Lindsay Hubbard hurls some shocking accusations against her then-fiancé Carl Radke in tonight’s episode of Summer House.
Despite Radke getting sober in 2021 after his brother’s fatal overdose, Hubbard claims following an argument in a Lyft that he was “not sober” and alleged he was acting more like “cocaine Carl” than the man she agreed to marry the year prior.
Here’s how it all started: Hubbard recalls driving to the club in a Lyft with Radke, Kyle Cooke and Jesse Solomon. She says that because she wasn’t “with the girls,” she was “worried” it would get used against her — but when she expressed her concern to Radke, he “basically shut [her] down and dismissed [her] feelings altogether.”
At the same time, Radke claims he was in the backseat with Hubbard “calm as can be” as he told her, “Babe, you’re fine. I can see that but it’s not that deep.” In response, Hubbard allegedly asked him what he was “on,” going from “zero to 100” and “immediately freaking out,” according to Cooke’s recollection of events.
Hubbard’s fury doesn’t die down when she leaves the club early with co-star Gabby Prescod.
“The way he spoke to me tonight was like very reminiscent of Carl on cocaine. I don’t know what happened with him but he was not sober tonight,” she claims, before later adding, “Something’s wrong with Carl. Because the way he was speaking to me — he was cocaine Carl tonight.”
Prescod then calls Radke, who sounds completely fine on the phone.
“I hate him,” Hubbard fumes. “He’s such a fucking piece of shit.”
Radke expresses his disappointment in his fiancée while speaking in his confessional, telling the cameras, “My heart’s racing as I say this and I’m shaking from it because it’s beyond hurtful, it’s fucked up and that’s the person I’m supposed to marry? It pains me deep down. The accusation or insinuation that I’m ‘on something,’ that kills me.”
Even Amanda Batula, who has been dealing with her own relationship issues with husband Cooke, weighs in on the situation.
“Making this accusation to someone who’s sober is hurtful,” she says. “But if that sober person is the person you are supposed to be marrying in a few months, that is the most fucked up accusation you can make.”
What’s even more shocking is that Hubbard doubles down on her claims the next morning as she confronts Radke. She tells him he was treating her like “shit” and says he is “incapable” of understanding her experience, adding that he was “clearly doing other things” the night before, referring to drug use.
“I am fucking sober,” he fires back. “You drank all day long and are rude and aggressive to me when I’m trying to be supportive. You shut me down and tell me I’m fighting you. That is so fucked up. I’m not.”
It looks like Radke was right when he told DECIDER there was “conflict” with Hubbard from their “first week” at the Hamptons house.
