Amanda Batula has offered an update on her relationship with Hannah Berner. The Summer House cast member addressed the former friendship during the Feb. 3 episode of Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen, which marked Amanda’s first Clubhouse appearance since confirming her split from Kyle Cooke.
During the episode, Amanda shared whether she’s heard from Hannah since then. “No. 1 question for [Amanda] tonight,” host Andy Cohen said at the top of the February 3 broadcast. “Have you seen or heard from Hannah since announcing your separation?”
“I have not,” Amanda immediately replied. “But that’s not her business — that’s not her problem, you know? She’s living her life.”
Amanda later clarified that she hadn’t closed the door on rekindling her friendship with the Summer House alum: “I’m very open to it,” she said when asked if she had any interest in reconciling with Hannah.

“You don’t ever really pull your weight,” Kyle told Hannah in Season 5, Episode 4 (February 25, 2021). “I would love to sleep until noon. I wake up and I clean the house.”
Hannah claimed Kyle was singling her out. “There’s 10 people, and I created this whole mess?” Hannah fired back before Amanda tried to de-escalate the situation. “He’s not coming at you,” Amanda said, however Hannah made it clear she felt differently.

Andy then asked if Amanda had attended a live show for Giggly Squad, Hannah’s podcast series with fellow Summer House alum Paige DeSorbo. “I don’t [go] out of respect because we haven’t made amends,” Amanda said, referring to Hannah. “I don’t know if we’ll ever get to that point. We all pray. I’m open to [a reconciliation], but also she’s living her life. She’s doing her thing… so I respect whatever decision she makes.”

Elsewhere in the February 3 WWHL episode, Amanda was asked about her relationship with Paige. “What was Paige’s reaction to your separation?” Andy wondered. “Of course, very supportive and just having my back and just wanting me to be happy no matter what,” Amanda said.
Amanda and Kyle announced their marital split in a joint Instagram statement, insisting the decision was both mutual and amicable. “We share this with a heavy heart and kindly ask for your grace and support while we focus on our personal growth and healing,” exes wrote. “It feels ironic to ask for privacy during this time since we’ve always tried to be open and honest about our relationship, but your kindness and respect will go a long way as we try to navigate our next chapter. Amanda & Kyle.”
