The series gives a look at their careers, relationships, friendships, parties, and scandals.
Conover had just made things official with his girlfriend, Paige DeSorbo of “Summer House.”
I never really had to deal with that pressure and anxiety in [Seasons 1 through] 6.
I would even say 7 because we had just started dating.
It was definitely uncharted waters, and there were some bumpy waves."
Conover agreed, saying, “It’s a stressor.
It’s a very difficult thing that we do when it comes to relationships.”
“Everyone wants to peel back the onions and see what’s underneath.
Turns out that when you do that, it makes you cry.”
He also described feeling like his relationship was being targeted because it’s part of the show’s entertainment.
“You almost feel like you’re in the cross hairs.
That’s an uncomfortable feeling to have.
It can cause you to do stupid things.”
However, at times, that honesty can be painful for others.
We’re not trying to hide anything," he said.
Their honesty is often what leads to drama in their friendships.
But it’s that drama that’s so addicting for viewers to come back and see.
But Conover said they were eventually able to work through their issues and are as close as ever.
Me, Shep, and Austin have our friendship.
Once we work through some stuff, we find ourselves again, and we laugh.
Hopefully, you get to see some of that," Conover said.
