Housewives Nightcap: Episode from February 6th, “Lindsay Hubbard Gives Update On Mom Life, Boyfriend & New Season Of 'Summer House' w/ Ex Carl”

Feeling different about romance (Timestamp: 9:39) - Lindsay: Wait, and also, Em, congratulations. What the hell? Can we just take a moment? One year ago, it was February of 2024. I came to the studio. We had a conversation. - Lindsay: We then, after we filmed in studio, we went into the green room and we were just like shit talking guys and talking about all this stuff, talking about my ex, you know, a couple of your exes. Here we are one year later. I have a baby. You're engaged and in love. What is going on? - Emily: My fiance has a baby. So, I have a baby now too. My fiance has a daughter. So, I love it though. We got engaged within eight months, so it was really fast. So, I'm like you. I'm on the fast plan. I love it. - Lauren: I think when you know, you know, right? - Emily: When you know, you know. - Lauren: And it's clear that you also know Lindsay - Lindsay: I took on a completely different mindset in the romantic department after my breakup with Carl, right? And I think even though I got pregnant and then now have a baby, I have this mindset that like, I'm not putting the pressure on the romantic department and because I have the baby now. That was my ultimate goal. - Lindsay: And now I can take my time to make sure that my romantic relationship is compatible and is going to go the distance. I think that what I learned from my relationship with Carl is that nothing is guaranteed, and especially with men. And even in marriage, it's not guaranteed. - Lindsay: I've said this all throughout my current relationship and all throughout the last year. I'm not thinking about engagement and marriage still right now. I am just like, just living in the present as it comes. And if it happens for me, amazing. And if it doesn't, then it wasn't meant to be. But I got my fairytale.

I know last time we talked, you and your partner weren't living together. You guys were still going really slow in that front. Is that still the case? (timestamp: 11:53) - Lindsay: The sequence of events is crazy. I had just signed my lease. I had just re-signed my lease in March last year, and found out in April that I was pregnant. In my mind, like I said, okay, look, I don't know where this relationship is going to go, but I'm going to have a baby. - Lindsay: My lease currently isn't up until June, and I am trying to figure out, like now in my mind, like where's the best school districts in New York? You know, who of my friends have babies where I can have mom friends, and where is Gemma going to thrive? - Lindsay: Where are we going to thrive? So yeah, so I am just now starting to think about like where that move is going to take us, but yeah, my lease isn't up until June, and I'm still just trying to survive newborn life.

You guys are learning how to co-parent, which is not normally what happens at the beginning of a relationship, but I think it's really good. You're getting strong. (Timestamp: 13:08) - Lindsay: Yeah, no, I mean, Turner was incredible, the last month of my pregnancy, we didn't really know, is she gonna come early? Is she gonna come on time? - Lindsay: Is she gonna come late? And then when she came and then he had paternity leave, so he was pretty much with me nonstop throughout that entire process, which was so incredible, but now he's back at work. So it's me and Gemma girl, just grinding it out day and night over here.

Carl saying I’ll pray for you to Lindsay in the Summer House trailer (Timestamp: 18:19) - Emily: Well, we're all happy to see that Carl has been praying for you, which he says in the trailer - Lindsay: You know, I have to laugh at it, honestly. Because like, I've never seen this guy pray a day in his life, ever. And like, also, I don't think I've ever seen him go to church. And I'm like, what? Okay, pray for me. - Emily: What was that scene? - Lindsay: It's just the same smoke and mirrors that this guy has all the time. It's just like, this is why I laugh because it's like, okay, do you even know how to pray? I don't know. He should focus his prayers on himself, not even thinking about you.

Did you kind of avoid each other in this house this season? (timestamp: 18:59) - Lindsay: I think I did my best, but you're living in a house together, it's hard to avoid each other. I found it difficult to make eye contact with him because here's a guy who, you know, blindsided me and, and just whatever, we all know how that breakup went, disrespected me in a million different ways. - Lindsay: Yet, here we are, I'm pregnant, and I have a clear vision of my future, right? I look down, I see a growing belly, and I know what my future entails. Then I look at him and it's a clear vision of my past. So, for me, it's hard to avoid the guy, but at the same time, I just wasn't really focused on him because he's my past.

Were you surprised by Paige and Craig breaking up? (Timestamp: 21:02) - Lindsay: I can't say I was surprised by their breakup. To be honest with you, I'm not really surprised by a lot these days. Especially with our cast, we have a way of just hitting everyone with shocking news left and right. But yeah, I can't really say I was that surprised when I saw the news, but I feel for her and I feel for them. It's a public breakup and it's never easy.

Did you give Paige any advice? (Timestamp: 21:38) - Lindsay: Paige is a very savvy girl. I don't think she doesn't need advice from me and probably shouldn't take it because I'm the last person. I'm always playing catch up to what's going on in my life and Paige is the one delegating.

I also feel, I think it's because Southern Charm is airing right now, that a lot of fans are pointing the finger at Paige. It's like that's the reason for their breakup, but I kind of think that maybe we'll see more now that Summer House is going to air, that maybe it wasn't, maybe it was like a little Craig. (timestamp: 21:58) - Lindsay: Paige has been communicating with him all along about, you know, a lot of things, right? She’s been pretty honest with him about not wanting to move to Charleston. We as viewers and outsiders have had a front row seat to like just how honest she's always been with him. - Lindsay: There's a reason why no one's really surprised by this. And it's because Paige has always communicated with him. It's on him if he wants to believe it or not. And I think ultimately, I don't know, they've been having these conversations for years. It's not exactly like this is like big, shocking news to anyone.

This season, looks like we are going to see a love triangle (Timestamp: 23:04) - The hosts have watched episode 1 of season 9 but Lindsay hasn’t watched it yet - Emily: Well, you have new cast members and it looks like there's a little bit of a love triangle that forms this season between one of the new girls, Ciara and Jesse. So what did you think of the new girls? - Lindsay: Oh, I didn't realize. Okay, again, I haven't seen episode one. - Both hosts at the same time say “it was in the teaser.” - Lauren: It sounds like Jesse and Ciara might be like a little of a thing. And then what's her name? Lexi. And then Jesse. It looks like Jesse's just kind of being a player. I don't know. - Lindsay: All the guys on our show are players. And I mean, Kyle's married, so we're going to leave him out of this conversation. But yeah, Jesse's always been a flirt. And he was single last season where it was kind of like no one really saw. But I would say Jesse was a player last season. This season, I think he's a flirt.

Will we see a better side of West? (Timestamp: 24:09) - Lindsay: I can't really like get a gauge of him this season. He all summer long was just like highly terrified of Ciara. And basically, it was just like didn't do much. - Lauren: Honestly, rightfully so. Don't cross Ciara - Lindsay: Yeah, I know. But at the at the same time, we're on a reality show and you got to fucking do your job and perform and like, you know, not even perform, just like talk about anything. And I didn't, it felt like pulling teeth with West a lot of the times. - Lindsay: I will say, though, you know, I really got a lot closer with both Jesse and West this summer or last summer, this season. I really, despite everything else, and the same thing with the girls, like I got really close with the girls. I got really close with, or a lot closer with the guys more so than I had in the last couple of years. - Lindsay: And I think that's because I just was by myself. And I think, in really paying attention to the now nine seasons of Lindsay on Summer House, I operate better individually. I've been in relationships, out of relationships, single Lindsay, engaged Lindsay, planning a wedding Lindsay, pregnant Lindsay. - Lindsay: Just watching the patterns of who I am in this environment, I just operate better as an individual. And like, even this season, I'm in a relationship, but I am thriving as like Lindsay. - Lindsay: So I think given that I was able to just form relationships and friendships on an individual level with everyone, I have not been able to do before. And it was really fun. And like, and I just had fun with it, you know?

Turner, he's very like private. Are we going to learn a little bit more about him on Summer House this season, or did you really keep your lips tight? (timestamp: 26:28) - Lindsay: No, I mean, I've always just been like a very open book, even since before reality TV. I'm a sharer, I'm a storyteller, I like to communicate, whatever. Yeah, of course I talk about my relationship and everything that goes on in my summertime. - Lindsay: But there wasn't like much, like he was just, he was very incredible over summer. We’re in a good place, so it's like not like this big drama filled event to talk about. So, but yeah, of course I talk about him.

Is it time to kind of retire the share house and move into perhaps RHONY? They are casting, they've announced it. They're looking online. You would be the perfect fit. (timestamp: 27:39) - Lindsay: Wink, wink, nudge, nudge. I, you know, a lot of people have been bringing this up to me recently. I think also because like RHONY just ended, we just saw the, you know, the second part of the reunion, but I think it's not up to me. - Lindsay: I, it's just not up to me. You know, it's up to the powers that be. And I think they need to figure it out. And it's very flattering and amazing that, you know, people obviously see something in me that is made for reality TV and want to continue allowing me the opportunity to entertain them on whatever platform. So I just need all the powers that be to figure out what platform that is so that I can, you know, move in one direction or another. - Lindsay: I text with Erin all the time. She’s now pregnant. I really get along with her. We have mutual friends. And yeah, so I, and I met the other girls, you know, in passing, whether it was BravoCon or different events.

Would you go back to summer house? (Timestamp: 31:20) - Lindsay: I am here for any and all like television TV shows, because clearly my life just moves at the speed of light, and you need a camera on me because shit just happens and it makes for good TV.
