"The second I caught wind of Paige, I very politely excused myself from the situation," she continued, admitting that she was still talking to Craig when she saw a picture of him and Paige in New York "sort of" together.
"I saw that picture, and I texted him, 'Hey, let's just be friends.' Like, I don't want to get in the middle of this. I was already in a love triangle in high school, I'm good for the rest of my life, I never want to be in another one," the mom of three added. "That's it."
