Craig Conover Reveals He Froze His Sperm Before Paige DeSorbo Breakup

Andy Cohen is finally weighing in on Paige DeSorbo and Craig Conover's shocking breakup.

One week after the Bravo stars ended their three-year relationship, the Watch What Happens Live host revealed his honest thoughts about the surprising split—and what possibly led to it.

"They are both in the middle of an incredible amount of success, both of them," Andy noted on the Jan. 6 episode of his Andy Cohen Live SiriusXM radio show. "He's just opened a restaurant in Charleston, he's got this business, he's got a store in Nashville, he's got a place in Charleston."

Andy went on to note that Paige is "absolutely murdering it, killing it" on her and podcast co-host Hannah Berner's Giggly Squad live tour around the country.

However, Andy revealed the recent clue that caused him to be suspicious about a potential breakup in the Summer House and Southern Charm stars' futures.

"I was at the Southern Charm premiere party, she wasn't there," the 56-year-old recalled. "She wasn't at his place in New York. There have been a few events that she hasn't [attended], she's just so busy."

Plus, Andy noted of the distance between the two stars, "I just think the more and more that stuff starts to happen, you worry that it causes a strain or whatever. Listen, we still don't totally know have a reason, so more to come on that, but I was very sad about that. Everybody loved them."

But in the wake of the separation, Andy has been left with one very important question.

"Who's the first couple of Bravo now?" he asked co-host John Hill. "They were really the first couple of Bravo. Everyone was rooting for them. I think it's an open position."

After Paige announced the split during her Dec. 30 podcast episode, the 32-year-old shot down rumors of cheating between her and her ex and insisted the parting of ways was amicable.

“No one did anything. It wasn’t a bad thing,” she noted. “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.”

“I think he is one of the best people I’ve met in my entire life,” Paige continued of Craig, who has yet to speak out publicly about the reason for the breakup. “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.”
