Conway told Page Six she has never had a conversation with Jong-Fast. The disagreement seems to stem from the fact that the former Vogue writer - a longtime pal of Conway’s estranged husband, George, co-founder of the Lincoln Project - was the first to publicly hint (albeit cryptically) at the Conways’ impending divorce. The cold light of day suggests that at some point during the run-up to the big bash, Conway spotted the “Fast Politics” podcaster and told her, “You’re a mess!” (Conway declined to comment on the alleged barb.)Īnd that Jong-Fast then told more or less everyone that Conway was menacingly following her around the party circuit.
