Lindsay Hubbard has been right in the middle of the latest Summer House mess involving West Wilson and Amanda Batula, along with Ciara Miller, and now, Real Housewives of New Jersey star Jenn Fessler.
She’s watched the fallout surrounding West grow throughout the season, especially after his issues with Ciara and the tension involving Amanda. Things got even messier after Ciara publicly claimed Jenn and West slept together, kicking off a wave of online speculation and Bravo fan reactions.
Lindsay’s response made one thing obvious: she’s not surprised by the speculation.

During an appearance on Page Six’s Virtual Reali-Tea podcast on May 12, Lindsay made it clear she understands why fans believe the rumors surrounding West and Jenn.
“Are we really shocked though? Is anybody really shocked about this whole Jenn Fessler thing?” Lindsay said.
She then took a swipe at West’s dating history while joking about the 26-year age gap between him and Jenn.
“Let’s just look at West’s history. We know he’s a clout chaser. We know he doesn’t discriminate, there’s no ageism,” she quipped. “Whatever is walking, talking and has some holes, he’s in.”
Lindsay also hinted the alleged hookup rumors had already been circulating privately within the Summer House friend group before Ciara brought the situation onto social media.
“Here’s what I will say, we have a very tight knit group of friends. We know everything about all of us, we share a house together.”
According to Lindsay, gossip spreads quickly within the cast once one person hears something. She added that the group often knows about hookups and cast drama long before viewers do.
The controversy exploded after Jenn defended West during an interview about the recent Summer House scandal involving Amanda. Ciara later responded on Threads by writing, “lol, because they slept together too.” She later doubled down.
Both West and Jenn denied the accusation. Jenn called the claim “categorically untrue and defamatory” and insisted she has “never slept with West Wilson.” Jenn will not appear in the next season of RHONJ.
West also reportedly apologized to Jenn and her family after the rumors took over social media.
Although filming had already wrapped on the Summer House spinoff In The City, cameras picked back up once the Amanda/West bombshell came to light.
Season 10 of Summer House continues Tuesdays at 8/7c, and In The City premieres on Tuesday, May 19 at 9/8c. Both air on Bravo and hit Peacock the next day. Past seasons of Real Housewives of New Jersey stream on Peacock.
