and McCaffrey to Twin Oaks on Sunday.

"We had a shower for my daughter Daria yesterday and both Olivia and Christian attended," Deangelus Valles said. "Also Olivia’s mom."

Culpo, McCaffrey's engagement

McCaffrey and Culpo have been together since 2019, and got engaged on April 2, 2023.

Last July, they celebrated their engagement in Rhode Island and in October, Culpo announced on TikTok that they are planning to get married in Lil' Rhody.

"I have to say, there is a lot of pride from our little state," she said in the video. "This is the smallest state in the country ... so people think Rhode Island is an island or some people think it's part of New York. It's the best state in the entire world, and I'm getting married here."

The exact location of their wedding has not been announced.

Based on Culpo's Instagram stories, it appears that Twin Oaks isn't their only stop, and that they were also doing some wedding planning during the visit. In her stories, she posted a photo of her and McCaffrey tasting wedding cakes.
