Craig Conover is dipping his toe back in the dating pool one month after his split from Paige DeSorbo.
The Southern Charm star, 35, is on the celebrity-favorite dating app Raya, Us Weekly can confirm.
Conover’s dating profile reveals he’s “based in Charleston and often visits New York,” a source exclusively tells Us. (Conover has a home in South Carolina, and during his three-year romance with DeSorbo, 32, he frequented New York City, where she lives.)
The reality star chose “Raincoat” by Timeflies as his profile song, according to the insider, who notes Conover doesn’t have a written bio. He does list his “interests” as elephants and snowboarding, per the source.

Craig Conover is trying to live in the now after his split from Paige DeSorbo, a source exclusively tells Us Weekly. “Craig has been in good spirits since his split from Paige was announced,” the insider says, noting that the Southern Charm star “has a lot of friends rallying around him.” While Conover, 35, is […]
Conover and DeSorbo started dating in summer 2021 after getting close on season 1 of Winter House. It wasn’t until that fall that they confirmed their relationship.
The twosome remained in a long-distance romance for years, showing off their dynamic on both Southern Charm and Summer House. While Conover built a life for him and DeSorbo in Charleston, she flourished in the Big Apple — and bought her own place in the city.
“It’s really just not letting the unknown of the future ruin our happiness today,” Conover exclusively told Us of the couple’s mantra in September 2024. “And that was a decision that we had to make.”
He noted that their “ability to travel and technology” helped them split their time between the two places.
“I could go date someone that lived in Charleston and have that structure, but it wouldn’t be the right person,” Conover said at the time, calling DeSorbo his ideal match. “I think finding the right person is the hard part, and then figuring out the rest will just come in time.”
Three months later, DeSorbo announced that she and Conover called it quits over the holidays.

Paige DeSorbo and Craig Conover went from friends to lovers to exes. The Southern Charm star and the Summer House personality crossed paths while starring on their respective Bravo shows. “I met Craig, actually, three years ago and he was single. I had a boyfriend, and I absolutely respected that I was in a relationship,” […]
“I love him, I think he loves me. I think we will remain friends. No one did anything. It wasn’t a bad thing,” DeSorbo shared on a December 2024 episode of “The Giggly Squad” podcast. “I think we both were just being really mature and saying what we want and what we didn’t want, and I think that’s extremely powerful to be able to voice how you’re feeling in real time and what you want for your future.”
A source exclusively told Us at the time that while Conover was “ready for the next steps and had plans to propose” to DeSorbo, their distance made that difficult. “Logistically it was never going to work out long term,” the insider said, adding that the exes’ friends are “not shocked at all, but everyone is sad for them.”
Conover, meanwhile, broke his silence about the split via his Instagram Story on January 7, calling the breakup “very, very unexpected.”
He explained that it takes “two people to be in a relationship and you can’t control other people, you can only control how you react to it.” Conover confessed he was “shocked” after the end of the relationship, but he was focused on the notion that “everything happens for a reason.”
That same month, a source exclusively told Us that Conover was “internally upset” by the split but “put on a brave face” while spending time with friends in Aspen, Colorado, at the start of the new year.
“Craig has been in good spirits since his split from Paige was announced,” the insider said, noting that the Sewing Down South founder — who has unfollowed his ex on Instagram — “has a lot of friends rallying around him.”

DeSorbo was also rumored to be on a date at a Philadelphia Eagles game earlier this month, but the man’s identity hasn’t been revealed.
“Honestly, I’m excited for her to kind of spread her wings outside of this relationship and hit the streets with me,” DeSorbo’s Summer House costar Ciara Miller exclusively told Us on January 23.
Miller, who is also single, teased that their mutual BFF Amanda Batula can be their “wingman” when the ladies start to go out together in New York City.
