Summer House’s Carl and Lindsay split address at BravoCon 2023
Carl Radke And Lindsay Hubbard shared an awkward reunion during the Summer house cast panel at BravoCon 2023.
Moderator Brian Moylan started things off by addressing the “elephant in the room,” aka the couple’s split. Carl, 38, broke up with his former fiancée, 37, in August. They were due to walk down the aisle in Mexico this month.
“We don’t really talk unless he needs to come to the apartment to get some stuff,” Lindsay told the crowd. “I’m really nervous, I’m not going to lie. I’m shaking.”
For his part, Carl noted that he was both “grateful” and “nervous” to reunite with his Summer house costars at BravoCon in Las Vegas. “It’s emotional. But honestly, I’m just proud to be a part of this show and proud to be a part of Bravo and honestly love all these fans,” he stated.
Lindsay Hubbard and Carl Radke’s relationship timeline
Lindsay Hubbard and Carl Radke went through it all on Summer House — from breakups to makeup and more — before calling off their engagement in August 2023. When the series premiered on Bravo in January 2017, Hubbard and Radke were part of the OG cast of Summer House and have since returned […]
Lindsay also opened up about the costars and friends who joined her on what would be her bachelorette weekend in September. “We went to the Bahamas!” she shared. “The Bahamas was honestly such an amazing trip. … These girls rallied behind me.”
Although their breakup will air during the show’s upcoming season 8, the exes both shared their excitement about the show’s return. “We had a lot of fun,” Lindsay said. “This was one of the best summers we’ve had.”
Carl, meanwhile, teased that “some new guys” will be joining the cast, adding: “Like Lindsay said, we had a blast and pushed ourselves further.”
Lindsay and Carl briefly dated during season 4 of Summer house before splitting. He later confirmed in January 2022 that they were back together, and Us Weekly reported in August 2022 that the couple was engaged.
Two months after their shocking breakup, Lindsay opened up exclusively Us that she was “completely blindsided” by Carl’s decision to call it quits. He blew up my whole life. I was crying, I was angry and I had to find closure on my own,” she stated, claiming that Carl never gave her a specific reason for the breakup. “Now I’m in a place where I feel really good about moving on.”
Summer house cameras captured the moment Carl ended things with Lindsay, which she viewed as a betrayal. “It was absolutely humiliating,” she remembers. “It would have been one thing if this conversation happened during the summer during the normal filming schedule. But for [Carl] to call up producers and then set up cameras and manipulate me into sitting down [so he could break up with me] after we had already packed up is scary. The whole world found out within 30 minutes of me.”
All the biggest reveals and announcements from BravoCon 2023
Gabe Ginsberg/Getty Images Bravo made sure to “mention it all” at BravoCon 2023, with show teasers and even more reveals. The third annual convention kicked off in Las Vegas on Friday, November 3, with more than 150 Bravolebrities at Caesars Forum all weekend. “I predict chaos. I predict people will drink too much and be over served […]
As for what led to the split, Lindsay insisted their wedding plans weren’t to blame. “Every couple has normal arguments, but nothing that would have been as drastic as a breakup,” she said Us. “It was literally the last two weeks of the summer that his behavior and tone changed. There was a lot of belligerence and aggression on his part, and I was very confused.
Lindsay wasn’t the only one surprised by the breakup either. “No one saw it coming, not one person. There were no red flags. Two weeks before he canceled it, I was there [bridal] shower and he showed up. A week earlier I was at my dress fitting and he was trying on his suits with all his groomsmen. It had nothing to do with wedding planning. There was no cheating,” she said, adding that Carl’s sobriety wasn’t a factor either.
Dating history of the ‘Summer House’ cast
What happens in the Hamptons rarely stays there — at least when it comes to the cast of Summer House and their romances. Some of the show’s biggest stars, including Lindsay Hubbard, Carl Radke, and Luke Gulbranson, even have a history of dating their costars. Lindsay, who has been on the show since last season […]
In the aftermath of the broken engagement, Lindsay focused on healing her heart. “For the first month, I allowed myself to feel all the feelings: experience the sadness, the pain, the whiplash,” she explained. “I process [things] by talking about my emotions, and my friends gave me that space. I was able to regain my strength and… [the] confidence of, like, “Okay, I can do this.” The way Carl handled everything was such an absolute betrayal of my trust, and when that happens it makes it easier to pick yourself up and put yourself back out there.”
Despite the outcome, Lindsay didn’t want to take back her romance with Carl. “I will absolutely never regret being with him [and] loving someone with everything I have,” she said. “You learn and grow from every experience and navigate better next time.”
She is also still open to the possibility of finding her forever partner. “I will never give up on love,” she assured Us. “I have a very big heart; I’m not going to close myself off to anyone else who would appreciate it.”
