‘Summer House’ star Paige DeSorbo, Craig Conover split after engagement rumors

It’s over for Paige DeSorbo and Craig Conover.

DeSorbo, 32, confirmed the couple has split after three years of dating during her and Hannah Berner’s “Giggly Squad” podcast on Monday, noting that they “have decided to no longer be together.”

β€œIt’s strange, it’s very strange. I didn’t expect that,” she said. “Obviously when we first started dating, you don’t think, ‘Oh, what’s going to happen? We’re going to get married, right?’ You’re like in this relationship.”

“Not to sound traditional and old-fashioned, it’s not a situation where I have a 50-part series of ‘Who the hell did I date?'” the “Summer House” star joked. “Couldn’t be more against it.”

“I have so much love and respect for Craig. I think he is one of the best people I have ever met in my entire life. I will remain his biggest fan and want the best for him and he really want to get the best because he is the best, but that being said, I think it was the right decision for both of us to move forward in our lives and the direction in our lives that we didn’t force. “

“I love him, I think he loves me,” she continued. “I think we’ll stay friends. Nobody did anything. It wasn’t a bad thing. I think we were both just really mature and said what we wanted and what we didn’t want, and I think , it is extremely powerful to be able to express how you feel in real time and what you want for your future.”

DeSorbo described the split from Conover, 35, as a “very sad thing.”

“As you get older, I mean, I started dating Craig when I was 29 and I’m 32 now. And your 30s, for women, I feel like they’re very transformative. And you change a lot, and you’re growing a lot. Him too,” she explained to Berner, 33. “I know I’d never cry on the internet, but like, it’s okay if I cry on the pod. I feel like it is okay.”

Conover has yet to comment on the breakup.

The news comes amid weeks of rumors on social media that the couple got engaged over the holidays.
