Paige Clarifies Her and Craig's Breakup Timeline and Makes a Declaration on Cheating Rumors
Summer House's Paige DeSorbo shared new insight into her split from Craig Conover.
Paige DeSorbo is setting the record straight regarding recent rumors about her split from Craig Conover.
The Summer House-mate addressed the timeline of their breakup and the speculation that she cheated on Craig during the February 3 episode of her and Hannah Berner's podcast, Giggly Squad.
First, she denied that there was any sort of infidelity on her part.
"I'm saying this here and now, and then I'm never saying it again. OK? I never in the three years that I dated my ex-boyfriend, ever physically cheated on him, emotionally cheated on him — can you mentally cheat on him? I don't know, but I didn't," Paige said.
When did Paige DeSorbo and Craig Conover break up?
Though Paige announced the split on the December 30 episode of her podcast, she revealed that the pair actually "broke up on Thanksgiving weekend" (in November 2024).
Why did Paige and Craig wait to announce their breakup?
According to Paige, Craig was "processing in his own way," so the two decided to wait to publicize the breakup.
"Christmas came and went. Then, I saw that my ex-boyfriend was on a trip presenting himself as single, and I said 'Here we go, we're ready to announce,'" she explained. "I then texted him and said whilst he was on his trip that 'I'm going to say something on Giggly Squad and we can both start moving forward, it's been a month now.' My text went unanswered, fine."
Paige clarifies details about her and Craig's split
When Paige was spotted attending a Philadelphia Eagles game with Joe D'Amelio, it had been more than a month since she had split from Craig. Because the split had just been announced, though, stories began to take off that infidelity had played a role.
"The narrative just took a turn really quickly that I had cheated, that I broke up with him like a week ago, moved on with some new guy," she said on the February 3 podcast episode. "Let me say this here and now, I did not move on with some new guy."
Paige continued, "It was a full month that we were broken up and I didn't say anything. Because, even though we are public, there are certain things that I think should remain private. ... So, once he was on a trip and being single. ... That is when I announced that we had our breakup."
As she had said before, there was no major event that led to the split.
"Any of the other baseless rumors that have my name in them, they are not true," Paige said. "When you're in a relationship, things happen in your relationship. You take inventory of them, you evaluate, and then you decide to go forth with that relationship. And that's what I did. I decided that I didn't want to go forth with that relationship. No one was blindsided, no one was cheated on."
