Summer House’s Lindsay Hubbard and Carl Radke are going head to head after Lindsay skipped the soft opening of Carl’s new bar.
In screenshots posted via the @Commentsbybravo Instagram account on Thursday, May 8, Lindsay, 38, reacted to her ex-fiance Carl, 40, appearing to call her “disrespectful” for not attending his event for his new nonalcoholic bar business.
In season 9, episode 8, Carl threw a garden party in New Jersey to soft-launch the business, which he had invested $100,000 of his own money into, but Lindsay was nowhere to be seen.
According to the screenshots, Lindsay took to her Instagram Story following the airing of the episode to take aim at her ex and explain the real reason she didn’t attend.
“What are we in middle school? Embarrassed is not the word here. This man (my best friend of 8 years/fiance/partner) blindsided me and publicly humiliated me on National Television with less respect than you would have for your enemy,” she wrote. “Why ON EARTH would I need to go to his ‘soft launch’ for his bar that wasn’t even opening yet?”
Lindsay insisted that she wasn’t too “embarrassed” to attend the event. Instead, she didn’t want to go for other reasons.
“I didn’t attend said ‘launch’ NOT because I was ‘embarrassed,’ but good try. I didn’t attend because why would I go 3 hours deep into New Jersey, in the middle of rush hour traffic on a Summer Thursday, for a bar — at that time — didn’t even have a location locked in?” she continued. “And that you’re talking about opening in Brooklyn (the complete opposite direction)? Call me when it’s launching, but I’m not going to waste 8 hours of my life to go celebrate him talking about potentially doing something at some point, maybe, in the future. Call me when it’s opening!”
After seeing her Instagram rant, Carl also weighed in — and his response was shared via the Commentsbybravo Instagram account. He argued that the “embarrassed” comment wasn’t specifically to do with her no-show at the soft opening.
“This had nothing to do with her coming to NJ or the Soft Bar event. Zero,” he wrote. “I was asked a question about Kyle about why she’s making jabs all summer and I responded with an opinion in the moment and I regret even saying anything about her cause here we are with the post-episode story rant and bullet points about something that hasn’t nothing to do with that conversation.”
Hours later, the Commentsbybravo Instagram account shared another update after Lindsay spotted Carl’s response and reacted.
“Hey Carl… if all you’re getting from me are ‘jabs,’ after the insane disrespect and gaslighting you showed me the season before, you should be thanking your lucky stars,” she wrote in response. “Seems like someone is a little soft… I owe you literally nothing. I shared a space with you all summer, we are not friends, nor will we ever be.”
Lindsay and Carl were part of the original cast when Summer House premiered in 2017 and eventually became an item after starting out as friends. They announced their engagement in 2022 before things turned sour, and they called time on their relationship in August 2023.
