Summer House's Lindsay Hubbard Serves Up Post-Baby Fitness Goals with Pickleball
New York, April 1, 2025 – Just months after welcoming her first child, daughter Gemma, Summer House star Lindsay Hubbard is proving that motherhood and fitness can go hand-in-hand. The reality TV personality has taken up pickleball as her go-to workout to get back in shape and embrace a healthy lifestyle post-pregnancy.
Hubbard, 38, gave birth to Gemma in December 2024 and has been candid about her postpartum journey, sharing updates with her fans on social media. While she's embraced the changes in her body, she's also eager to regain her pre-pregnancy fitness level.
"After having Gemma, I knew I wanted to find a fun and engaging way to get back into shape," Hubbard shared in a recent interview. "I've always been active, but traditional workouts felt a bit monotonous. Pickleball has been a game-changer!"
Pickleball, a paddle sport that combines elements of tennis, badminton, and table tennis, has surged in popularity in recent years, attracting players of all ages and fitness levels. Its low-impact nature and social aspect make it an ideal choice for new moms looking to ease back into exercise.
"What I love about pickleball is that it's a full-body workout without feeling like a chore," Hubbard explained. "You're constantly moving, strategizing, and laughing with friends. It's such a great way to relieve stress and boost your mood, which is essential as a new mom."
Hubbard isn't the only celebrity to embrace the pickleball craze. Stars like Leonardo DiCaprio, George Clooney, and even the Kardashians have been spotted on the court, further fueling the sport's mainstream appeal.
As for her future on Summer House, Hubbard has expressed her desire to return for future seasons, although she acknowledges that her priorities have shifted since becoming a mother. "I would love to come back next season," she shared in a February interview, "but we have over the last couple of years done a lot of filming in [New York City]." She also added, "There's a lot of opportunity to still be on the show and participate with my life, but not having to live in the house."
Whether she's serving up aces on the pickleball court or navigating the challenges of motherhood, Lindsay Hubbard is proving that she's a force to be reckoned with. Fans can catch up with Lindsay's journey on Summer House, with season 9 airing now.
