Go Inside the "First Moment" Paige DeSorbo Wanted to Move to Charleston
See how Madison LeCroy inspired the Summer House cast member to consider relocating to Craig Conover's city.
For Paige DeSorbo and Craig Conover, discussions about where and when they will officially live together are nothing new. However, on Season 9, Episode 14 of Southern Charm, Paige, who lives in New York City, appeared to have a change of heart about relocating to Charleston.
During the episode, Madison LeCroy and Brett Randle hosted a dinner for Paige and Craig. As Madison put the finishing touches on her setup, she told Brett that "the point" of the gathering was to "get Paige to move here."
Although the Summer House cast member hasn't made Charleston her official home just yet, Madison's plan did seem to work. When Paige arrived, she declared, "Madison, your house is stunning, gorgeous. I've been down here for a year, and this is the first moment I've wanted to move down here."
Brett Randle opens up about moving to Charleston
With that in mind, Paige asked Brett, who moved to South Carolina from California, "How are you liking Charleston?"
"I love it. I had never been to South Carolina. Then I met her and came out here, and I loved it instantly," Brett shared, to which Paige responded, "I mean, it is nice."
Is Paige DeSorbo moving to Charleston?
While Madison and Brett's dinner may have given Paige a new outlook on life in Charleston, she still wasn't planning to go pack her bags immediately. "I'm just not ready to move down here and, like, live in a cul-de-sac and have a baby," she said. "I'm just not."
In an interview, Madison shared how her feelings about moving out of downtown Charleston changed once she started dating Brett. "You know, I never had plans to live in a cul-de-sac, either," she said. "But I meet Brett, and I'm like, 'Which cul-de-sac?'"
Continuing the conversation, Paige explained that from her point of view, getting engaged and moving would go hand-in-hand. "Can [we] get engaged and me not be actively moving down here?" she asked. "Is that weird?"
Madison had a different perspective. "No, we did it," she told Paige. "We were engaged for almost a year."
Paige DeSorbo and Craig Conover talk about their long-distance relationship
Although Craig has been open about his desire for Paige to move full-time to Charleston, he explained earlier in the episode, "Technically, until we [have] children, it doesn't matter where we live."
As he chatted with Paige, Craig said, "I love that you've been spending more time down here."
"Yeah, I mean, I'm here every week," Paige responded. "Do you not like our setup now?"
Craig said he is happy with their current situation, but noted, "We can't have a family, like, long-distance, so eventually we'll have to move in together."
Although he previously told Madison that if Paige didn't move to Charleston they would "probably break up," he explained to Paige that he's not in a rush for her to say goodbye to the Big Apple. "I'm totally prepared to not talk about this again for like a year," he told Paige. "Because I know you're not ready. I've asked you about serious things before, and you've communicated to me that you're not in a hurry."
