Paige DeSorbo's raw, emotional turmoil was laid bare in this week's episode of Summer House, capturing her inner struggle as she teetered on the edge of ending her three-year relationship with Craig Conover. While the episode aired just months after the couple's real-life split, it offered a brutally honest look at the anxiety, guilt, and emotional overload Paige faced behind the glamor of influencer life.
During an intimate heart-to-heart with her best friend Ciara Miller, Paige confessed that despite having everything she thought she wanted—love, career, success—she was drowning in anxiety. "I just want to run away and change my name," she admitted, torn between choosing herself or staying in a relationship that seemed increasingly at odds with her ambitions.
The influencer and podcast host also revealed how Craig's previous concerns about her hectic schedule only deepened her guilt. Her multi-city Giggly Squad tour had become both a career high and a personal burden, creating distance and emotional friction in the relationship.
"I feel guilty that I'm not more happy," Paige said through tears. "I manifested all this, and yet I'm the most anxious I've ever been." It was a striking confession from someone whose life often seems picture-perfect on social media. But behind the filters, she was wrestling with deep uncertainty.
What made the episode even more gut-wrenching was Paige's fear of public perception. She worried that if she and Craig broke up, people would judge her harshly—painting her as selfish or incapable of sustaining a relationship. "I get nervous that everything I have will go away," she cried.
Ultimately, Paige's vulnerability served as a mirror for so many women navigating the fine line between love and self-preservation. As fans await what's next for her post-breakup, one thing is clear: Paige is choosing honesty, even when it hurts—and that takes real strength.
