Paige said during a recent instalment of her new show“The SPINvitational: “I did go to school at SDSU with Xander Schauffele.

“He met his wife Maya at SDSU, so it was meant to be. Didn’t work out for me in that way.”;

The beauty was previously linked with the likes of NFL legend Tom Brady and golfer Bryson DeChambeau.

Paige added: “Never been on a date with anyone famous.

“I’ve had pro athletes or famous people slide in my DMs. I’ve never dated anyone famous.

“It’s funny because I’ll see all these headlines. There was one where I shot content with Bryson and then a headline said I was dating [him]. was one of them, which was so crazy.

“It’s like any time I shoot content with a male celebrity, that’s the headline or all of the comments, which can be really difficult for my job where I work in a male-dominated industry.

“It’s really frustrating because I’ve never dated anyone famous ever, not even close.”;
