Luke Gulbranson, Andrea Denver and Alex Wach exit ‘Summer House’ cast

Luke Gulbranson, Andrea Denver and Alex Wach will not return for Season 7 of “Summer House.”

Gulbranson, 38, announced his departure from the Hamptons-set Bravo reality show Tuesday on Instagram Live.

“I’m not gonna be on ‘Summer House’ this year,” he said. “I’m extremely thankful for the last three years of being on the show. I’m gonna miss my friends a ton. I’m actually extremely, extremely bummed I’m not gonna be able to spend the summer with them. It breaks my heart, but I know they’ll have a good time and we’ll be in touch.”

When a fan asked why he was not returning, Gulbranson replied, “I can’t answer the why.”

Gulbranson joined the show during Season 4 but was noticeably absent from the beginning of Season 6. He told Page Six exclusively at the time that family problems back in Minnesota had forced him to miss the first few weeks of filming.

Denver, who made his debut in Season 6 after starring in the “Winter House” spinoff, popped in on Gulbranson’s Instagram Live Tuesday but only briefly acknowledged his exit.

The Italian model, 31, also was not asked back for “Winter House” Season 2.

Fellow newcomer Wach, meanwhile, shared a cryptic but telling message to Instagram Tuesday, telling his followers that he was taking some time to focus on his mental health.

“Everyone can agree that life throws some curve balls now and again. Recently I’ve felt like life has thrown me a curveball straight to my face 😵‍💫,” the personal trainer, 31, wrote. “At first I didn’t handle it in the best way, shutting myself in physically and emotionally. Even fitness, my passion, took a backseat to a point where it took all my willpower to get out of bed or leave the house.

“After a few weeks with some help from some friends, I’m learning to take some time to self reflect and take a step back, something extremely hard to do living within the NYC hustle and bustle lifestyle.”

Wach went on to say that he wants to make sure he is the best version of himself.

“This pic is from last year where I was in peak form mentally and physically,” he captioned a shirtless photo in the gym. “I’m happy that I can look back and use a past version of myself as a goal to strive for. The process is never easy or fast, but you always come out better on the other side and hopefully look back on it with a smile.”

Both Gulbranson and Denver showed their support in the comments section, with Gulbranson commenting, “Jacked” and Denver writing, “My brother everything will be fine! Sending you love ❤️🙏🏻.”

“Summer House” concluded its sixth season in May, and filming for the recently renewed seventh installment begins over the July 4 weekend.
