The Bravo universe has been rocked by the breakup of Craig Conover and Paige DeSorbo, the beloved couple from Summer House and Southern Charm. Fans were devastated by the news of their split, especially considering how supportive they seemed of each other during their three-year long-distance relationship. While the breakup seems to be amicable, it’s still painful to witness the end of a relationship many hoped would last. Since the news broke, Paige opened up on her podcast, but Craig has kept relatively quiet about the situation.
Craig’s New Year’s Eve in Aspen
As the calendar flipped to the new year, Craig Conover made his first public appearance since the breakup news surfaced. He was spotted ringing in 2025 with none other than Paulina Gretzky, the daughter of legendary hockey player Wayne Gretzky, and her husband, professional golfer Dustin Johnson. The group celebrated in Aspen, Colorado, and Paulina took to Instagram to share several photos of their New Year’s Eve festivities.
In the images, Craig appears to be in good spirits, smiling alongside Paulina, Dustin, and a small group of friends. This marks the first public sighting of Craig since the breakup, and while the photos suggest he’s enjoying himself, there is little indication of how he’s feeling beyond the surface.
Why Aspen and Not Southern Charm Castmates?
It’s notable that Craig chose to celebrate with Paulina and Dustin instead of his Southern Charm co-stars. This choice may reflect some distance between Craig and his Bravo castmates, which has been visible in recent episodes. However, Page Six reports that Craig has hung out with Paulina and Dustin on several occasions in the past, even joining them on couples’ trips with Paige. So, while it may seem surprising for fans watching from afar, it isn’t entirely unexpected for Craig to be spending time with this group.
This appearance in Aspen seems to indicate that Craig is leaning on his close circle of friends to help him move through this difficult time. Given the nature of his and Paige’s relationship, it’s understandable that both would need time and space to adjust to the changes following their breakup.
Fans Still Curious
For fans who were invested in Craig and Paige’s relationship, this New Year’s Eve sighting has sparked even more curiosity. Every little detail about Craig’s post-breakup life is being scrutinized, and many are eager to learn more about how he’s coping and what his next steps are.
As Southern Charm continues airing new episodes on Bravo, viewers may catch glimpses of Craig’s journey through this transition, and perhaps, more about his life after Paige.
