Paige DeSorbo Says She ‘Gave All I Could Give’ to ‘Summer House’ Before Bravo Exit

Paige DeSorbo acknowledges her Summer House exit will be a “drastic switch” — but one stands by that it was time to say goodbye.

Paige, 32, and cohost Hannah Berner kicked off their Tuesday, June 10, “Giggly Squad” podcast episode with a “moment of silence” for Paige’s time on the Bravo series

Hannah, 33, described it as “the end of a beautiful era,” while Paige got real about why now was the perfect time to leave the Hamptons behind. “I just feel like I gave all I could give,” she confessed.

Looking back, Paige said that she did have a moment where she was unsure how to exit the show. “You know when you make a drastic switch in your life and before you do it, you’re like, ‘But how am I going to feel when I do it? What if I regret it?’ I was dealing with that,” Paige said. “I was like, ‘But, what if I say it to everyone and then I’m like, Oh, my God I want to go back.’”

Paige, who announced her departure from the series earlier this month, noted that after she ripped off the band-aid she feels “so aligned” with her decision.

Hannah teased, “You can Tom Brady it if you want to,” referring to the NFL player’s choice to retire from football in February 2022 before returning for one more season and then retiring for good in February 2023.

“What am I the freshman in college going back to her high school?” Paige quipped, noting, “No, I feel good. It’s kinda also like graduating college. Like you’re like, ‘Oh, this is sad, but I want to go to the next step. I’m excited.’”

Paige explained that saying farewell to Summer House felt a lot like closing her college chapter because, “Whilst you’re doing it you have a flashback, where [you’re like], ‘Oh, I wish we could go back to college. That was so easy and fun.’ I’m sure I’ll have that.”

For now, the Daphne loungewear designer is trying to figure out what her next few months will look like without filming the reality series.

“The fact that I’m starting my summer and nobody’s going to say to me, ‘What story would you like to tell this summer?’ I just feel … what do people do in the summer?” Paige asked with a laugh. “I’m so excited.”
