Carl Radke is planting the seeds for the demise of his engagement to Lindsay Hubbard on Summer House. We know the season ends with a dramatic breakup just weeks before the two were set to say “I do.” Now, Carl has started showing doubts, and all signs point to the inevitable nature that the wedding wasn’t meant to be.
During the latest episode, Carl got candid about some of the struggles he and Lindsay faced in their relationship. Mainly, Lindsay is super hard-working and goal-oriented, while Carl has struggled to figure out what he wants to do with his career.
In a conversation with Kyle Cooke, Carl revealed an interesting fact about his and Lindsay’s financial status.
Carl is crunching influencer numbers
During the scene with Kyle, Carl talked about Lindsay’s career as an influencer. Truth be told, he belittled the idea of someone considering influencing a career.
“Her business is deactivated, but the way she views it is her bringing in the brand deals is what her career is, but that’s not a career,” Carl said. “It definitely hits my ego, this narrative that I’m not doing anything or not making money. It’s kind of ridiculous.” Yikes.
Then, Carl frankly put some numbers out there as to how much money he makes via brand deals on social media.
“I’ve made 70 grand this year already doing paid posts,” he reveals. “I don’t make as much as she because I’m not a woman. I don’t have as many followers. She’s made 150.”
Can we get a cut of this cash? Based on those salaries alone, if being an influencer isn’t a legitimate career, we don’t really mind. Sign us up, please.
Summer House continues on Thursdays at 9/8c on Bravo.
