Taylor spoke about her bond with Radke during a visit to Decider’s studio, describing him as a strong support during her first days in the Hamptons house.
“He’s the kindest human being I’ve ever met in my entire life,” Taylor said.
“He just took care of me and was so sweet and so gentle. I was really going through it mentally.”
She referenced her emotional first dinner with the cast, where she opened up about her previous breakup.
“I mean, I cried immediately,” Taylor said. “I was not in a good place mentally. I struggled a lot with just depression and anxiety throughout that time. That traumatic breakup, I had not worked through at all. He was so, so, so sweet and so there for me and always checked on me. We’re very close, and I adore him a lot.”
The season 10 trailer later showed Radke and Taylor kissing, sparking speculation about a possible summer romance.

Despite the buzz, Taylor said Hubbard did not have a dramatic reaction to the situation.
“Lindsay is living her best life. Lindsay is busy being a MILF,” Taylor said. “I don’t think Lindsay’s worried about Carl.”
At this point in the season, Hubbard has not yet met the new cast members. She also has not returned to the Hamptons house since welcoming her daughter, Gemma, whom she shares with ex-boyfriend Turner Kufe.
Taylor also discussed her relationship with Radke during an appearance on Page Six’s “Virtual Reali-Tea,” addressing their on-screen kiss.
“He’s a great kisser. I saw him yesterday. I love him,” Taylor said. “It’s just… It’s a vibe. I love him. I adore him. He’s a little bit older than me. I’m totally fine with an age gap.”
While Taylor acknowledged that she and Radke may not be looking for the exact same things long term, she emphasized their connection.
“Him and I, from the second we met, just opened up so much,” she said. “We’re just always off in a corner together. I’m running to talk to him, and we’re having these really long conversations together… We just click.”
“Summer House” airs Tuesday nights at 8/7c on Bravo, with new episodes streaming the next day on Peacock.
