Craig Conover has come clean, addressing cheating rumors after his ex Paige DeSorbo accused him of texting other women while they were together.
Back on Wednesday, Paige, 32, alleged that she caught the 36-year-old texting 'two b*****s' during the Season 9 premiere of Bravo's Summer House.
Now, in the teaser for an upcoming Tamron Hall Show clip, he set the record straight and denied having any inappropriate communication with other women during their relationship.
In response to the scene his ex shot, he said: 'It was disappointing to see the direction that her and the show went because, I'm just grateful for the three years of a relationship that we had. It was really great.'
'I am a 100 times better version of myself now than I was and I think she is too,' he said of the Southern Charm star.
The star also said his co-star Shep Rose admitted that his 'loyalty' was one of his 'most frustrating' qualities, encouraging him to prove that there was no infidelity on his end.

'I think the best thing that you can have in a relationship is that security, not worrying what your partner is doing. So, no. I wasn’t. But, you can’t control other people, Craig added.
Craig's full interview will be released on Monday.
The two reality stars had dated for three years before their shocking split back in November 2024 after having met in 2019 at a mutual friend's birthday party.
Earlier this week, Paige was seen chatting with friends Amanda Batula and Lindsay Hubbard, when they discussed the unfounded rumor that Craig was cheating on her.
At that point in time he never addressed the speculation, even saying on Watch What Happens Live that he was 'not involved' anymore since she broke up with him.
And in response Paige said she felt like he was 'betraying' her by not debunking the cheating rumors, before revealing she caught him texting with two women.
'You’re gonna let people say that I’m a cheater? I caught you texting two b****es in the course of our relationship,' she said on the Summer House season 9 premiere.
She added about Craig, 'Now you're dead to me,' as both Amanda and Lindsay appeared shocked by the revelation.

Paige previously spoke about her ex failing to defend her on her Giggly Squad podcast earlier this month.
'No one involved was defending me which I found … interesting,' she said on her, while Amanda also called Craig out.
Amanda said it was, 'insanity' for Craig to 'not clear up any of the cheating rumors,' and slammed him for 'sending the dogs after her.'
'That was still your girlfriend of three years. Like, stand up for her a little bit. He’s been silent,' she added of him.
Craig said on WWHL last week, 'I got broken up with. I'm the ex-boyfriend. Now moving on with my life. Ok I'm not going to get sucked into the mud with them. Like her cast. Like commenting on how I'm grieving and that I'm sorry that I'm not reading Reddit every day and getting on there and defending her. I never said you cheated, so I'm not a part of this.'
When asked about Amanda's comment about him 'sending the dogs' on Paige, he said it was because she 'lied on her podcast and said the breakup was mutual.'
'I didn't tell her what to say. I got a text and she said, I'm announcing it on my podcast. And then she said it was mutual, which it wasn't. I didn't know about it. She called me and told me,' he said.
Paige also added in a recent interview with Elle that she isn't entirely sure how long she'll remain on Summer House.
'In response to the scene his ex shot, he said: 'It was disappointing to see the direction that her and the show went because, I’m just grateful for the three years of a relationship that we had,' he said; seen June 2022

'So I’m not trying to stay on it either. It fit in my life perfectly when I started. And if it continues to fit, then I’ll continue to do it,' she insisted.
The brunette beauty added the show will find a way to thrive, since, 'there’s always going to be degenerate 20-year-olds that wanna party.'
Shedding light on the timeline of their split, Paige claimed she and her ex called it quits over 'Thanksgiving weekend' at the 'end of November', one month before she confirmed the news publicly.
Recently, Craig insisted he would have proposed to Paige if they had not gone their separate ways, but noted 'she changes her mind a lot.'
Paige was recently spotted hanging out with mystery man at the Philadelphia Eagles versus Green Bay Packers game.
