A source shared that Craig Conover and Natalie Buffett are “not exclusive,” as she allegedly told him she “doesn’t want to be in a relationship” – amid rumors that they split.

At the end of 2024, Paige DeSorbo broke up with the Southern Charm star after three years of dating. Craig claimed that he bought Paige a ring and was planning on proposing. Months after the split, it was revealed that Craig was in a new relationship with Natalie.

Recently, an insider told Us Weekly that Natalie and Craig are “not exclusive,” though he saw her “recently.” The source claimed “their relationship hasn’t progressed or become serious … [because she] travels often.”

According to the insider, Craig “always” considered their romance “fun,” and Craig would “ideally like to settle down” once he finds the right partner.

“He really likes Natalie … [they] have a lot of fun,” said the source. “Craig tends to go all in on his relationships and likes being monogamous … Natalie is the type that can’t be tied down right now. [She told Craig she] doesn’t want to be in a relationship.”

“They aren’t fully aligned,” the source added, but explained that this hasn’t prevented Craig from dating again. “Craig has been putting himself back out there since his split from Paige. He feels more confident now and excited to date again,” said the insider. “He would be in a relationship right now if it was the best fit.”

Back in April, a source shared details about Craig’s new romance. “Craig and Natalie met years ago and had a fling,” said the insider, who revealed that they broke things off in 2019. “They are taking things slow and it’s still pretty new, but Craig is all in.”

Earlier this week, Natalie was asked on Instagram if she’s currently dating.

“If you’re new here, you should know that I never have and never will comment on any current or past relationship,” she said at the time. “I’m not dating anyone specific and just really enjoying the season I’m in right now with my family and friends and traveling the world. Hope this helps, xoxo.”
