Paige DeSorbo’s split from Craig Conover came as a shock to Bravo fans — and apparently some of her costars as well.
Just one day before DeSorbo, 32, announced her breakup, her Summer House costar Jesse Solomon made a joke about performing at her and Conover’s wedding. On Sunday, December 29, Solomon posted a TikTok video of himself attempting to sing opera with the caption, “Andrea Bocelli who?”
In response on Monday, December 30, DeSorbo quipped, “All of the sudden everyone’s Italian.”
Solomon, apparently not having heard the news yet, hit back with the remark, “Ok fine I’ll sing it at your wedding.”

He then returned to his reply to add, “Well this was a poorly timed comment.”
DeSorbo announced on Monday that she and Conover, 35, had called it quits after three years of dating.
“Craig and I have decided to no longer be together,” she revealed during the latest episode of her and Hannah Berner’s “Giggly Squad” podcast. “I love him, I think he loves me. I think we will remain friends. No one did anything. It wasn’t a bad thing. I think we both were just being really mature and saying what we want and what we didn’t want, and I think that’s extremely powerful to be able to voice how you’re feeling in real time and what you want for your future.”
The Bravo star went on to say that she still has “so much love and respect” for Conover despite their breakup.
“I think he is one of the best people I’ve met in my entire life. I will remain the biggest fan for him and want the best for him, and he truly will get the best, because he is the best,” she said. “But, with that said, I think it is the right decision for both of us.”

Solomon previously made headlines for flirting with DeSorbo during season 8 of Summer House, which aired earlier this year, but DeSorbo said his behavior didn’t bother her or Conover.
“If no one hit on me all summer, I would cry,” she explained during the March 28 episode of the Summer House After Show. “I’d pack it in.”
She added, “This was so mean, but also Craig met Jesse and was like, ‘Oh, yeah Paige.’”
Weeks before DeSorbo’s split announcement, Conover shut down rumors that they had called it quits.
“I don’t know where that came from, because we’re together, like, every week,” the Southern Charm star told E! News in an interview published December 9. “So, no, Paige and I are not broken up. We’re still together.”
