Danielle Olivera is firmly on Team Lindsay when it comes to Carl Radke and Lindsay Hubbard's breakup. She has no intention of communicating with Carl, stating that she is exclusively supporting Lindsay.
Danielle, who has been a cast member on Summer House since 2018, revealed that she has "not had any communication" with Carl since his breakup with Lindsay in August.
Danielle Olivera expressed her lack of intention to do so, playfully mentioning that BravoCon would be an intriguing experience as she finds herself seated alongside her fellow cast members. (BravoCon occurs on an annual basis, gathering stars from Bravo's entire series. The convention commences this year on Friday, November 3rd, in Las Vegas.)
Carl's decision to end his engagement to Lindsay during the filming of Summer House season 8 in the Hamptons was confirmed by Us in August. In the subsequent month, Carl took the initiative to inform their wedding guests via email that their planned November nuptials were cancelled.
Lindsay finally spoke out about the breakup in September through an Instagram statement, expressing her struggle to comprehend and find closure in the sudden and unexpected turn of events. She emphasized the betrayal of her trust and the difficulty she faces in coming to terms with it.
Danielle expressed her concerns in the summer of 2022 regarding the rapid pace of Carl and Lindsay's romantic relationship. Following their engagement in August 2022, Danielle and Lindsay had a disagreement due to Danielle's perceived lack of support for their upcoming union.

The ladies have since mended fences and following Lindsay’s heartbreak, Danielle told Us she feels bad that her premonition came to fruition.
On Thursday, Danielle expressed her disappointment in witnessing the exact outcome she had hoped to avoid. She clarified that her intention was not to seek vindication or prove herself right but to emphasize the importance of having meaningful conversations and delving deeper when entering a committed relationship. Danielle, who went through her own heartbreak in late 2022 after ending things with Robert Sieber, expressed sadness over Lindsay's situation, as she knows Lindsay's romantic nature and her genuine desire for the relationship to succeed.
Danielle candidly expressed her dissatisfaction, revealing that Lindsay is currently "fairing fine" as she navigates the aftermath of the breakup. "I wouldn't go as far as saying she's doing wonderfully. No, she's just alright. Breakups are never pleasant. So, I believe she's going through a tough time."
Meanwhile, Danielle has embraced the more enjoyable aspects of life post-breakup, beginning with her participation in season 3 of Winter House, set to premiere this month.
"I had an amazing time, especially considering the fact that I had just gone through a breakup. I was feeling unsure and lacking confidence. Being surrounded by a group of strong, supportive individuals really helped boost my self-esteem," Danielle expressed about her experience on Winter House, which was filmed in March. "For me, having positive and empowering women around me truly made a difference. They were the kind of people you want by your side when you're going through something tough. They lifted me up and we faced it together."
Danielle hinted that viewers can expect her to bring the same vibrant energy to Season 8 of Summer House, which was filmed during the summer months.
Winter House season 3 premieres on Bravo Tuesday, October 24, at 9 p.m. ET.
