As the countdown to the Summer House reunion’s airing continues, Lindsay Hubbard has revealed insight into its filming.
During a Tuesday, April 28, appearance on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen, Lindsay, 39, reflected on the Thursday, April 23, filming event that reunited the Bravo reality TV series’ cast.
Lindsay rehashed to Cohen, 57, how she got to confront West Wilson about posting a March 6 Instagram Story of his ex, Ciara Miller, playing with Lindsay’s daughter Gemma, 16 months. “That really pissed me off,” Lindsay said before Cohen mentioned that the post may have been “distracting people” from speculating over his secret relationship with Amanda Batula. (After weeks of speculation, West, 31, and Amanda, 34, announced they were dating via a joint Instagram post on March 31.)
“Yeah, he used my child as click bait to, sort of, cover up his relationship, and I didn’t like that,” Lindsay continued. “And we talk about it at the reunion.”
Lindsay Hubbard Shuts Down ‘Summer House’ Reunion Rumors: ‘I’m Activated’
Cohen, who hosted the reunion which is set to air on Bravo in multiple parts from Tuesday, May 26, then threw in his own insight from the event’s filming. “You told him so at the reunion,” Cohen began. “If ya’ll want to know if Lindsay was activated … there was one point where I was trying to talk to West, Ciara, Kyle [Cooke] and Amanda, and Lindsay is, like, all over me. I’m like, ‘Stop,’” he said.
Lindsay further reflected on the filming, noting, “I’ve been on Summer House for 10 years and we’ve done these reunions for nine of them, and honestly this was one of the most intense, dramatic reunions that I have ever experienced.”
Cohen agreed before referencing the recent audio leak drama that saw the network launch an official investigation over breached trust.
“Leaks be damned, you’ve heard this much of it,” Cohen told the audience, gesturing a small portion with two fingers. Lindsay then jumped in with yet another tantalising teaser from the event. “I had to beg Andy for a pee break, I was, like, ‘Please, let us go pee,’” she recalled, to which Cohen responded, “I complied.”
Lindsay’s WWHL appearance also covered where she currently stands with West and Amanda. In response to Cohen asking whether Lindsay had been in touch with the couple “outside of the reunion,” Lindsay confirmed that West texted her. “We filmed the reunion on Thursday, Amanda texted me on Friday, I responded saying, ‘I’m on my way to Stagecoach,’ and then West texted me on Sunday night, also still at Stagecoach, and I just haven’t responded to him,” Lindsay shared. “It’s going to take time for me to respond to him.”
When asked whether she “will see” Amanda, Lindsay added that she didn’t know — yet. “I’m a little busy,” she told Cohen. “So, we’ll see.” Lindsay also reflected on how she formed a firm friendship with Amanda while the duo filmed the forthcoming Bravo reality series In the City together.
“I had Amanda’s back. This whole situation has disappointed me a lot,” Lindsay said on WWHL.
Fans were offered a glimpse into the highly-anticipated reunion when the leaked audio hit social media hours after the Summer House cast gathered in New York City last week to break down the ongoing drama over Amanda and West relationship and more. In the purported audio, Ciara confronted former BFF Amanda about dating her ex after denying it to her, and other cast members, for several months.
