Lindsay Hubbard commented on Amanda Batula‘s potential jealousy of Ciara Miller on Tuesday’s episode of Watch What Happens Live.

As she also spoke of Kyle Cooke‘s ongoing allegiance to Amanda, 34, Ciara Miller‘s feelings for West Wilson, 31, and her relationships with Carl Radke, 41, Paige DeSorbo, 33, and Danielle Olivera, 37, the 39-year-old Summer House star explained why she shows one-year-old daughter Gemma on In The City but not social media and teased what is to come on the season 10 reunion.

“I don’t know if it’s jealousy … I think Amanda and anyone who knows her has a lot of nuances about who she is. I think there is some insecurity there,” Lindsay began of Amanda on the May 19 episode of WWHL. “I don’t think it’s jealousy of Ciara. I think it’s more insecurity within herself that she needs to work through and seek therapy about, and we did have a conversation last week.”

Looking at Kyle’s treatment of his estranged wife, despite her shocking relationship with West, Lindsay said his love makes her “emotional.”

“This is why I cry so much, because I started realizing how much Kyle, even at this reunion, Kyle loves this girl so f*cking much, but like, he loves her, and it was so evident, and it’s still so evident,” she stated. 

As for their separation, Lindsay agreed it was for the best, noting that she and viewers “have been watching [them] for years, fight.”

Moving on to West, Lindsay reacted to her co-star telling everyone except Ciara that he didn’t want to be her boyfriend. 

“Ciara feels very deeply. We know that about her. We’ve seen that. We’ve had multiple conversations about it. We’ve seen it multiple years on Summer House, so West, long road ahead for him,” she shared.

Then, after saying her newfound friendship with Carl is “very sweet” and revealing she spoke to Paige “the other day” and might “meet up,” Lindsay said she didn’t feel she was “harboring too many grudges” against Danielle.

“It was every year something was happening, but we do have a conversation coming up on In the City and you guys will see it,” she revealed. 

Regarding why she shows Gemma, who she shares with ex-boyfriend Turner Kufe, on In The City, Lindsay explained that reality television is “[her] job.”

“This is what I do and … you can’t have a new show that shows me as a mom without showing me as a mom, right? And I also want to pick and choose my battles. As adults, we learn how to pick and choose our battles so if you don’t want her on social media, no problem. I won’t show her, as long as I can continue doing my job and provide for my daughter,” she reasoned. 

Later, on the WWHL: After Show, Lindsay denied thinking that Amanda and West’s physical relationship began last summer, describing their dynamic as a “developing emotional connection.”

She then signaled Kyle’s poor communication skills.

“Kyle is a terrible communicator. He really is terrible … [he] sucks at communicating … His intentions are pure. He has a big heart. But [he] just [doesn’t] know how to explain to people what’s going on with [his] relationship, and then it gets like, so misconstrued,” she explained. 

As for the reunion, Lindsay proclaimed, “I thought it was fantastic. It’s cinema. Pure cinema.”

The three-part Summer House season 10 reunion begins next Tuesday, May 26, at 8/7c, followed by In The City season one at 9/8c on Bravo.
