‘Southern Charm’ Recap: Paige DeSorbo Gets Real With Shep About Sienna, Says ‘She Does Not Like You’

Paige DeSorbo made a cameo on the latest episode of Southern Charm to try and talk some sense into Shep Rose amid his and Sienna Evans’ relationship woes.

“I need your help talking to Shep,” Craig Conover told his then-girlfriend, Paige, during the Thursday, February 27, episode of the Bravo series while chatting with her over FaceTime. (Paige, 32, and Craig, 36, split in November 2024 after three years of dating.)

Craig told the cameras that after trying to tell Shep, 42, that Sienna, 26, was not into him, he realized maybe “he needs to hear a girl translate the message to him.” Craig employed Paige to do the job and she didn’t mince words.

“The only thing I will say is, especially with long distance, if it’s already a little shaky it only gets shakier,” Paige told Shep over the phone while the Southern Charm squad was in the Bahamas.

Shep noted that he “said everything I need[ed] to say” and “laid it all out on the line” and she was still not responding in a way he liked. (During the group’s Bahamas trip, Shep reunited with Sienna after a month and a half apart. Shep proceeded to profess his love for her, but she didn’t express the same feelings.)

“Good. Then it literally is all on her,” Paige explained, noting, “If she doesn’t give you the same energy back, then let her go.”

Craig pointed out that Shep was “hung up” on the fact Sienna allegedly told him she “loved” him three weeks prior to the trip and was then acting so distant. (Sienna missed multiple group outings, including a boat day following Shep and Paige’s call.)

“Things change,” Paige said, pointing out, “If she’s not texting you back. If she’s not trying to sleep in your room every night, if she’s not trying to hang out, if she’s not trying to introduce you to her family, she does not like you.”

Shep revealed that he did meet her family while visiting Sienna in the Bahamas months prior, but Paige noted that times have changed.

“Yes, but she wasn’t talking to you before you got there [this time] and she’s not going to talk to you after you leave,” she said.

Paige then gave Shep advice that she learned from her mother. “They don’t like you! If they liked you, you would know it,” the Summer House star bluntly told him. “She doesn’t like you. So you gotta let her go.”

Elsewhere in the episode, Craig told Shep that “whatever this is isn’t healthy,” reminding him that Sienna wasn’t making an effort despite Shep’s continued attempts to see her while in town.

Shep tried to give Sienna the benefit of the doubt, telling Craig and the rest of his friends that she was going to join them on a boat adventure that afternoon. However, when she texted to say she was “running late” and to go without her, it became even more clear to the group that they weren’t on the same page.

“Look at that dejected walk. He’s Charlie Browning right now,” Austen Kroll said when he saw Shep walking to the boat, hunched over with his head down. “That’s not good.”

When Madison LeCroy asked, “Did she break up with you,” Shep replied, “Not really.”

Once on Rose Island in the Bahamas, Madison, 34, had a heart-to-heart with Shep, asking, “Do you feel like you’re not rich enough for her?”

Shep confessed, “Maybe, yeah, I do. Maybe I don’t even deserve [her]. Who am I? I’m a wild son of a bitch. Sort of disaster zone. How am I a good idea for anybody?”

Madison tried to brighten his spirits, saying, “You deserve to be loved as much as you’re giving.”

Shep confirmed in November 2024 that he was single after a whirlwind romance with Sienna earlier that year.

Southern Charm airs on Bravo Thursdays at 8 p.m. ET.
