“Summer House” stars Amanda Batula and Wilson West have sent shockwaves through Bravo Nation after admitting to their secret relationship.
“It was never our intention to purposely hide anything,” they wrote in a bombshell joint Instagram statement on March 31, 2026.
“Given the complicated relationship dynamics involved and the scrutiny that comes with being on a reality show, we needed a little space to process things privately before speaking on it.”
The couple shared how they’ve “shown up for each other as friends over the years, through all the highs and lows,” and explained that “what’s developed recently was the last thing” they ever expected.
The announcement led to West’s ex-girlfriend Ciara Miller unfollowing Batula, her former best friend, on Instagram.
West and Miller dated in 2023, while Batula recently called it quits with her estranged husband, Kyle Cooke, in January 2026 after four years of marriage.
