Carl Radke talks dating, drama ‘Summer House’ at VRT ‘Soft Launch’ party

Carl Radke is officially ready to meet!

The “Summer House” singer recently hosted Page Six’s “Virtual Reali-Tea” host Danny Murphy and Evan Real in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, for “The Soft Launch” of her highly anticipated new venture, Soft Bar.

Sponsored by Mingle Mocktails, the exclusive event featured a cafe and bar for the non-drinking reality star, which Radke said was instrumental in helping him move forward after his dramatic split from ex-fiancée Lindsay Hubbard.

“It really gave me something…

During the event, which took place Friday night, Radke gave Murphy and Real a personal tour of the industrial-chic space, pointing out the 24-foot ceilings, antique Italian furniture and signature long green bar.

Guests — including “Summer House: Martha’s Vineyard” stars Nick Arrington and Jasmine Ellis Cooper, and comedians Anna Roisman and Andrea Lopez — cheered Radke on as they sipped their Mingle Mocktails and celebrated his new, thriving chapter.

Designed to be a community hub, Soft Bar easily transforms from a coffee shop by day to a cozy lounge at night.

Radke – who became sober after his brother died of an overdose in August 2020 – emphasized that his menu goes far beyond basic juices, offering an extensive program of non-alcoholic wines and “soft cocktails” full of active ingredients such as adaptogens and nootropics.

“‘Mocktail’ sounds like you’re making fun of something; we don’t do ‘mocktails’ here,” the 41-year-old reality star explains of her menu item. “We make soft cocktails, but the soft cocktails we serve, you feel because they have ingredients like electrolytes, vitamins, mushrooms … not psychedelics.”

He even admitted that the Soft Bar has become an “early” casual place where they can chat over non-alcoholic drinks.

He also weighed in on the tumultuous current season of “Summer House,” especially the marital drama between stars Kyle Cooke and Amanda Batula.

“It’s been a difficult situation. My heart goes out to Kyle [Amanda] big,” said Radke about the two, who announced their separation last month.

However, she assured fans that Cooke and Batula are on good terms amid the divorce and believes they will eventually “land on their feet” after the split.

As for her future on our television screens, Radke has her sights set on beyond the Hamptons.

Although she said she would be open to joining “The Bachelor,” her reality TV dream is to join the cast of “Dancing With the Stars.”

“Summer House” airs Tuesdays at 8 pm ET on Bravo with new episodes available to air the next day on Peacock.
