Where is Summer House star Stephen McGee today?
While Stephen McGee initially meshed with the original Summer House group, forming tight bonds with Lauren and Ashley Wirkus along with Carl Radke, his journey on the show wasn't without its ups and downs.
Particularly notable was his falling out with Carl, which stemmed from Stephen revealing a secret on air that Carl had shared in confidence. This move, while adding to the show's drama, certainly ruffled feathers and marked a pivotal moment in Stephen's storyline.
After his departure from the show, Bravo fans have been curious about his next steps.
Post-Summer House, Stephen redirected his career towards event planning. His professional life took a significant turn as he joined Marcy Blum Events in 2017, where he serves as an event director.
Beyond his full-time role, Stephen has been freelancing since 2010, organizing a variety of events from product launches to weddings, often collaborating with notable figures in the event planning industry.
His career reflects a blend of creativity and meticulous planning, showcasing his ability to reinvent himself after reality TV.
