West Wilson has publicly addressed the timeline of his relationship with Amanda Batula, clarifying that their romance began only after both were single from previous partnerships. Speaking on the "Show Me Something" podcast, the reality TV star emphasized there was no overlap with his prior relationship with Ciara Miller or Batula's marriage to Kyle Cooke.
Wilson revealed that he and Batula realized their connection was "maybe a little bit serious" in February, following her separation announcement from Cooke in January. The couple confirmed their relationship publicly in March, sparking controversy among their "Summer House" castmates.
"I know we've hurt a lot of people," Wilson acknowledged, adding that he plans to offer "face-to-face" apologies at the upcoming reunion special.
Batula has confirmed she will also attend the reunion to share her perspective on the situation. The announcement of their relationship reportedly left Cooke feeling "extremely let down" by both parties, particularly Wilson, whom he considered a close friend.
Miller has also expressed feelings of betrayal, telling Glamour magazine: "I just never would think that it would come from someone like Amanda, who has been what has felt like in my circle and in my corner for so long."
The "Summer House" reunion is expected to film soon, providing a platform for all involved parties to address the situation directly.
