Scheana Shay recently shared some interesting behind-the-scenes details about the breakup between Carl Radke and Lindsay Hubbard on the reality show Summer House. According to Scheana, Carl did not initiate filming the breakup with Lindsay, but production reached out to him for an update on their relationship status. There was a group chat involving Carl, Lindsay, and production before the split was recorded, indicating that the decision to film the breakup was a mutual one.
Throughout the season, viewers saw Lindsay and Carl’s tumultuous relationship as they prepared for their wedding. However, after their breakup was captured by Bravo cameras, Lindsay claimed that Carl had called producers to ensure the cameras were ready. She also mentioned feeling blindsided by Carl’s decision to call off the wedding, although Carl denied this accusation.
During an episode of her Scheananigans podcast, Scheana revealed that Carl did not contact production to film the breakup. It was more of a situation where production checked in with him, and he expressed that things were not going well. This led to a decision to film additional footage to continue the storyline.
Scheana emphasized the importance of being honest with production, especially when it comes to significant events like a wedding being called off. She mentioned that postponing the wedding without proper communication with production could have caused frustration among the team. Scheana drew from her own experience of getting married on national television and going through a public breakup with her ex-husband Mike Shay.
While Scheana acknowledged that she does not know Lindsay’s perspective on the situation, she was confident that there was communication between the couple and a producer regarding the breakup. Overall, Scheana’s insights shed light on the complexities of reality TV production and the importance of transparency in such situations.
