Paige DeSorbo is moving on with a new man after her public split from Craig Conover.
“Paige has been quietly dating Joe D’Amelio for a while now, and things between them are going really well,” a source exclusively shares with Us Weekly. “It took a few months for Paige to warm up to being in another relationship again, but she moved on after Craig and is genuinely happy.”
The Summer House alum, 32, announced in December 2024 that she and Conover, 36, had split after three years of dating.
DeSorbo later revealed that she broke up with the Southern Charm star in November 2024 over Thanksgiving weekend.
“She’s in a totally different headspace now,” the insider shares with Us. “Joe is a breath of fresh air for her. He’s calm, grounded and much more low-key, which is exactly what Paige needed.”
Although DeSorbo has yet to hard-launch her new boyfriend on social media, DeuxMoi obtained a picture of the pair walking through Capri, Italy, earlier this month.
Some fans have also speculated that this is the man who attended a Philadelphia Eagles football game with DeSorbo back in January.
While neither DeSorbo nor D’Amelio have yet to publicly comment on the status of their relationship, the insider says it’s more than just a casual fling.
“He’s already met her family, and they really like him,” the source says. “It’s a different kind of relationship, and Paige is embracing that. She is having a lot of fun. Friends have seen a different side of Paige and can tell she is really happy right now.”
Us has reached out to DeSorbo’s rep and D’Amelio for comment.
It’s a season of change for DeSorbo, who previously announced she was leaving Summer House after seven years on the show.
“Being a part of this show has been one of the most rewarding chapters of my life — the friendships, the drama, the giggles, all unforgettable,” she wrote via her Instagram Story on June 5. “You’ve seen me grow up over these last seven summers. I’ll always be beyond grateful for the memories, the community, and the opportunities this wild ride has brought me. But like all good things (and some bad decisions), it’s time for this chapter to close.”
The “Giggly Squad” podcast host also made it clear that her ex was “dead” to her.
“I made the right decision,” she told pals Amanda Batula and Lindsay Hubbard on the May 21 finale of Summer House. “What made me feel like I made the right decision was two days later, my dad called me and said, ‘I just want to let you know, I feel like your personality is back.’”
