West Wilson Details “Dark” Summer House Reunion Amid Amanda Batula Scandal
Summer House star West Wilson has opened up about filming the intense season 10 reunion following his headline-making romance with costar Amanda Batula.
West admitted the reunion felt emotionally draining, especially as he came face-to-face with ex Ciara Miller after their past relationship and recent tensions. Speaking on his Show Me Something podcast on May 6, he described reunion filming as a “darkest form of therapy,” explaining that hearing how his actions affected others was both shocking and eye-opening. He emphasized that his main takeaway is to learn, grow, and become better moving forward.
With several friendships strained—particularly due to the secrecy surrounding his relationship with Amanda—West acknowledged the damage caused and expressed a desire to repair those bonds. He noted that while the process won’t be quick, he’s committed to rebuilding trust over time.
Although the April 23 taping was more difficult than usual, West shared that getting through the reunion felt like progress. He added that moving forward will require patience, taking things day by day, and allowing time to heal relationships within the group.
Meanwhile, newcomer KJ Dillard revealed on Watch What Happens Live that West reached out after the reunion with a thoughtful message. In it, West apologized sincerely, acknowledged the hurt caused, and extended support for KJ’s well-being, even suggesting reconnecting when the time feels right.
Fans can continue following the fallout as Summer House airs Tuesdays at 8 p.m. on Bravo.
West Wilson & Amanda Batula
Status: Together
After the longtime friends sparked romance rumors in 2026, they ultimately confirmed their feelings had “evolved.” The confirmation proved especially messy, given Amanda’s best friend Ciara Miller dated west for several months before a messy 2023 breakup.
“What’s developed recently was the last thing either of us expected,” the pair wrote in a joint statement in March 2026. “Our connection grew out of a genuine, long-standing friendship, which made it especially important for us to approach this with care.”
Hannah Berner & Des Bishop
Status: Married
Sure, the show probably had to move houses this season after comedian couple Hannah and Des decided it would be funny to have sex in Kyle and Amanda’s bathroom, but at least they’re the ones who are still together.
After two years of dating, the pair tied the knot in 2022 in a beachside wedding and trust—the comedians have a ton of fun together.
“He lets me be me, and we laugh together,” Hannah mused to People shortly after the pair’s 2021 engagement. “I make him laugh, and he makes me laugh.”
As she put it, “I really just fell in love with how his mind works. And I really listen to his advice, and I really just respect him.”
Kyle Cooke & Amanda Batula
Status: Separated
While this couple’s long, winding romance was one that every Summer House fan couldn’t help but root for, it ultimately came to an end in January 2026 when the pair announced their separation after four years of marriage and nearly 10 years together.
“I don’t think anything can kind of prepare you for a big public breakup,” Kyle admitted during a Bravo conversation at the 92NY that month, per People. “But I think that more important than anything is just making sure that Amanda is good, and it’s just been amazing having her support, because it is not easy.”
While they haven’t filed for divorce just yet, Amanda went on to confirm a budding romance with West in March 2026.
West Wilson & Ciara Miller
Status: Broken Up
It might have been on-again-off-again since their start in 2022, but West and Ciara might finally be done for good after their latest breakup. After all, West confirmed a relationship with Ciara’s BFF Amanda in March 2026.
But while West and Ciara confirmed their separation ahead of Summer House season 10 premiering in February 2026, Ciara had teased they may have picked things up again, admitting in episode seven that there was some “attraction” between them.
Craig Conover & Paige DeSorbo
Status: Broken Up
While this Southern Charm-Summer House pair appeared to be going the distance after getting together in 2021, they ultimately called it quits in 2024.
“I have so much love and respect for Craig,” Paige said during an episode of Giggly Squad in 2024. “I think he is one of the best people I have ever met in my entire life. I will remain the biggest fan of him and want the best for him and he truly will get the best because he is the best.”
As she put of the split, “It was just the right decision for both of us moving forward in our lives and the direction in our lives that we didn’t force.”
Hannah Berner & Luke Gulbranson
Status: Broken up
Simultaneously the best and worst example of modern dating. While their will-they-or-won’t-they was one of season four’s most compelling storylines, their whatevership nearly destroyed the house the following summer. It’s still shocking to remember these two were almost couple goals back in 2020.
Thankfully for everyone, Des slid into Hannah’s DMs in 2020, and Luke went on to have a brief romance with Ciara and then Tayshia Adams—though the pair split in 2025.
Carl Radke & Lauren Wirkus
Status: Broken up
Carl Radke has a history of bad decisions and many of those went down during his time hooking up with the single Wirkus sister, who clearly wanted more from him than he was willing to give. Hell hath no fury like a twin betrayed who has a protective doppelganger.
But while the duo went their separate ways for good in 2018, Carl took full accountability for their fallout.
“I chalk that up to a lot of just immaturity on my end,” Carl told The Daily Dish in 2019. “Also, I think, just my communication skills with her, I struggled really to be honest with how I felt.”
Lindsay Hubbard & Everett Weston
Status: Friends
As an OG Summer House pair—literally entering the house in 2017 as a couple—Lindsay and Everett certainly get points for somehow managing to maintain a friendship after their tumultuous relationship.
Everett tied the knot with Courtney Cavanagh in 2023 and proving the friendly exes theory, Lindsay was present at their Ireland wedding.
Ciara Miller & Luke Gulbranson
Status: Friends
While painful to watch back in 2021, Ciara and Luke managed to build a—somewhat strained—friendship after their brief dalliance, which brought Ciara into the Summer House mix.
Ciara had an on-again-off-again romance with West until 2026, when they appeared to break up for good.
