Lindsay Hubbard claims Dorinda Medley got “really, really drunk” and spread a rumor that she suffered a miscarriage –– two months before the “Summer House” star announced her pregnancy.
On Tuesday’s episode of “Not Skinny But Not Fat,” Hubbard said her fellow Bravolebrity was at a party at Margaret Josephs’ house in early May 2024 when she made the comments.
“I’m not there [at the party], [but] I have friends there, and Dorinda’s drunk, going around telling everyone that I’m pregnant, but unfortunately, I lost the baby, and I had a miscarriage,” Hubbard told host Amanda Hirsch. “That’s what she’s going around drunkenly saying at Margaret’s house.”
Hubbard, 38, said that the rumor eventually got back to her from “multiple people” who attended Josephs’ party.
The former publicist expressed her confusion over the gossip, because she had “always been very friendly” with Medley and even “enjoyed” their brief interactions together in the past.
However, things took a turn in early 2024 when both Medley and Hubbard were reportedly in talks to join the Season 3 cast of the beloved competition series, “The Traitors.”

Medley, 60, was ultimately announced as a cast member in June 2024, and Hubbard announced that she was about four months pregnant with her first child in July 2024.
Shortly afterwards, rumors circulated that Medley had found out about Hubbard’s pregnancy before the cast was announced and urged producers to axe Hubbard from the show and replace her with Hubbard’s co-star Ciara Miller –– who ended up scoring the gig over Hubbard.
“Where there’s smoke, there’s fire,” Hubbard said of the rumors from the time. “Why did Dorinda’s name get looped into my rumors about being pregnant? And if that’s not the case –– like, if Dorinda’s name was getting looped into me being pregnant, there’s something there. Like, why is she talking about this so much?”
Hubbard pointed out that Medley has her phone number and could call her to apologize, but she “never called” her.
“Why are you getting drunk running around a party and talking about how I had a miscarriage when I didn’t?” Hubbard asked. “Especially because I’ve already had a miscarriage in my life.”
Hubbard was referring to having a miscarriage right after she learned she was pregnant for the first time with her “Winter House” co-star Jason Cameron in 2021.
A rep for Medley denied Hubbard’s comments, telling Page Six Tuesday, “The rumors claimed by Lindsey [sic] are completely false and without any foundation.”
Hubbard initially seemed to confirm the gossip in July when she commented underneath an Instagram post talking about the feud, “This was awful! Super disappointing and sad.”
Thankfully, Hubbard had a healthy pregnancy and gave birth to daughter Gemma Britt Kufe with her boyfriend, Turner Kufe, in December.
