In the first glimpse of Summer House season 9, Lindsay Hubbard put her costars to the test with their knowledge of pregnancy.
“The winner gets to put the contraction simulator on the losing team,” Lindsay, 38, said in the trailer, which debuted on Saturday, November 23, during Bravo Fan Fest in Miami. “The loser is Kyle [Cooke] and Paige [DeSorbo]!”
The cast was participating in an array of baby shower games, which saw Kyle, 42, strapping melons onto his chest to replicate the weight of a baby bump and Jesse Solomon wearing a diaper and sucking on a pacifier.
Ciara Miller, meanwhile, was at the control panel for the labor simulation machine.
“We’re in this together,” Kyle, who is married to costar Amanda Batula, told Paige after the labor simulator pads were applied to their respective stomachs. “Something’s tingling. … Ow, f—! Jesus Christ, stop.”
Paige, 32, immediately burst out laughing at her roommate’s misfortune and noted that “it didn’t hurt.”
“I was just surprised that’s what it was,” Paige explained of her feelings.
The rest of the cast, including Lindsay’s ex Carl Radke, also laughed at Paige and Kyle.
Lindsay announced her pregnancy in July, revealing that she is expecting a baby girl with her boyfriend. (Lindsay’s partner is a doctor, but she has not publicly confirmed his identity.)
While Lindsay’s mystery man did not join her on Summer House, she has not slowed down her appearances on the Bravo hit. Season 9 will be the first full one since Carl, 39, called off his and Lindsay’s wedding in 2023. The breakup aired during the season 8 finale.
“Obviously, in most normal situations — if you could call any of it normal — you break up and you won’t go then live in a house on the weekends with your ex-fiancé,” Lindsay exclusively told Us Weekly in August. “But here we are, you know, modern age, modern people.”
She added, “There’s a little drama because you don’t just act like everything is fine and nothing happened. There are past and residual feelings that come up that you need to address … but for the most part, I think it’s been OK.”
While Lindsay — one of Us Weekly’s Reality TV Stars of the Year — remains unsure whether she and Carl can “get back to a friendship,” she wasn’t uncomfortable filming season 9 in his presence.
Summer House season 9 also stars Gabby Prescod and West Wilson. A premiere date has not yet been announced.
