Madison LeCroy has spoken out about the breakup between her Southern Charm costars Paige DeSorbo and Craig Conover.
On the most recent episode of the reality TV show, Madison attended a party that the former couple were at.
She discussed what that was like and if she gave Craig any advice for moving on during an Amazon Live this week.
‘I don’t need to give him any advice,’ she said. ‘I just told him, “You’re going to be a great husband, you’re going to be a great dad one day.
“You have so much to look forward to, like, just be lucky you didn’t already have those things and then go through a breakup.”‘
She also revealed whether Paige and Craig are on speaking terms.

‘I’m here to hype him up when he’s down—and I’ll do that for anyone really,’ she said.
‘But, they’re still good and I think everything’s going to be fine. I think you guys are taking it a lot harder than they are,’ she teased.
Last week Craig broke his silence on the breakup in an Instagram video in which he hinted that it was Paige who ended things.
‘I figure it’s finally time to check in with everyone… This has all been very, very unexpected to say the least.
‘But I guess life has to, I gotta start living again, whatever that looks like. Whatever my new normal looks like, I have to start,’ he said.
‘Gratitude will get you through this, with time comes clarity, all of the advice, I’m trying to listen to. But yeah. Right before the holidays, I was very shocked.
‘And it’s OK. It takes two people to be in a relationship, and you can’t control other people, you can only control how you react to it, so.’
‘Remember to be kind to Paige and me and yourselves and all of that good stuff. I’m still processing everything, which is normal, I mean, three year relationship, it’s your best friend who you talk to all day, everyday and then they’re just gone.

‘I don’t need to give him any advice,’ she said. ‘I just told him, “You’re going to be a great husband, you’re going to be a great dad one day”
“You have so much to look forward to, like, just be lucky you didn’t already have those things and then go through a breakup”‘
‘One day I’ll be able to talk more on it but right now I just wanted to thank everyone for their kind messages.
‘It has been really nice to read them and it’s just life and I have to take my own advice that I give when I go around and speak at these home shows “that no one’s ever not better off after a breakup.”
‘But I guess now to practice what I preach and believe it and truly have faith in God that everything happens for a reason.
‘But I love you all and I’ll see everyone on my travels this January, we’ve got a lot coming up.’
Paige announced their split last month on an episode of the Giggly Squad podcast.
‘Craig and I have decided to no longer be together,’ DeSorbo revealed.
Fighting back tears, the reality star admitted discussing the breakup publicly felt ‘weird,’ but she made it clear she holds only positive feelings for Conover.
‘I love him. I think he loves me. I think we will remain friends,’ she said, adding, ‘No one did anything. It wasn’t a bad thing.’

DeSorbo went on to describe their decision as a mature one, saying, ‘I think we both were just being really mature and saying what we want and what we didn’t want.
‘And I think that’s extremely powerful to be able to voice how you’re feeling in real time and what you want for your future.’
Paige remained tight-lipped about the exact reasons behind her breakup with Craig but described the past few years as ‘very transformative,’ noting that both she and Conover had experienced significant growth and change during their time together.
While she didn’t specify when they officially ended their relationship, the pair appeared to still be on good terms as recently as last month when they celebrated Thanksgiving at her parents’ home in upstate New York.
‘He’s definitely the best boyfriend I’ve ever had. Like, I can truly say that,’ DeSorbo shared, reflecting on their time together.
‘He was a great boyfriend, and he did everything correct, and he never made me feel insecure or anything like that, so it almost is harder when no one’s done anything to be mad about, and that’s hard.’
