Summer House Season 8 Drama

However, most of the group seemed to make up while filming season 8, based on group pictures that were taken throughout the summer. The same can’t be said for Lindsay and Carl, who ultimately broke up towards the end of filming after getting engaged in August 2022.
Sources told Entertainment Tonight before Labor Day Weekend that the couple “were set to get married in November, but Carl told Lindsay he couldn’t move forward with the wedding.” A source told US Weekly that Lindsay “was 100 percent blindsided by the engagement being called off” and has been “surrounded by friends and family” while dealing with Carl’s decision.

I graciously ask for some patience and grace to heal and recover while we navigate this extremely difficult time,” he added.
Carl Radke (Photo: Bravo)Lindsay broke her silence on the split on September 14. “I would like to start by saying thank you for allowing me the space and time to process my emotions, heal, and grieve the loss of not only my relationship, but my friendship with someone I considered my best friend for 8 years,” she said in a statement on social media. “The last 2 weeks have been the most heartbreaking and emotional weeks of my life. My entire life and future was ripped out from underneath me and I’ve had a hard time making sense of it all – with no answers or closure on why. I feel humiliated by how it went down, and simultaneously heartbroken that it happened in the first place. My trust has been betrayed, and coming to terms with that has been difficult for me.”
Lindsay clarified that her and Carl’s breakup “was not my decision, and I do not agree with quitting a relationship (at this level) without trying everything possible first.” She added, “I have spent the last couple of weeks finding my own closure and peace. I am forever grateful to my best friends who have not left my side, and have been picking up the pieces of my heart and life every day from the fallout. I am still grieving and trying to process all that has happened, but I felt it was important to update you all. From the bottom of my heart, thank you for the love and support from my friends, family, cast mates, and all of you for carrying me through.”
