It's time for Part 2 of my Summer House deep dive! This week's Bravo Paper will continue to discuss the complex and often toxic dynamics of the cast of Summer House. The last 2 seasons of Summer House have turned into one of the biggest "gang-ups" in Bravo history, with everyone seemingly turning on Lindsay Hubbard with no clear reason as to why. But it wasn't always this way...Lindsay hasn't always been a fan favourite, nor has she been innocent when it comes to conflicts on the show, but nonetheless she has maintained friendships and a starring role. This begs the question -- why have almost all the veteran cast members turned on her during the last two seasons, including her former BFF, Danielle? Is the hate justified? Does Lindsay have it coming after years of bad behaviour? Or is Lindsay the victim of a clique of "mean girls", hell-bent on painting her as the villain to avoid discussing their own faults? And where does the show go from here in the face of the divide in the house? Take a journey with me as I rewatch seasons 3-7 to answer these and many more pressing questions about the ever-evolving (or devolving) dynamics of Summer House.Email me your suggestions for Bravo Paper topics or questions: [email protected] email could be featured on an upcoming episode!,Subscribe to my YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@TheBravoPapersBUY ME A COFFEE - http://www.buymeacoffee.com/bravoandbotoxFOLLOW ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA: @bravoandbotox @thebravopapersInstagram https://www.instagram.com/bravoandbotox/https://www.instagram.com/thebravopapersTwitter - https://www.twitter.com/bravoandbotox Learn more about your ad choices.
