Captain Lee Rosbach and Carl Radke became friends under very unfortunate circumstances. Both Bravolebrities had lost loved ones to addiction. The Summer House star’s brother, Curtis, passed away in August 2020. And the Below Deck alum tragically buried his son, Joshua, a year prior.
Lee and Carl became close in the fallout of their mourning, and both advocate for sober living. The Summer House star even asked the yachtie to officiate his wedding to Lindsay Hubbard before the nuptials were infamously called off on the Season 8 finale of Summer House.
Initially, Captain Lee was a friend to lean on in the aftermath of the breakup. But what of their friendship now?
Lee said that Carl has “been pretty busy”
The reality TV star is currently promoting his new show on Oxygen called Deadly Waters. And while speaking exclusively to Us Weekly, Captain Lee revealed that he has not spoken to Carl recently.
“No, I haven’t. He’s been pretty busy,” the Stud of the Sea answered.
Meanwhile, Lee followed up on the drama from Summer House, just to understand what really went down between the formerly betrothed couple in the months before their split.
“There’s a couple of [Bravo shows] that I have [kept watching]. I think Summer House because I know Carl and Lindsay [Hubbard] — it is just like, wow,” Lee said of the season finale. “I didn’t see that one coming.”
Summer House fans finally watched the full conversation during which Carl broke up with Lindsay. They had been bickering all season about the reinstated Loverboy employee’s career, and Lindsay’s suspicions that Carl started using again.
Captain Lee found the entire exchange “uncomfortable” to watch this season. He interviewed Carl on his Salty With Captain Lee podcast shortly after the breakup, but that episode never aired. The former Below Deck star only gave cryptic answers as to why that was the case, suggesting that it was Carl’s decision to pull the episode.
