Craig Conover was recently spotted with his new girlfriend, Natalie Buffett, at an airport in Charleston, South Carolina.
After reportedly bringing Natalie with him to New York City for his appearance on Watch What Happens Live last Thursday, where he confirmed he was “seeing someone” months after his split from Paige DeSorbo, 32, the 36-year-old Southern Charm cast member appeared to step out with his new leading lady as their past ties were revealed.
“Saw Craig with said GF at Charleston airport- I assume Natalie? That’s who Craig was with (in white),” a source wrote in a message to Deux Moi on Instagram.
Following days of speculation, Us Weekly confirmed that Craig is indeed dating Natalie.
After the couple was first tied to one another at the end of last week, it was confirmed that Natalie had previously dated Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott, 31, and Detroit Tigers pitcher Jack Flaherty, 29. However, it is now being revealed that she also had past ties to Craig himself.

“It seems that Craig’s new lady isn’t new after all!!” shared The Bravo Objective on Instagram. “Natalie and Craig apparently dated a bit in 2019. If you look through her 2019 highlights reel Craig was tagged in the spring.”
In Natalie’s Reel, Craig isn’t seen, but he is tagged in a photo of two lounge chairs overlooking a waterway in the Bahamas.
As for why Craig and Natalie never went public, the Instagram page went on to share that they allegedly got into an argument during their visit to the island.
“The rumor is they had a fight in the Bahamas and she left to be with friends who were also there,” the fan page stated.
During his appearance on WWHL last week, after sharing that he was not dating co-star Salley Carson, 30, Craig gushed over his new relationship, saying, “I’ve been reminded that the universe works in crazy ways, but everything happens for a reason.”
“I’m really happy in the chapter I’m in,” he added at another moment.
Part two of the Southern Charm season 10 reunion airs Thursday, April 3, at 8/7c on Bravo.
