Lala Kent slammed Craig Conover for moving on “so f**king quick” with another woman after claiming he was “devastated” by his breakup with Paige DeSorbo. The Vanderpump Rules alum suggested that his love wasn’t real, and questioned if he was truly “blindsided.”
At the end of 2024, Paige revealed that she and Craig had broken up. At the time, Craig claimed he didn’t see it coming, as he had recently purchased her a ring and made plans for their future. A few months later, reports surfaced that he entered a new romance with Natalie Buffett.
“Craig Conover has a new girlfriend and I just learned this,” said Lala on her Give Them Lala podcast, via @vanderpodrecaps on Instagram. “I just wanted to take this opportunity to express my jaw just dropped to the floor. It is so crazy to me, you guys, that the people who sit there and talk about how blindsided they were about their breakup and they’re devastated and we were going to get married and spend our life together — they move on so quickly.”
“How can anyone believe that you were devastated or had your heart involved when you moved on so fast?” she went on.
As for Paige’s reaction, Lala said the Summer House star “doesn’t seem to be that concerned.”
“She said she’s very happy for him. I think it is totally fair for her to say, ‘I’m a different person than I was when I started dating him. And things that I thought I wanted, I don’t necessarily want right now. I talked about wanting X, Y, and Z by the time I was this age. I’m now this age. And I’ve decided that I would rather focus on my career. And I’m having a really nice time. And I’m going to cut you loose and go do the things you want,’” shared Lala. “She’s also said in the past that he’s a liar.”
“But neither of them have come out and said, this person cheated. There was always speculation of it,” she continued. “She could be in the boat of like, was he talking to other women? Because the connection that they have is too, it’s too strong for the time that they’ve had. So you must have been talking to this girl. Maybe you didn’t kiss or cheat or do anything, but the attention that you gave, you guys built a relationship that has now been strong enough that you guys are now dating this soon.”
Lala suggested that Craig didn’t really love Paige, despite having bought her a ring.
“How unhealthy is this person …” Lala added, “that you could be planning your life with someone and move on so f**king quick?”
