Could Craig Conover and Paige DeSorbo be any more perfect for each other? While chatting with Decider today at BravoCon, the Summer House star dished on their ideal pastime: watching videos about conspiracy theories on TikTok.
The couple has been dating since 2021 — and it’s no secret that Conover is super into conspiracy theories. In fact, he shocked his castmates during this week’s episode of Southern Charm when he revealed that he doesn’t believe panda bears are real — and that they are actually a person in a costume. But according to DeSorbo, her boyfriend didn’t come up with that one on his own.
“Craig and I were brought together by the universe for a reason because I love all of his conspiracy theories,” she gushed to us. “And I’m sorry but the panda one was mine that I told him and now everyone’s like, ‘Oh my god, Craig had the panda conspiracy theory.’ That was mine.”
Aside from bringing his theories up on Southern Charm, they have also become a hot topic on the Pillows and Beer podcast he shares with his fellow co-star Austen Kroll. When we caught up with Conover on Friday (Nov. 3), he opened up about his hopes to uncover some secrets at this weekend’s BravoCon.
“I’m trying to come up — you know, I’ve only been at BravoCon for a day but I’m sure there’s some sketchy stuff going on,” he said. “I think by tomorrow, I’m gonna have an answer for a BravoCon conspiracy but I haven’t quite uncovered it just yet. And I don’t have my hat on, so we can’t talk about it anyway.”
The Sewing Down South owner was referring to the tinfoil hats he and his castmates donned in the midseason trailer — in which Conover says, “A lot of people say that conspiracies are dangerous. But knowing the truth is never dangerous.”
Before Conover and Kroll went on their way, the latter revealed one more wild conspiracy theory his friend has shared.
“Craig doesn’t think that birds are real,” Kroll told us, to which Conover added, “Well, everyone knows that.”
