Get details on the behind-the-scenes moments from the Summer House Season 9 reunion taping.
The two-part Summer House Season 9 reunion was packed with laughs, surprises, and of course, plenty of drama — but what if we told you there were several juicy moments that didn't make it to air?
Thankfully, The Daily Dish was on set during the taping and can exclusively reveal everything that went down behind the scenes when host Andy Cohen gathered the Hamptons housemates — Amanda Batula, Kyle Cooke, Paige DeSorbo, Imrul Hassan, Lindsay Hubbard, Ciara Miller, Gabby Prescod, Carl Radke, Jesse Solomon, West Wilson, and Lexi Wood — for one last Season 9 hoorah.
Off-camera moments from the Summer House Season 9 reunion
Andy Cohen's commentary on the cast's looks, reunion seating chart, and set
After debuting his own reunion look — a custom-made robe to match the Snoozefest-themed set — Andy took his seat and began welcoming each Summer House cast member as they joined him on stage. Paige and Ciara were among the first to arrive, and they gleefully took in all the details of the set that they inspired. As Paige put it, "I've waited so long for this."
Carl and Lexi were next, and once they took their seats on the reunion couch, Andy quipped, "Carl, you arguably have the best seat in the house between Ciara and Lexi!"
Kyle, Amanda, Gabby, and Lindsay then rolled in, with the latter two debuting new hairstyles. Andy complimented both ladies, and Lindsay responded by pointing out that the short-hair look was reminiscent of "OG Hubs."
Finally, West and Jesse took the stage, where they caught up with both Andy and their castmates.
Paige DeSorbo's surprising confession about her breakup with Craig Conover
Before filming officially began, Andy and Paige got to chatting, and at one point, he playfully asked her, "Are you ready to answer more questions about your breakup?"
Her equally playful response? "I don't say this often, but I'm sick of hearing about myself."
Paige also joked that she was sure at least one fan would have a new question to ask about the split.
Lindsay Hubbard and Carl Radke's unexpected conversation
Another pre-filming chat took place between exes Carl and Lindsay. The topic of conversation? Mail.
Lindsay, more specifically, joked that she had brought some of Carl's mail that had been delivered to her apartment, considering they used to live there together. (FYI, she's since moved into a new place.)
"Anything good?" Andy asked.
"A blow up doll," Lindsay joked, prompting Kyle to join in on the teasing and add, "Some lube."
"Thank you," Carl said with a laugh.
The cast's ideas for future Summer House theme parties
During a filming break, Andy and the Summer House crew started throwing out ideas for future theme parties. Among them? Everything from a mock high school graduation to Sadie Hawkins.
