Paige DeSorbo Says She “Tolerated Too Much” in Craig Conover Relationship: “I Was Really Blinded”

   

Paige DeSorbo is done playing nice — and she’s finally opening up about the emotional toll of her three-year relationship with Southern Charm star Craig Conover.

In a candid new interview, the Summer House fashionista revealed that she ignored several red flags while dating Craig, admitting, “I tolerated too much. I was really blinded by what I thought it could be.”

Fans watched their romance unfold across two Bravo franchises, from long-distance love to engagement rumors. But behind the curated social media moments and sweet on-screen scenes, Paige now says she felt unbalanced and unheard.

“I got to a point where I realized I was trying to convince myself that I was happy — instead of actually being happy,” she confessed. “There were times I should have spoken up or walked away, but I didn’t.”

Though Paige didn’t go into specifics about what she “tolerated,” many fans speculate it involved differences in lifestyle, communication, and long-term goals — especially after Craig revealed he had bought a ring and was ready to propose, while Paige seemed unsure about relocating or committing.

Since their late 2024 breakup, Paige has shifted her focus to self-reflection and reclaiming her independence. “I feel lighter now. I’m not waking up anxious or constantly trying to fix things,” she said.

Her honesty has struck a chord with fans, many of whom praised her vulnerability and growth. While the Paige-and-Craig chapter is officially closed, Paige is stepping into her next era — stronger, wiser, and no longer tolerating what doesn’t serve her.
