We’ll always have Summer (House).

Paige DeSorbo, who joined the hit Bravo series in its third season, revealed on her Instagram story on Thursday that she will not be returning to the show.

“Being part of this show has been one of the most rewarding chapters of my life – the friendships, the giggles, all unforgettable,” she wrote. “You’ve seen me grow up over these last 7 summers. I’ll always be beyond grateful for the memories, the community, and the opportunities this wild ride has taught me. But like all good things (and some bad decisions), it’s time for this chapter to close.”

DeSorbo also thanked her co-stars, fans, and her “NBCU family,” the company behind Bravo.

“I never could’ve imagined what this journey would turn into – and how many of you would be along for the ride. And you haven’t seen the last of me, I promise. So much more to do together, but for now you know you can always find me and Daphne in my bed,” she concluded, referring to her sleepwear brand that is launching on June 10.

The past year was eventful for DeSorbo, who announced her break up with Southern Charm star Craig Conover in late 2024 on her and Hannah Berner‘s Giggly Squad podcast after three years together. Their buzzy breakup had co-stars of theirs taking sides, or as Summer House‘s Carl Radke told DECIDER in February, is like siding with your “quarterback.”

“It feels like leading up to a championship game or something, where both teams in the locker room are saying stuff,” he explained at the time. “Of course, everybody’s going to protect their quarterback or their head coach and Paige is like our quarterback, our head coach. And of course, we’re going to have her back, always.”

DeSorbo’s Thursday morning announcement arrives on the heels of Part 2 of the Summer House Season 9 reunion, during which she confirmed that Conover was “belligerently drunk” at Amanda Batula and Kyle Cooke‘s wedding and was “asked not to return” to Batulas’ parents’ backyard, where the wedding was held. After DeSorbo shared the news of her Summer House exit, Batula shared a selfie with her on her Instagram story with a heart emoji.

Wednesday night’s (June 4) episode of Watch What Happens Live also saw Kristin Cavallari admit that she and Conover previously “became romantic for two seconds,” though she “very politely excused” herself after learning of his relationship with DeSorbo.

Summer House Season 9 and both parts of the Summer House Season 9 reunion are streaming on Peacock.
