Craig Conover is protesting yet again. The Southern Charm star friend-zoned Salley Carson on a recent episode after seemingly wooing her with late-night hot tub sessions. The sophomore Southern Charm star insisted that she “caught feels” for a reason.
However, on the Southern Charm After Show, both parties reiterated what was already said. Craig is denying giving off any romantic vibes. While, Salley refuses to be called delusional on the matter.
Salley Carson admitted she had a crush on Craig Conover
On the After Show for Season 11, Epsiode 7, shared by Bravo, the Sewing Down South founder defended his actions with his co-star. He recalled sending Salley home once after she asked him to stay in his Charleston, South Carolina home.
“I don’t like hurting people’s feelings, and I thought I had made it clear,” Craig shared. “I don’t think she wanted to take the hint.”
Craig felt a “sister-brother” situation with Salley. She even reminded him of a friend from college that happened to be female.
“It wasn’t weird to hang out with the girls you weren’t dating. Salley just wanted it to be something that it wasn’t,” he opined.
If anything, Craig blames his “lavish” lifestyle and penchant for hospitality as giving the wrong impression. He stated, “When I hang out with someone, I don’t know how to, like, do it half-ass. Like, I’m gonna take you to my favorite spots and do things that are, like, romantic, because that’s just who I am.”
Craig continued, “Everyone’s assuming, like, every guy wants to hook up with every girl. It’s weird. Like, I’m very selective with people, and I don’t just hook up with them. I don’t use it as an escape from my reality.”
For her part, Salley denies “pulling it out of my ass.” She revealed, “Like, we’re hanging out all the time, we’re talking all the time, and I’m at his house until 5 a.m. all the time. And then he’s FaceTime-ing me all night. We had a lot of chemistry.”
Salley may want to rethink those chickens.
