Just days after 33-year-old Paige announced that her relationship with Joe had become “exclusive” following over a year of dating, an old article from March 2020 resurfaced. Shared by Reality Blurb, the piece detailed the flirtatious exchanges between Joe and Teresa from years past, sparking concern among fans of Paige’s Giggly Squad podcast.
On February 28, Toronto Pop Zone reminded its Instagram followers of these historical flirtations, noting, “Paige went public… But if you were deep in Bravo comments in 2020… this name is not new.” The account also shared a collection of screenshots from late 2019 and early 2020, adding, “The screenshots? Still thriving.”
“Paige went public … But if you were deep in Bravo comments in 2020… this name is not new,” the Toronto Pop Zone reminded its followers on Instagram on February 28.
“The screenshots? Still thriving,” it added as it included a series of posts from late 2019 and early 2020.
“All dressed up love it,” Teresa wrote in the comments section of one of Joe’s pics.
“When’s our flight next trip?” Teresa commented on another post of Joe’s.
She also posted a series of fire emojis under a shirtless image of Joe.
Joe also shared comments under her photos, including one of a Sunday dinner with her family.
“I’ll go to the diner,” Joe wrote.
“Stop it I told you to come over,” Teresa replied.
After the fan page’s post was shared, people flooded the comments section with their thoughts.
“Eeeeyuck! He’s a Bravo chaser. Hope our girl drops him,” one person shared.
“As a giggler, I really want to pretend I never saw this,” another admitted.
“If I was Paige this would give me an incurable ick,” added a third.
Some questioned if Joe was desperate to be involved with Bravo.
“What? Is he the next [Slade Smiley]?” another person asked of Gretchen Rossi‘s fiancé, who was linked to a number of Real Housewives of Orange County stars before her.
Then, someone else said, “He’s the new Harry Dubin,” signaling his past ties to the ladies of The Real Housewives of New York City.
“Looks like we have a Bravo fanatic on our hands,” another user agreed.
Paige DeSorbo exited Summer House in June 2025 after seven seasons.
