Paige DeSorbo Claims Craig Conover Is ‘Dead’ to Her Amid Cheating Rumors—But Who Really ‘Betrayed’ Who?

The couple first sparked dating rumors in early 2021 after appearing on Winter House together, before officially confirming their relationship in October of that year. After nearly three years of long-distance romance between New York and Charleston, the pair announced their breakup in December 2024. Since then, fans have been desperately trying to piece together what actually went wrong as countless claims have been levied against the Bravo stars. Did Paige really cheat? Or was Craig the unfaithful one?

Did Paige DeSorbo cheat on Craig Conover?

Despite the rumors, Paige DeSorbo fully denies cheating on Craig Conover. During an episode of her Giggly Squad podcast, Paige addressed the allegations head-on. “I never, in the three years that I dated my ex-boyfriend, I never physically cheated on him, emotionally cheated on him,” DeSorbo said in the podcast episode, which aired on February 3, 2025.

The cheating rumors all started after Paige was spotted with an unidentified man at an Eagles game in January 2025. However, according to Paige, she and Craig actually broke up over Thanksgiving weekend—a full month before she publicly announced their split on the December 30, 2024 episode of Giggly Squad.

“Since no one’s sticking up for me on the other side… Let me say this here and now, I did not move on with some new guy. I am single. I don’t have a new boyfriend,” she insisted.

Paige explained that Craig wanted to maintain the appearance of being together while promoting the current season of Southern Charm which began airing in early December, leading her to keep their breakup under wraps initially.

The plot thickened during the Season 9 premiere of Summer House, which aired on February 12, 2025, when Paige dropped a bombshell that left co-stars Amanda Batula and Lindsay Hubbard visibly shocked.

“You’re gonna let people say that I’m a cheater? I caught you texting two bitches in the course of our relationship,” she said of Conover, before adding, “Now, you’re dead to me.” So… is it possible Craig was really the one with fidelity issues?

Paige’s co-star Batula has since publicly backed her, telling Page Six it was “insanity” for Conover to “not clear up any of the cheating rumors.” Batula shared, “That was still your girlfriend of three years. Like, stand up for her a little bit. He’s been silent.” Meanwhile, while Paige claims she texted Craig to warn him about her plans to announce their split, she says her “text went unanswered.”

Craig finally broke his silence on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen in February 2025, offering his perspective. “I got broken up with,” Conover explained. “I’m the ex-boyfriend moving on with my life. I’m sorry that I’m not reading Reddit every day and getting on there and defending her. I never said [she] cheated, so I’m not a part of [that].”

As both stars navigate their newly single status, fans will undoubtedly be watching both shows closely for more revelations. With accusations of secret texting and betrayal now public, this Bravo breakup saga appears far from over.

You can catch more of the drama unfolding on Summer House, which airs Wednesdays at 9 p.m. ET, and Southern Charm, with new episodes airing Thursdays at 8 p.m. ET—both on Bravo and streaming the next day on Peacock.
