Paige DeSorbo and Craig Conover’s breakup took the Bravo world by surprise. The couple had been together for three years and often discussed their future together on their respective shows.
Many people had opinions after the news was made public, and they took to social media to express them. However, DeSorbo knew that she had to do the best thing for herself, not worrying about the outside noise.
“I’m proud of myself for making a tough decision even though the public was like, ‘You’re wrong, you’ll never find another person again,’” she said in an interview with The New York Times that was published on April 6.
“I am really thankful for the women that supported me and saw what I was going through,” she added.
Paige DeSorbo’s Friendship With Hannah Berner Got Her Through The Breakup
DeSorbo and Berner spend a lot of time together, so it’s natural that the “Summer House” star would lean on her podcast co-host in the tough moments.
“It really is true that there is nothing better than your best friend in moments like that,” DeSorbo told The New York Times. “I feel like I was processing the breakup so differently because I had those months where she allowed me to say every single thought that came into my brain about relationships, being someone’s wife, being someone’s mother. Like I had said everything I could, even I could think in those months. And so then once, like the public found out, I was like, ‘Oh, this is going to be fine.’”
And with that, she’s focused on her very successful career. Plus, she gets to do it all alongside her best friend.
“I definitely feel driven and focused,” DeSorbo explained. “I wanted something, so I’m working toward it.”
“Hitting these milestones in your career is so exciting,” she added. “But hitting them with your best friend is like a different level of happiness.”
Paige DeSorbo and Hannah Berner are Releasing a Book
“How To Giggle: A Guide to Taking Life Less Seriously” is being released on April 15, 2025.
“It’s for the casual reader,” DeSorbo told The New York Times. “I really pictured the girls like, going on vacation, grabbing this book, throwing it in their bag. Maybe they pick it up on vacation — but maybe they don’t even open it.”
This book is an opportunity for DeSorbo and Berner to “share hilarious and heartwarming advice on how to take life a little bit less seriously,” according to Simon and Schuster.
