Craig Conover appeared to discreetly spill some tea about Natalie Buffett during an appearance on Kristin Cavallari’s reality show.
The Wednesday, June 25, episode of Honestly Cavallari: The Headline Tour featured Craig, 36, and fellow Southern Charm star Austen Kroll as Kristin’s onstage guests. During a game of “sip or spill,” things got rather awkward.
“Kiss Craig on the lips,” Kristin’s BFF and celebrity hairstylist Justin Anderson said during the game. Kristin laughed while Craig looked horrified.
“It would be everywhere,” Kristin responded.
Craig was quick to make an admission.
“My Raya date is more than just a Raya date so I can’t” he said. “Or I would.”
Both Kristin and Craig took a shot before they hugged.
After the live show, the two discussed the kiss once again backstage.
“Kristin, if I wasn’t dating someone, I would have kissed you on stage,” he said. “But I was like, ‘No one knows I’m dating someone.’”
Kristin, of course, asked for more details.
“It’s someone I met in the Bahamas seven years ago. We reconnected [on Raya],” Craig said, noting it was the “first person” he talked to on the dating app. “Timing is everything.”
It didn’t take Craig Conover too long to find a new flame in Natalie Buffett — but what does his ex-girlfriend Paige DeSorbo think about him moving on so quickly? “Paige isn’t fazed by Craig dating,” a source exclusively tells Us Weekly, noting that the Summer House star, 32, doesn’t have time to think about Conover, […]
Craig did confirm during a Wednesday episode of “The Toast” podcast that he was single following news of his romance with Natalie.
Us Weekly confirmed in March that Craig had moved on from Summer House star Paige DeSorbo with Natalie, who is NFL star Dak Prescott’s ex-girlfriend. (Craig and Paige split last year following a three-year relationship.)
Earlier this month, a source told Us exclusively that Craig and Natalie were “not exclusive” because of her busy schedule. Craig saw Natalie “recently,” the insider shared “but their relationship hasn’t progressed or become serious,” because of her travel schedule.
“He really likes Natalie,” the same source said. “Craig tends to go all in on his relationships and likes being monogamous.”
Natalie, however, “can’t be tied down right now,” the insider continued, noting that she “doesn’t want to be in a relationship” and “has told Craig this.”
Things between Craig and Natalie weren’t “fully aligned” the same source explained.
“Craig has been putting himself back out there since his split from Paige. He feels more confident now and excited to date again,” the insider continued. “He would be in a relationship right now if it was the best fit.”
