The cast of Summer House is ever-changing — and season 9 is shaping up to be another year full of wild parties in the Hamptons with some of the fans’ favorite faces.
Season 8 of the Bravo series centered around Carl Radke and Lindsay Hubbard as they planned for their fall 2023 nuptials. However, after many weeks of fighting, all captured on camera, the pair called off their engagement in August 2023.
The season also included married couple Kyle Cooke and Amanda Batula and fellow housemates Paige DeSorbo, Ciara Miller, Danielle Olivera and Gabby Prescod. Newcomers West Wilson and Jesse Solomon shook up the shared house as the only single men.
Despite all the drama, Jesse exclusively told Us in May 2024 that he is “hopeful” that everyone in the cast will be able to live under one roof come season 9.
What happens in the Hamptons rarely stays there — at least when it comes to the cast of Summer House and their romances. In fact, some of the show’s biggest stars, including Lindsay Hubbard and Carl Radke have a history of dating their costars. Lindsay began her time on Bravo during season 1 with then-boyfriend Everett […]
“I think people are reasonable and there’s levels of friendship. There’s best friends and there’s acquaintances,” Jesse said. “And we all share mutual friends, so we know that we’re going to be in this house. I think we’re adults and can kind of move forward knowing that there’s been issues in the past.”

“It is a very different vibe than we’ve had, but it’s not a bad vibe,” Paige exclusively told Us in August 2024. “We’ve had a lot of fun. I mean, we have a pregnant woman and I have used every excuse that Lindsay has used. I’m like, we’re pregnant. I really can’t play kickball today. You know, we’re pregnant, we’re not going to the club tonight. So that’s been really helpful for me staying in bed more. And so for that I’m forever thankful to her.”
Paige, who has butted heads with Lindsay over the years, revealed that she has been “the chilliest pregnant person.”

There’s a lot to cover coming off of last season. … I think viewers are going to be interested in all these different dynamics going on.”
Lindsay teased that there will be “a little drama” with ex-fiancé Carl now that she’s moved on. “There are past and residual feelings that come up that you need to address them. But for the most part, I think it’s been OK,” she said.
Lindsay added, “There was a life that we had before we were romantic, and I don’t know if we’ll ever get back to a friendship truthfully. I can’t tell you that at this point, but I’m not uncomfortable around him.”
