Why Did Carl Radke and Lindsay Hubbard Break Up?
Lindsay Hubbard on Feeling "Blindsided" by Carl Radke Calling Off Their Wedding
Speaking to ET on February 22, Lindsay said, "There was nothing over summer that indicated a breakup. It was a normal relationship. You fight, you have conflict, you have arguments and you communicate and work through it, especially when you're at that level of a relationship, where you're engaged, about to be married in two months. You work through things, you don't run away."
In support of her argument, Lindsay pointed out that just two weeks before Carl called off the wedding, he made a surprise appearance at her bridal shower. Shortly after that, they celebrated her birthday together.
"What happened in two weeks?" she added. "I don't know. And also, how do you flip a switch that quickly, unless you're either faking it, pretending? ... So yeah, of course I'm blindsided. I'm planning a wedding. The whole season is me planning a wedding!"
Details on Carl Radke and Lindsay Hubbard's Conversation About Breaking Up and Canceling the Wedding
Looking back at the aforementioned moment in which Carl broke up with her and called off the wedding, Lindsay said she initially saw their conversation going much differently.
"I sat down on my couch looking to repair a conflict about careers and future finances," she said. "I was like, OK, we have to get on the same page. Like, we had this conflict the other day about what we're doing in life and how we're making money, and that's what I sat down thinking that we were repairing, the conflict. And he sat down with a very different vibe."
Lindsay Hubbard on the "Red Flags" of Her and Carl Radke's Relationship
Now that some time has passed, though, Lindsay explained that she's been able to recognize that there were problems with her and Carl's relationship.
"I thought that I knew everything about him," she said. "I was in love with Carl for many years before we were ever together, like, he's such a lovable guy, he's like an oversized teddy bear, and I think because of how much I was in love with him, I put on blinders to the red flags in regards to our future and then, after everything was said and done and we broke up and the space that I got between the relationship and myself as an individual, you uncover all the red flags that you were putting blinders up against and that's essentially what happened."
