Summer House Season 9: Episode 6 Overview
The much-anticipated sixth episode of Summer House season 9 premiered on March 19, spotlighting tensions between Kyle and Craig during a weekend getaway, which included Craig’s girlfriend, Paige.
Conflict Between Paige and Craig
Earlier episodes in this season hinted at ongoing friction between Paige and Craig. Craig expressed dissatisfaction with Paige’s burgeoning career, urging her to consider marriage and family before getting too swept up in her professional life. In contrast, Paige emphasized her reluctance to engage in discussions about marriage, stating she had too much on her plate which left Craig feeling sidelined.
Priorities at Odds
During episode 6, Paige confronted Craig about feeling like a priority over the weekend. Craig acknowledged that he had never explicitly said that she didn’t prioritize him, but he voiced his concerns about the dynamics of their relationship. Paige defended her stance, asserting that her career was her current focus and she hoped Craig wouldn’t harbor negative feelings about it.
This led to Craig feeling it was unfair, asserting that the situation prevented him from expressing his own needs. The discussion quickly captivated fans, spurring a variety of reactions on social media.
“God I’m so sick of Craig throwing these hissy fits. If I were Paige I’d dump him too,”a fan said.
“Can the other cast hear people’s convo? Like can Kyle hear Paige and Craig speaking because why is he looking? I noticed this on a lot of Bravo shows,”said another.
“Paige is a nasty mean girl. SHE gets off on emasculated Craig at every opportunity. She thinks all that & a bag of chips. SHE’S not!”added a third.
“Paige is mentally checked out from that relationship. Craig is starting to give her the ick,”commented one.
Community Reactions: Divided Opinions
The audience appeared split, with some siding with Paige while others supported Craig.
“Craig fumbled Paige by trying to cage her and stop her bag. I knew I was right to be team Paige,”an X user wrote.
“Craig is selfish. He can’t support Paige, which is why she knows it will be a problem when she is prioritizing her growing career. She can support him in getting sober but he can’t support her,”another user wrote.
“Paige emotionally left that relationship with Craig way before she broke up with him,”commented one.
“Paige really is that B**ch. Craig, you dodged a bullet,”wrote another.
In-Depth Discussion: Episode Highlights
During their conversation on the show, Paige confronted Craig regarding his feelings about her priorities. Although Craig stated he had concerns, Paige clarified that her career’s evolution was something she didn’t want to affect him negatively.
In response to Craig’s assertion that he never claimed she didn’t prioritize him, Paige reminded him that he expressed concern over potentially being forgotten due to her upcoming tour.
“I just don’t ever want you to resent me because I’m working, like my career is way different than when we met, and I don’t feel bad about that,”Paige explained.
Craig reiterated that he was not unhappy with her advancements but rather sought clarity on how he fit into her evolving life. Paige proposed they check in on their relationship dynamics periodically, jokingly stating she would give him a ‘status update’ to determine if he was still ’employed’ in her life.
