Lindsay Hubbard is activated, to protect her privacy.
Anyone could imagine a reality TV star struggling to maintain control over what they share publicly. Lindsay shared a lot of grief in the past year. The tail end of her relationship with Carl Radke was filmed for Summer House Season 8, as well as the humiliating breakup.
Lindsay was honest about her heartbreak but careful in her new relationship. She tried to keep the father of her child’s identity under wraps, but a good rule of thumb is, if you’re a private person – maybe don’t date a reality star.
So it feels like Lindsay was protecting her privacy this time around. Until news broke that Turner Kufe, MD is the man previously defaced by a brown heart.
Lindsay doesn’t “owe” fans more
On July 8, Lindsay posted a detailed timeline of all the events she had undertaken while expecting.
It included, “4 weddings, 2 magazine cover shoots, 1 WWHL, 1 reunion taping, a sandwich shop opening, 1 Kleinfeld launch event, and a magazine party.”
Lindsay posted a series of photos from these events, including a friend’s wedding in Europe. Her mystery man attended with her and was pictured in one of the photos with his face covered by a heart emoji.
She continued the caption, “Most all in my first trimester, and all before I announced. Holding this news has been one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to do! (Mentally, emotionally, and physically).”
Fans praised Lindsay’s resolve to keep the pregnancy under wraps after finding out she was pregnant on April 6.
“All while still keeping the man private is the real flex to me,” one follower wrote.
Another questioned, “Why don’t we get to know who the man is?” The troll continued, “Strange that he’s not proud to be by your side as baby daddy and same for you!”
“Because I don’t owe you anymore than I already give you,” Lindsay posted in response.
An activated Lindsay is perfectly capable of holding her own, but fellow posters rushed to her defense. And after all of that, people found out who he was anyway.
