Lindsay Hubbard’s life has done a complete 180 in a year. During the last season of Summer House, she dealt with the breakdown of her engagement to Carl Radke. Now, she’s seemingly in a happy new relationship and pregnant with her first child. As Paige DeSorbo predicted, the breakup was secretly the best thing to happen to her, whether she knew it or not.
Despite being pregnant, Lindsay wasn’t going to miss a summer of sending it in the Hamptons. Both she and Carl returned to the show to film its upcoming Season 9. There’s bound to be some tension lingering between the two exes, who didn’t end things on a positive note. As summer comes to an end, Lindsay is teasing fans about what they can expect between her and Carl next season.
Lindsay Hubbard can’t help the awkwardness
Lindsay acknowledged in an interview with Us Weekly that her dynamic of becoming coworkers/weekend roommates with Carl after their split is anything but normal. “There’s a little drama because you don’t just act like everything is fine and nothing happened,” she said. “There are past and residual feelings that come up that you need to address … but for the most part, I think it’s been OK.” Outside of real-life tension, it also makes sense in the continuation of their Summer House story.
Even though there have been a few bumps in the road, Lindsay said it’s not that awkward for her to reacclimate to spending summers with Carl. “I’ve known him for 100 million years. We’ve done the show together, we’ve been on every season together,” Lindsay said. “There was a life that we had before we were romantic, and I don’t know if we’ll ever get back to a friendship, truthfully. I can’t tell you that at this point, but I’m not uncomfortable around him.” As for Carl’s comfortability with cohabitating with his now pregnant ex-fiance, Lindsay said it’s “not [her] issue” to worry about. Bring on Season 9, please.
