Bravo cameras caught Paige DeSorbo and Craig Conover’s final summer together before they called it quits.
During Summer House season 9, episode 3, which aired on February 26, Paige revealed that she was thinking about freezing her eggs, noting that then-boyfriend Craig had already frozen his sperm. (While Summer House filmed in July-August 2024, Paige broke up with Craig that November after three years of dating.)
“I said to him, ‘I should probably freeze my eggs.’ And he goes, ‘Oh should I freeze my sperm?’” she recalled, adding that when Craig got tested, he was “perfectly fine.” She teased, “If anything, [he was] above average.”
Paige’s remarks about having a possible family with Craig aren’t the only comments that have Us doing a double take watching this season unfold.
Craig and Paige’s ‘Southern Charm’ Season 10 Moments That Didn’t Age Well
Scroll down to see which of Paige and Craig’s quotes from season 9 of Summer House haven’t gotten better with age:
Italian Memories
During the season 9 premiere, which aired on February 12, Paige recounted her recent trip to Italy with Craig and her family. “It was so nice. Craig came, like, four or five days in,” she told Ciara Miller, teasing, “Me and my brother just ganged up on Craig the whole time. Every time he talked, we’d be like, ‘Shut up Craig!’”
Getting the Pregnancy Scares
Paige got real about eventual road to motherhood during the season premiere after castmate Lindsay Hubbard revealed her pregnancy. (Lindsay welcomed her first baby, daughter Gemma, in December 2024.)
“I think in my very younger years I had very rose-colored glasses on of like, ‘And then you get a job and you get married and you have a baby,’” Paige told the cameras. “I also used to go in a tanning. You grow up and you learn things.”
She confessed, “Craig is ready to get married and have a baby and I’m still … not.”
Feeling ‘Bad’ for Craig
In a moment that actually makes more sense knowing that they pulled the plug on their romance, Paige gave fans a little insight into her long-distance relationship with Craig during the February 19 episode. After the pair went back and forth over FaceTime about their schedules — and inability to fly to each other’s homes — Paige explained their dynamic was no longer the same.
“Mark the day, ‘cause I’m gonna say it,” Paige said during a confessional. “I feel a little bad for Craig because I am a completely different person than the girl he started dating three years ago.”

She noted, “I’m busier. I’m not around as much. I’ve changed my mind [on] a lot of things.” Paige pointed to “marriage and moving and a baby” as things she’s flip-flopped on since she and Craig started dating.
“I’m not going to apologize that my life got busier and that I think differently on certain topics,” Paige continued. “But also, I am trying to recognize that I changed a lot.”
Not Ready for Kids
During season 9, episode 2, Paige shared that Lindsay’s pregnancy was “giving me anxiety” about her own relationship. “Let’s just put it in perspective. Craig and I started dating then Lindsay and Carl [Radke] started dating,” she recalled. “Then they got engaged. Then they planned a wedding. Then they called off a wedding.”
Paige continued: “Then [Lindsay] got a new boyfriend. Then she got pregnant and I’m still dating Craig. So, I’m feeling stressed that I have to have a baby, and I don’t want to do it.”
No More Bed Rotting
“Craig’s been ready for a family and for me to move into his home since literally the day he texted me,” Paige revealed during the February 26 episode. “But I have worked for this exact moment in my career for 10 plus years.”
She reflected on her past goals, saying, “Trust me, I wanted to be in the bed. I wanted to be taken care of. I would’ve loved to have just married a man and said, ‘And now I’m done,’ but that’s not where I’m at.”
Doing a ‘Health Check’
When Craig went to New York during season 9, episode 5, he and Paige had a serious discussion about their future while eating at an Australian restaurant. After Paige revealed she’s so busy she “can’t even find two weeks to freeze my eggs,” Craig confessed it’s a “bummer” that they are always on the go — and nowhere near each other.
“I think we’re so busy sometimes it feels like we live a single life,” Craig explained, noting, “I don’t want us doing events apart forever.” He expressed concerns for the future, adding, “I want to make sure as we continue to get busier … that we continue to make each other and our relationship a priority and we don’t let it slip. We never let our relationship fall to the wayside.”
Craig insisted that he wasn’t upset about their current dynamic, but said the chat was “more of like a health check in the relationship” so it didn’t start to unravel.
“Is there a tinge of you being not happy?” Paige asked. Craig claimed he was happy, but pointed out, “We are five times busier now than we were when we started dating.”
More Money, Less Paige
During the same March 12 episode, Craig alleged that it was “awesome” that Paige was becoming “more successful and busier,” which prompted Paige to ask, “Is it?”
When Craig questioned whether Paige thought he was truly happy for her success, she confessed that she wasn’t expecting her career trajectory either.
“My career took a different turn, and I can’t travel as much as I used to,” Paige explained, telling her then-partner, “I don’t want you to ever feel neglected. I don’t want you to ever feel like you’re not a priority. You’re absolutely a priority.”
She noted that Craig needed to be “a little bit OK” that they were going to be spending more time apart that year because of her job commitments.
“I was just being honest, if you were this busy for the rest of our lives, I wouldn’t see it working out,” Craig replied. He acknowledged that Paige would choose work “10 times out of 10” now, but added that when they had kids, she wouldn’t be able to “choose work all the time.”
Paige admitted Craig’s way of thinking made her feel like “if I get more and more successful it’s a bad thing” and that if she didn’t make him her “No. 1 priority, I’m going to feel guilty.”
Craig tried to ease the tension, claiming that he didn’t want her to “slow down,” but Paige pointed out that Craig was ready for babies “tomorrow” and the white picket fence existence.
“I don’t ever want to live a slow life,” she confessed. Craig confirmed that he did want the dad and hanging in the backyard lifestyle “one day,” adding, “I just never thought I’d be in such a submissive, like, relationship.”
Paige quipped, “Should I apologize for being strong and independent?” to which Craig replied, “I didn’t realize I would be giving up so much decision making.”
Summer House airs on Bravo Wednesdays at 9 p.m. ET.
