As mentioned, Paige spoke out on the viral video on her Instagram Story on Sunday. “I wasn’t even participating, lol. I’m standing outside the circle in the back. The bouquet landed right at my feet. Hey, a win is a win,” she wrote.
However, she hadn’t confirmed whether she was dating Harden or if he was a close client. Note that The Shade Room has spotted Harden in her designs before. Swipe below to see her statement and James rocking her bae’s clothing.
