Real Reason Paige DeSorbo Left Summer House

Noting she was “really busy” with her other professional endeavors during filming last summer, Paige recalled realizing she couldn’t manage all of her work commitments, adding, “This past spring, I was like, ‘I really need time off. I don’t physically think I could film Summer House.'”

And—despite having a new loungewear line to sell—the busy businesswoman didn’t have it in her to film another season.

“You would think, like, Daphne was coming out, I’d want to promote it on the show,” she explained, “and that was always my plan. Come out with something and be able to promote it on the show. But just the way I felt personally, it overrode anything professionally with Daphne.”
