Lindsay Hubbard and Danielle Olivera appear to be resolving their differences. The two Summer House stars have caught people's attention for being spotted together after their intense argument on the seventh season of the Bravo show.
Hubbard, 36, took to Instagram on Tuesday, August 8, to share their outing in Montauk. One photo in the slideshow featured Hubbard sitting with her fiancé, Carl Radke, while another showed her seated next to Olivera, 34.
Fans wasted no time in commenting and speculating about the current status of Hubbard and Olivera's relationship. Although the Bravo stars have kept the nature of their friendship under wraps thus far, they are both currently filming scenes for season 8 of Summer House. This comes after their hopeful departure from the season 7 reunion in June.
Olivera expressed her desire for their friendship to blossom into something new, stating, "I just want this friendship... to at least start something new. To figure us out. That is what has been missing in my life and I'm sure in yours." Hubbard echoed this sentiment, saying, "I think that the bond that we have is very special. I am hopeful that we can find a version of that after this."
Speculations about a rift in the long-standing friendship emerged in August 2022 when Olivera failed to extend congratulations to Hubbard and Radke, aged 38, regarding their engagement back then.
When asked about the matter during BravoCon in October 2022, Hubbard exclusively revealed, "I believe a lot transpired this summer. I am unable to delve into the specifics, but she deeply betrayed me, numerous times. Actions were taken by a best friend that are completely unacceptable, and I'll refrain from divulging more."

Months later Hubbard finally hinted at the root of her and Olivera’s issues.
"When we got engaged and her reaction, it was like the final straw. Throughout the summer, I constantly heard hurtful remarks from her about our relationship," she disclosed to Us in February. "Initially, it seemed like she was offering us support as we embarked on this journey, but suddenly everything changed. Her conversations took an entirely different direction."

Fans finally witnessed the unfolding drama when Summer House season 7 premiered in March, after being filmed during the summer of 2022. Throughout the summer, Olivera consistently criticized her best friend's relationship. However, their significant problems originated from the events at Hubbard and Radke's engagement party. Olivera had a meltdown because she felt excluded from the proposal plans.
"Including you in my proposal plans would have made our happiest moment about you," Hubbard accused Olivera in their ultimate argument. She also added that this incident was just another example of Olivera's continuous problematic behavior throughout the summer.
She added during the episode, “Not only are you not my best friend anymore, but you’re not my friend. Zero. Zilch. Done.”
