Summer House star Lindsay Hubbard was seen at NYC hotspot with Bachelor Nation‘s Matt James.

New couple alert?!

Deux Moi posted the photo and an anonymous tip. “I was the plus one for a party at Buddakan in NYC last night. It was the NYC launch for a DC-based PR firm called MoKi Media.”

“Lindsay Hubbard walked into this event with Matt James, who it seemed like was her plus one.”

“When I was leaving, I spotted Lindsay, Matt, Carl, Yvonne [Najor], Nick [Barber], and a few other people all having dinner in the main dining room together.”

“Matt had his arm around Lindsay. He was caressing her shoulder in a flirty, cute way. It definitely looked like they were flirting.”

“Thought it was cute that they were all at the same table hanging out and having fun together, including Carl.”

Lindsay and Matt’s dating histories:

Lindsay had several high-profile relationships during her tenure in reality tv, including her once-fiancé, Carl. Most recently, she dated businessman Turner Kufe, who is the father of her baby girl, Gemma.

Despite Matt dating 20+ women on TV, he’s only been in one highly publicized relationship, with Rachael Kirkconnell, who ‘won’ his season of The Bachelor.

Though they did not get engaged on the show, they dated for four years. Their relationship was briefly interrupted in 2021 when old photos of Rachael attending an antebellum-themed party in college surfaced, prompting James to end the relationship. They later rekindled their romance and lived together in New York City before officially splitting in early 2025.

Never forget how Matt dumped Rachael … During a trip to Tokyo, the couple had minor arguments, which led to a deeper conversation about their future. Matt ultimately told Rachael that he was not ready for marriage, did not see her as the person he would marry. He had ongoing worries about her qualities as a potential wife.

Just hours after the breakup, while Rachael was boarding a flight out of Tokyo, Matt posted a statement to Instagram announcing the end of their relationship. Rachael was unable to access Wi-Fi for 12 hours and discovered her sister and friends had found out about the split via social media.
