The real reason why Craig Conover is no longer hiding his new romance with Natalie Buffett has been revealed after weeks of keeping their budding relationship under wraps - suong

The world of celebrities is glamorous, sparkling under bright lights, filled with dazzling smiles and seemingly perfect couples. But behind the spotlight lies secrets—layers of truth the public and even the media rarely get to see. And lately, Craig Conover—star of “Southern Charm”—has once again caught the public’s attention by finally revealing the truth behind his previously low-key relationship with Natalie Buffett.

For weeks, there were whispers. Leaked photos. Lingering glances exchanged at lavish parties. Fans began to suspect that Craig was romantically linked to Natalie—former girlfriend of NFL star Dak Prescott. Still, Craig stayed silent, as if waiting for the perfect moment to go public… or maybe to stir the pot?

And now, that moment has come. Craig has confirmed the relationship. But what truly shocked everyone wasn’t the who—but the why. Why keep it a secret for so long? And why reveal it now?

“I wasn’t hiding because I was afraid. I was hiding because I wasn’t ready to turn this into a media circus,” Craig said in a recent interview. “But now, I have no reason to hide.”

That statement unleashed a storm of speculation. Is Craig sending a subtle message to his ex, Paige DeSorbo—that she lost someone truly great? Their relationship, once hailed as the “golden couple of reality TV,” is now just a distant memory. And Natalie Buffett—gorgeous, successful, formerly tied to a high-profile athlete—feels like a very pointed statement.

So what’s the real motivation? A calculated clapback? A public rebrand? Or perhaps... something as simple as love?

Many believe Craig is trying to show the world—and especially Paige—that he’s no longer the emotionally fragile guy who was always chasing after others. He’s changed. He has options. And he’s not afraid to flaunt it.

“I was the one who got hurt. Now, I just want to live honestly. Natalie brings me peace,” Craig added.

Whether you love him or love to hate him, one thing is undeniable: Craig Conover is in the midst of a serious glow-up. No longer the reserved lawyer, no longer the heartbroken boyfriend in tearful reality show breakups—this new Craig is confident, bold, and just a bit audacious.

In the end, the public will always judge. But maybe Craig doesn’t care anymore. He’s made his choice—and this time, he’s walking forward with Natalie Buffett, under the spotlight, eyes steady, and a look that says: “Watch me now.”

One thing’s for sure:
Craig Conover is no longer the naïve boy we once knew.
