DeSorbo has been in a relationship with âSouthern Charmâ star Craig Conover, 35, since 2021. DeSorbo and Conover are in a long-distance relationship, as she resides in New York and he lives in Charleston, South Carolina.
In a May 2024 episode of the âSummer House After Show,â DeSorbo discussed Conoverâs desire to have his first child by the time he is 40 years old. She expressed annoyance over his timeline, as he does not have to experience pregnancy.
âWhen Craigâs ovaries come in, he can decide when he wants to have a baby. Okay, I love a timeline. I love when people plan things out. I think babies is something that you really canât plan,â said DeSorbo on the âSummer House After Showâ episode. âAlso Iâm the one who has to have it. So I love that he has a timeline, but we will compromise. And go by my timeline for a baby.â
The 31-year-old also clarified a few misconceptions about her relationship with Conover. She explained that he has neither asked her to marry him nor âmove in with him.â
âSo Iâm going to think about it in my own head. Like, âOkay if heâs not asking then like Iâm going to proceed with my own personal timeline and Iâm not going to sit and wait,ââ said DeSorbo.
