Paige DeSorbo Says SNL’s Marcello Hernandez Had the Best Response to Cheating Rumors: ‘F— Yeah’

“I don’t care about any rumor that is, like, ever said about me,” DeSorbo, 32, admitted during the Tuesday, January 7 episode of her “Giggly Squad” podcast. “The only thing that I was like, OK, can’t, like, let this go by was because it was a third party involved. People saying that I cheated on Craig with Marcello.”
The Summer House star said she “died laughing” when the rumors first started circulating online. Then, she reached out to Hernandez, 27.
“I felt weird. I was like, ‘I feel like I have to text Marcelo cause like what if he sees it?’” DeSorbo said. “‘What if he has a girlfriend?’”

The Bravo star said there was only “one time” she had texted Hernandez one-on-one prior to the apology. (DeSorbo said she tried to get into the SNL afterparty when comedian Shane Gillis was the host.)
“I just texted him. I was like, ‘Hey, just want to let you know, there was a rumor going around that I cheated on my boyfriend with you,’ and he was just like, ‘F— yeah,’” DeSorbo said as she and cohost Hannah Berner laughed.
Hernandez then started sending DeSorbo screenshots of hateful messages he was getting about the rumor.

“I was like, ‘Marcello, I’m so f—ing sorry. This is so embarrassing,’” she continued. “And no one involved was defending me, which I found interesting.”
DeSorbo announced late last month that she and Conover, 35, split after three years together.
“Craig and I have decided to no longer be together,” she said during the December 30 episode of the “Giggly Squad” podcast, sharing that there was no drama surrounding their split.
Days later, Instagram gossip account Deuxmoi posted a blind item claiming that DeSorbo spent New Year’s with a mystery man. Fans attempted to identify the alleged suitor when the “Snark Bait” podcast released an episode claiming that DeSorbo was linked to “a New York City-based comedian,” prompting Hernandez’s name to get tossed around.

DeSorbo shut down the speculation in various TikTok comments. “See you in court,” she joked when responding to one social media user, referring to the “Giggly Squad” phrase she coined with Berner.
Conover, for his part, stayed silent about the split for a little over a week before breaking his silence on Tuesday.
“Sorry about the delay, this has all been very, very unexpected to say the least,” the Southern Charm star said. “[It happened] 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.”
