‘Summer House’: Are Carl Radke & Bailey Taylor Dating? Inside the Budding Romance
Summer House fans are abuzz with talk about what’s going on between Amanda Batula and West Wilson, and how it will affect their relationships with Ciara Miller. But amid all this, is there a confirmed couple from the show blossoming right in front of our eyes?
As an OG Summer House cast member, Carl Radke has been through his share of ups and downs on the show, and there’s speculation that he’s now dating Season 10 newbie Bailey Taylor.
So, are they an item or what? Scroll down for everything we know, including the most recent evidence of their rumored romance.
Are Carl Radke and Bailey Taylor dating?
Carl and Bailey have not blatantly confirmed their status, but fans are convinced that they hard-launched their relationship in a TikTok posted by Jesse Solomon earlier this month. Jesse was promoting his song “Guess I’ll Start” with help from some Summer House castmates, including Carl and Bailey.
The clip started with the two holding hands, walking down a hallway, and mouthing along to the lyrics, “I guess I’ll start falling in love.”
On a recent episode of Summer House Season 10, Carl and Bailey met up in the city. Although they didn’t classify it as a “date” at the time, there were some sparks flying between them as they tried their hands at flirting with each other.
“We had some fun. You’ll see some of the flirty vibes,” Carl teased in a recent interview with The Daily Dish. A Summer House trailer also featured a sneak peek at a kiss between the two, and Bailey told Page Six in February, “He’s a great kisser. … It’s just… It’s a vibe. I love him. I adore him. He’s a little bit older than me.” She also added that she’s “totally fine with an age gap,” though. (There’s a 10-year age gap between them.)
Bailey admitted that she and Carl might not be “in the exact same place of what we’re looking for,” but said there’s “a chemistry” between them.
How did Carl Radke and Bailey Taylor meet?
Carl and Bailey met when she joined the cast of Summer House Season 10 in July 2025. Bailey came to the show through Amanda, whom she had connected with at various social events in the past.
During her first weekend with the cast, Bailey opened up about her split from an ex-boyfriend two years earlier. “Super toxic relationship,” she shared. “He cheated on me and broke up with me at Sweetgreen.”
At first, she had her sights set on fellow newbie Ben Waddell, but when he didn’t return her attempts at flirtation, she moved on. As the summer has gone on, she and Carl have developed a strong friendship, which may have now turned into something more.
Did Carl Radke get married?
No, Carl has never been married. He was previously engaged to his Summer House costar Lindsay Hubbard, but they split in August 2023, which was documented on Season 8.
Lindsay weighed in on Bailey and Carl’s NYC meet-up during a Season 10 episode. She told Bailey to “go for it” with her ex, but also warned her, “He probably won’t have sex with you.”
Bailey confirmed to Decider that Lindsay could not have cared less about her potential romance with Carl. “Lindsay is living her best life,” she said of the former publicist, who welcomed her first child in 2024. “I don’t think Lindsay’s worried about Carl.”
