Craig Conover and Paige DeSorbo
Bravo (2)Craig Conover a real coat Southern Charm about his family plans with Paige DeSorbo – and the steps he took to become a father someday – before they called it quits.
“Yes Paige has decided to freeze my sperm,” Craig, 35, told my friends Austen Kroll a Rose Shep during the Thursday, January 2, episode of the Bravo series, which was filmed in the summer of 2024.
During the episode, Craig also said his girlfriend at the timePaige, for choosing him to ensure they can have children one day, which surprised her too. (Paige, 32, she announced and Craig split days before this episode aired.)
“I was thinking about freezing my sperm,” Craig explained to Paige while sitting in his Charleston backyard. “That’s like the stupidest thing in the world,” Paige said in response to awe.
Despite the visible shock on Paige’s face, Craig moved on with the idea and the cameras followed him to the sperm bank where he did his business.
Craig continued to outline his plan for a family with Paige while chatting to Austen, 37, and Shep, 44, during Thursday’s episode.
“I read about this person who got in a car accident … they can’t produce anymore,” Craig told his friends. “I’d be remiss not to say that becoming a father is probably whatever it’s called if it has to happen in my future.”

When asked about whose idea it was still off on having a familyCraig said it was Paige. She claimed that once she decided they would stay, “It just made sense to me.”
However, Craig admitted that “without any influence from Paige” he would have his own timeline, which is: “You date a little bit before you get married, then you have kids.”
The Founder of Sewing Down South he insisted that he and Paige, who had been dating for three years when the scene was filmed, were going to get married and have children “one day” but for now they were trying to “make as much money as possible.” “
“I want children one day. Have I ever told you that I want children right now?” Craig told Austen, claiming, “I never said I wanted kids right now.”
However, Austen told the cameras, “Ever since I’ve known Craig, he wants to get married, wants to have kids.” Austen admitted, “I’m not completely sold on that Craig wants what Paige wants.”
Craig, meanwhile, admitted that his own timeline was altered due to his relationship with Paige. “What I’m living is not the version of life that I saw myself living, which is this stable home that I grew up with,” she told the cameras. “Every night at dinner, mum and dad were there with my brother. I loved that.”
He explained: “But I think if you find the right person and they happen to be a fierce Italian from New York things aren’t always going to go the way you plan.”
Craig and Paige sparked romance in the summer of 2021 after starring on season 1 of Winter House. Beginning of December 2024, Craig shut down breakup rumors but weeks later Paige confirmed that they had split before the holidays.
“Craig and I have decided not to be together anymore,” said the Summer House seren said during the Monday, December 30, episode of her and Hannah Berner‘s “Giggly Squad” Podcast.. “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’re both being really mature and saying what we want and what we don’t want, and I think that’s incredibly powerful to be able to voice how you feeling in real time and what you want for your future.”
Before their split, source just say Us Weekly that Craig is “ready for the next steps and has plans to propose.” However, living in separate cities – Craig lives in Charleston, while Paige lives in New York City – was too much for the couple to overcome.
“Paige doesn’t want to move to Charleston, and logistically it was never going to work out in the long run,” the insider said on Tuesday, December 31. “A lot of their friends aren’t shocked at all, but everyone is sad for them. “
Southern Charm airs on Bravo Thursday Nights at 8 pm ET.
