Paige DeSorbo is shutting down speculation that Bravo made her wait before confirming her split from Craig Conover.

“Craig and I have decided not to be together anymore,” she said. “I love him, I think he loves me. I think we will remain friends. Nobody did anything. It wasn’t a bad thing. I think we were both really mature and saying what we wanted and didn’t want, and I think that’s incredibly powerful to be able to express how you feel in real time and what you want for your future.”
DeSorbo noted that she has changed “a lot” in recent years, but still has “so much love and respect” for Conover. “I think he’s one of the best people I’ve met in my entire life. I will remain his biggest fan and wish him the best, and he will indeed get the best, because he is the best,” she said. “But with that said, I think it’s the right decision for both of us.”
After the split, a source exclusively said Us Weekly that Conover planned to take the next step with DeSorbo. “Craig was ready for the next steps and had plans to propose to Paige. He was really pushing for next steps and wanted to settle down with her,” the insider said.
The source added that living in different cities — DeSorbo resides in New York City while Conover lives in Charleston, South Carolina — made things difficult for them.
“Paige doesn’t want to move to Charleston and logistically it would never work for long,” the insider noted. “A lot of their friends aren’t shocked at all, but they’re all sad for them.”
