Paige DeSorbo and Joe D’Amelio reportedly rang in the New Year together after her split from Craig Conover and his split from ex-fiance Rachel Durante.
After the 32-year-old Summer House star revealed on a recent episode of her podcast that she has been single for “a couple months,” an insider spoke out about her alleged romance with Joe, which recently seemed to be called out by Rachel on Instagram, saying that Paige has supposedly been dating Joe since her breakup with the Southern Charm cast member.
“All the Gigglers didn’t believe it was true. I’m here to tell you, I found out it was true. She was at Zero Bond with Joe D’Amelio,” the host of the Deux U podcast shared, via Bravo Investigator on Instagram.
Meanwhile, Taste of Reality claimed that the outing took place on New Year’s, despite the fact that Paige had been linked to comedian Marcello Hernandez, 27, around that time.
While Paige and Joe weren’t photographed together until they attended the same Philadelphia Eagles game earlier this month, the Deux U report went on to claim that Paige had been “dating [Joe] since she broke up with Craig.” That said, the host confirmed that she had it “on very good authority” that Paige did not cheat on Craig, 35.
“With all this talk about her dating somebody new so quickly after her breakup with Craig, I want to make that very clear,” they stated. “From a very, very inside source, there was no cheating.”
As for the telling statements Rachel posted on social media, in which the artist spoke of a woman sending “disrespectful” messages to Joe amid their engagement, and suggesting he leave her for her, the host admitted that while she was a bit vague, many were convinced she was talking about Paige.
“Again, it says messages. It does not say cheating,” she clarified.
“I also want to say there is another rumor going around,” she continued. “There is another rumor going around that Joe D’Amelio’s sister was backstage at Paige’s Radio City Giggly show. Joe was there, too. The sister confirmed there was some overlap in the relationship. Again, is the overlap DMing? Is the overlap that she met Joe while she was still dating Craig? I don’t know.”
Summer House season nine premieres on Wednesday, February 12, at 9/8c on Bravo.
