After breaking up with the Summer House-mate in November 2024, the Southern Charm-er shared the latest on his romantic life on the March 27 episode of Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen.

"Are you dating?" host Andy Cohen asked the Sewing Down South founder. 

"I am, and I'm really happy," Craig gushed. When asked if he was dating just one person or more, Craig said that he's locked in on one special lady.

"You know, when I date, I tend to date only one person at a time, so I've been seeing someone," he continued. "And I've been reminded that the universe works in crazy ways, and that everything happens for a reason."

Who is Craig Conover dating?

Craig refrained from sharing any details about the new person in his life, except he did confirm that it's not one of his fellow Southern Charm castmates. "It's not Salley [Carson]," he said on WWHL, since Salley had previously told The Daily Dish that the "door is open" for the two in light of both of their recent splits.

While confirming her breakup from Craig on the December 30 episode of her podcast, Paige said that the two ultimately wanted different things from their relationship.

Paige is based in New York City, while Craig is in Charleston. He expressed a desire to get married and have kids sooner rather than later (though he said he was willing to wait on Southern Charm Season 10), while she wanted to focus on her podcast tour.

In the months since the split was announced, both Craig and Paige have shared their perspectives on the Southern Charm After Show and the Summer House After Show, respectively.

"Looking back on it now, probably from the jump, did we have great communication? Probably not," Paige said on the Summer House After Show about how there were bigger cracks in their relationship than she may have initially realized. "I think Craig very much gave me like the... because I am more straightforward and stern and I don't sugarcoat as much, it was like, 'You're harsh.' So I would kind of have to stay more quiet when he would voice his opinions because he would always take it as a personal attack."

For his part, Craig lamented about the fact that his relationships with Paige and Naomie Olindo both ended at around the three-year mark.

“I know, but that’s my limit, I guess,” Craig told castmate Madison LeCroy on the Southern Charm After Show. “At three years, the three-year itch. They just disappear.”
