Lindsay Hubbard faced backlash after a recent episode of Summer House where she accused her ex-fiancé, Carl Radke, of using cocaine. Hubbard later clarified on her Instagram that her words were meant to be a private conversation and she regretted her choice of wording. The incident occurred after Hubbard felt dismissed by Radke and expressed her concerns to her housemates.
During the episode, Hubbard referred to Radke as 'Cocaine Carl' and accused him of not being sober. Radke, who has been sober since January 2021, denied the accusations and expressed his hurt and disappointment over the situation. The accusations led to tension within the group, with Hubbard's friends also finding her behavior inappropriate and hurtful.
Radke eventually called off the wedding to Hubbard, citing various issues in their relationship. The accusations of drug use were particularly hurtful to Radke, given his commitment to sobriety. The incident was discussed on Watch What Happens Live, where guests shared their opinions on Hubbard's behavior.
Viewers and guests alike criticized Hubbard for questioning Radke's sobriety while not being sober herself. The situation was deemed inappropriate and damaging, especially considering Radke's journey to maintain his sobriety. The episode was described as 'dark' and highlighted the impact of such accusations on relationships and individuals in recovery.
Summer House airs on Bravo and continues to explore the dynamics and challenges faced by its cast members. The incident involving Hubbard and Radke serves as a reminder of the importance of sensitivity and understanding when discussing topics like sobriety and personal struggles.
