Have 'Winter House' stars Paige DeSorbo and Craig Conover moved in? Couple gives an update
Craig Conover and Paige DeSorbo have been orbiting each other in the Bravo universe for years. They are now open to having their own spin-off series.
The two met in the Hamptons while filming Bravo's hit reality program 'Summer House,' and they eventually became good friends on the spinoff series 'Winter House.' Paige had just broken up with her ex, Perry Rahbar, and Craig was seeing his then girlfriend, Natalie Hegnauer. Their relationship quickly turned deep once production for 'Winter House' concluded, though both Craig and Paige continued to date other people as they figured out how serious their emotions were – a journey that was fully chronicled throughout Season 6 of 'Summer House.'

It didn't take long, though, for the pair to decide they wanted to be together. The pair made things official in fall 2021 and have been sharing glimpses of their relationship on social media ever since.
Craig and Paige's relationship became public after months of rumors in October 2021. Craig raved about his costar-turned-girlfriend in an interview with People, stating that their relationship had been a long time in the making. "We both had a crush on each other from three years ago when I came to the Hamptons for Kyle's birthday party. We always had an eye for each other," he said. He went on to explain how their connection evolved into a romantic one, insisting that it happened "naturally."
"It was done in a healthy way. We built a friendship and got to know each other first, and it all happened naturally. You see the foundation of our relationship start to form on the show," he stated.
Craig explained that he and Paige wanted to stay out of the public eye while they navigated their early days as a pair, which is why they kept their romance under wraps for so long. "It confuses me when people didn't think it was real or that we were hanging out for publicity. If it wasn't real then I'd be posting about it. I haven't posted a thing about it because it's so real," he said.
Craig and Paige wish for a potential spin-off
Paige and Craig disclosed their spin-off hopes in an interview with People on the red carpet at the MTV Movie & TV Awards, where Paige's red carpet style sparked social media comments. When asked about a spin-off, Craig immediately answered yes. While his partner recognized that it would be "a lot of pressure," Paige also stated that a program centered on them would be "funnier than both Southern Charm and Summer House." "I think it'd be fun to see us in our off time," Craig agreed. The couple reportedly discussed spreading their love tale across many episodes. "I feel like it actually keeps us in line because everyone's gonna see us, including our parents," Paige said.
Craig quipped, "It's kind of opened up the multiverse of the Bravo MCU." He also mentioned that their programs were significantly different, which added to the confusion. "It's neat after the fact to see kind of the different environment," the cushion designer continued. While they didn't discuss it during the red carpet interview, Craig's relationship with ex-Naomie Olindo was undoubtedly a key environmental aspect in Southern Charm Season 8. She returned to Charleston following her own tragic split.
When a trailer for the second season of 'Winter House' was released, it showed stars from 'Vanderpump Rules,' 'Southern Charm,' and 'Summer House' living together in Vermont. The team is shown drinking and partying, but it appears that not everyone is pleased about spending so much time in one place. Craig stated in the teaser, "This will be the longest Paige and I have ever spent together."
Paige, on the other hand, said, "I'm not used to living with a boyfriend. I'm f***ing terrified."
Is the couple living together?
Paige and Craig haven't moved in together yet, but they're spending a lot of time at each other's houses. The actor from 'Southern Charm' recently posted an important update on Instagram about his living situation with his 'Summer House' girlfriend. Craig addressed his long-distance romance with Paige on Instagram Stories on September 1. In answer to a follower's query about how often he sees his fiancée, the Sewing Down South founder said that the two seldom spent more than a few days without seeing one another. Craig said, "I spend half the week in NYC and half the week in Charleston, and honestly, I love it." Paige and Craig are not only traveling back and forth to spend time together, but they are also doing everything they can to make each other feel at ease.
As per Bravo, Paige keeps Craig's favorite meals in her NYC apartment's kitchen, Craig made care to consult Paige on his continuing house improvements, which included creating a big new closet (which is already filled with some of Paige's outfits!).
Season 2 of 'Winter House' will air its supersize premiere on Thursday, October 13 at 8 pm ET. Each episode will be available on Peacock the following day.
