Why Paige DeSorbo Was "Thankful" Jesse Solomon Flirted with Her
Plus, hear Amanda Batula explain why she was so upset that Kyle Cooke called out the flirting in front of Craig Conover.
Kyle Cooke jokingly called out Jesse Solomon for "how hard" he was "hitting on" Paige DeSorbo the first few weekends in the Hamptons on Season 8, Episode 6 of Summer House (which aired March 28). The kicker? Paige's boyfriend, Craig Conover, was present for said call-out.
Paige, however, revealed on the subsequent episode of the Summer House After Show that she wasn't upset with Kyle or Jesse.
Why was Paige DeSorbo grateful Jesse Solomon flirted with her?
"I, then and now, still wasn't mad at Kyle for doing that," Paige said on the Summer House After Show of Kyle outing Jesse's flirting to Craig. "Craig should know that other people hit on me. That's something he should know daily."
Furthermore, Paige didn't mind the flirting herself. As she put it, "If no one hit on me all summer, I would cry. Like, I'd pack it in. I'd be like, 'That's it, it's over for me, I've hit 31, and I'm done.' So, I'm thankful. I was like, 'Oh my god, thanks!'"

Why did Kyle Cooke call out Jesse flirting with Paige?
Although Paige wasn't mad at Kyle for unabashedly bringing up Jesse's flirtatious behavior during a dinner with the rest of the cast (and Craig), the same couldn't be said for Kyle's wife, Amanda Batula.
Reflecting on both his decision to call out Jesse as well as Amanda's response, Kyle said on the Summer House After Show, "I just know that Paige and Craig are comfortable and confident in their relationship and I just thought I'd break the ice. And I didn't expect the only person to be upset to be Amanda. But life is unpredictable."
