Craig Conover has yet to confirm the identity of his new girlfriend after sharing that he was seeing someone on Watch What Happens Live at the end of last month. But he continues to be spotted with Natalie Buffett.
As ex-girlfriend Paige DeSorbo, 32, shed more light on what led up to their late 2024 split on Wednesday’s episode of Summer House, the 36-year-old Southern Charm cast member stepped out with Natalie, 27, in Charleston, South Carolina.
In a photo shared by Bravo and Cocktails on Instagram on April 9, an insider revealed that Craig and Natalie had visited a Harris Teeter grocery store.
As Craig seemingly focuses his attention on Natalie, Paige continues to accuse him of failing to support her career on episodes of Summer House.
“The more I think this, the more anxious I get,” Paige told Ciara Miller, 29, on the April 9 episode, via Us Weekly. “In true, like, Paige and Craig fashion, I was like, ‘Dude, I feel like you’re not supportive.’”
Right away, Ciara informed her friend and co-star, “I don’t want him stealing the shine from your tour,” and she admitted that Craig had been giving “hater boyfriend energy.”
“Why should you dim your light just to make him feel comfortable?” Ciara wondered.
According to Paige, she felt Craig wanted her to “work less” so she’d have more time to prioritize him and their relationship. However, when it came to a potential move to Charleston, she was never truly on board.
“I’ve told him multiple times,” she explained. “I was like, ‘I don’t want to have children in Charleston. I don’t want to raise them in Charleston.’ He was like, ‘That’s fine, we’ll do it in New York.’ Like, OK. But then as it gets closer, and more real, he’s like, ‘I don’t know.’”
“I’m the breadwinner, so why the f*** would you not move to me? That would just be stupid, logistically,” she added.
Paige also revealed she told Craig “so many times” that he could end their relationship if it wasn’t what he wanted. But in Ciara’s mind, she felt Paige was doing so in an effort to avoid making a change herself.
“You’re putting it on him,” she stated. “It’s so much easier to give the other person the out than to really dig deep and determine if that’s really what you want.”
While Paige insisted she loved Craig and would be upset if they broke up, she confessed to feeling “conflicted” about their future and wondered why she wouldn’t “compromise” on certain things.
“I feel like I’m being gaslit into things that I need to compromise on,” she explained. “[And] I don’t know [if he’s still my person].”
Summer House season nine airs Wednesdays at 9/8c on Bravo.
