The 32-year-old reality star opened up about a past abusive relationship she had when she was 19, adding that she was “completely brainwashed.”

“I probably felt the most insecure when I was 19 or 20. I dated a really physically and mentally abusive man, and that changed my entire course of dating when I was 20,” Paige said.

“I don’t even know if I said that in the module, that I was in an abusive relationship before, but I feel like if I’m going to say it, this is the episode. I would say it because I know for a fact that a lot of other girls have been in them too,” he added.

Her heartfelt words appear on the same podcast where she announced that her three-year relationship with Southern Charm star Craig Conover was over.

She said on her podcast that their split was amicable, but did not explain why they went their separate ways.

Reflecting on her previous abusive relationship at age 19, Paige noted that it was a “very strange time” in her life.

Adding that she was “completely brainwashed” by her ex-boyfriend.

The star did not divulge his name or who he was during the podcast.

‘I was 19, I was 20, I couldn’t drink legally. It really changed the way I see relationships. I had never been exposed to that. I never thought they could be me.’

Paige said she’s not “ashamed” of her past relationship, but she’s “really proud” of herself and how she handled it during and after.

She also learned why what she was attracted to led her to that relationship.

“I looked for chaos and I looked for pure adrenaline and excitement,” he reflected.

‘I thought, this is so much fun and it’s crazy. I would get out of a bad relationship and into one that was slightly better but, by anyone’s standards, very bad.

The reality star said she continued this pattern until she was 26.

At that time she entered into what she called a ‘normal’ relationship, however it did not work out.

After the end of her first “normal” relationship, Paige met Craig.

‘When I got out of my previous relationship and was single and met Craig, I thought, I’ve finally figured it out. I will be with someone who loves me very much. “This is all happening the way it’s supposed to be,” he said.

Paige and Craig first met in the Hamptons while filming Bravo’s Summer House and later forged a deeper bond on the spinoff series Winter House.

Their chemistry had fans buzzing for months before they finally confirmed their romance on Instagram in October 2021, ending speculation.

Their relationship was going from strength to strength until Monday, when she surprised fans with the news that the beloved couple had split, surprising even Andy Cohen.

“Craig and I have decided to no longer be together,” DeSorbo revealed during Monday’s episode of her and Hannah Berner’s Giggly Squad podcast.

‘I love it. I think he loves me. “I think we’ll stay friends,” he said, adding: “Nobody did anything. It wasn’t bad at all.’

DeSorbo went on to describe his decision as mature, saying, “I think we were both being really mature and saying what we wanted and what we didn’t want.” And I think it’s extremely powerful to be able to express how you feel in real time and what you want for your future.”
