‘Southern Charm’ Shep Rose Disrespects Craig Conover

Shep Rose Disrespects Craig Conover
Craig Conover has struggled with his friends over the last few seasons and a lot has to do with Paige DeSorbo. The two dated for three years before calling it quits in late 2024. The Southern Charm star wanted to settle down and have a family with the Summer House beauty. Unfortunately, Paige was not there yet and had no plans to move to Charleston. She loved her life in New York City but for Craig, his Sewing Down South business was booming. Yet, the deeper in love he fell with Paige, the more he distanced himself from his friends.

Craig got sober and stopped going out as much. He chose to stay home and preferred gardening over partying with Austen Kroll. As for Shep Rose, he was also living a healthier lifestyle and had found love in Miss Bahamas so they were both on their own journeys. Shep was even there to mediate a conversation between Austen and Craig when they were struggling with all aspects of their relationship. Yet, one fan of the show had a serious question and it does make a lot of sense. They asked, via a Reddit thread, why Shep named his dog Lil Craig.

The fan asked this:
- Did Shep name his dog after Craig out of love or disrespect?
Many people wondered why he chose that name for his dog. Was it a job at Craig Conover or does Shep Rose love him that much? As it turns out, he was being very disrespectful toward Craig but the name works for the French Bulldog. So, did fellow Southern Charm viewers know the origin of Lil Craig’s name?
Just Some Good Ole Fun
Upon seeing this question, some Southern Charm fans did know the origin of Lil Craig’s name:
- It’s supposed to be ribbing Craig but inadvertently revealed how obsessed he was with Craig at the time
- Disrespect, they used to treat Craig the way they now treat JT
- Absolutely to be derisive. Completely done to insult Craig. It’s mean spirited.
- He point blank says in an old season “i’m naming him this so I can finally tell Craig what to do and he will actually listen to what I say”
It is sad that Shep Rose felt the need to name his dog after Craig Conover out of spite. However, they seemed to have mended fences so it all worked out in the end.
Do you think it was disrespectful or just childish for Shep to name his dog after Craig? Let us know and watch Southern Charm Thursdays on Bravo.
