Craig Conover Shares How Paige DeSorbo Is Doing After “Scary” Panic Attack
Paige DeSorbo and Craig Conover are entering a season of change.
The Summer House star recently confirmed, she and the Southern Charm star have broken up after three years together. As what for what led to their split?
Noting that entering her 30s has been “very transformative,” Paige, 32, explained that both she and Craig, 35, have grown and changed during their yearslong romance.
"No one did anything, it wasn’t, like, a bad thing," she told cohost Hannah Berner during the Dec. 30 of their Giggly Squad podcast. "I think we both were just being really mature and saying what we want and what we didn’t want. And I think that’s extremely powerful to be able to voice how you’re feeling in real time and what you want for your future.”
All in all, Paige has “so much love and respect for Craig” even after their breakup.
“I think he is one of the best people I’ve met in my entire life,” she continued. “I will remain the biggest fan of him and want the best for him, and he truly will get the best because he is the best.”
Paige also went on to note that her breakup from the fellow Bravo star, who hasn’t commented publicly on the matter yet, “was just the right decision,” adding that it’s “a very sad thing.”
She further slammed rumors that the split announcement was timed closer to the premieres of their respective shows. (Southern Charm is currently airing its 10th season while Summer House returns for season 9 in February.)
“No one can tell me what to do,” she explained. “The network has power, but they don’t have that much power…Rumors of us breaking up months ago—again, also not a real thing.”
As Paige also stressed, her news comes after the two took some time to deal with the matter on their accord.

“We both gave each other a little time to deal with it on our own, in private, with our family and friends,” she noted, “and now I feel like it is appropriate to be able to tell people.”
“He’s definitely the best boyfriend I’ve ever had. Like, I can truly say that,” Paige shared. “He was a great boyfriend, and he did everything correct, and he never made me feel insecure or anything like that, so it almost is harder when no one’s done anything to be mad about, and that’s hard.”
As she later added, “I love him and I think he loves me. I think we will remain friends."
