Though Kyle Cooke kept his composure throughout the beginning of the Summer House Season 10 reunion — even going so far as to defend ex Amanda Batula to Ciara Miller, at one point — his emotions eventually got the best of him while confronting West Wilson.
Amid a discussion about similarities between Kyle and West’s partying habits (more on that below), Amanda clarified, “I hated going out with Kyle. And I made that very clear, and you can watch all the seasons where I say that.”
Amanda’s statement instantly made Kyle, who had already called out the “hypocrisy” of her dating someone whose nights out on the town are like his, become visibly upset. As tears welled in Kyle’s eyes, Ciara rubbed his back, and host Andy Cohen paused the conversation to ask him what was going on.

Before he could answer, Amanda chimed in to explain, “I said I hated going out with him because he would get so drunk, and we’d get in fights.” That prompted Kyle to speak for himself, interjecting, “Give me a break! This kid parties twice as hard as I do.”
As Amanda insisted that had not been what she’d “experienced” with him, Kyle addressed West directly: “And I say ‘kid’ because you’re the most immature, fraudulent phony I’ve ever met. So shut the f–k up. I thought I knew you, man. I’ve had an outpouring of people tell me, ‘Uh, yeah, that guy isn’t who he says he is.'”
Kyle Cooke shed light on why he believed West Wilson had been “fraudulent”
Earlier in the episode, Kyle had asked Amanda point-blank to detail her “understanding” of West’s relationship with his ex Meija. In that instance, West was the one who spoke up, answering, “It’s been public who I’ve hooked up with every once in a while,” while Amanda remained silent.
During the cast’s brief break in filming shortly afterward, Kyle claimed to have “receipts” proving that West had been in “a full-blown exclusive relationship” since February 2025. As the Loverboy founder and CEO explained to some of his castmates, he’d reached out to Meija because his “curiosity” got the best of him. “We went back and forth for a week,” Kyle revealed. “Everything I started learning about West made me question who he is.”
ICYMI: By West’s own admission during Part 1 of the reunion, he’d spent the night with Meija before his March 24, 2026, appearance on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen, despite also dating Amanda at the time. West denied that he and Meija were in an exclusive relationship, however, and Amanda added they’d already “had a whole conversation about it.”

When the cast broke for lunch during Part 2 of the reunion, Ciara, who had also used the word “fraudulent” to describe West for the same reason, hopped on a FaceTime call with Meija. Kyle eventually joined the conversation in Ciara’s dressing room, asking Meija if West had ever “clearly defined” that they were in an exclusive relationship.
By Meija’s account, she and West had actually been dating throughout his time filming Season 10 of Summer House. “He referred to me as his girlfriend all the time,” she claimed. “We knew we were in an exclusive relationship. I go over there the night before Watch What Happens Live, [and] everything was so fine. He was, like, telling me how much he loves me.”
As Kyle informed Ciara, Meija had already texted him “receipts” showing that West had “blamed the show” in his “bulls–t” excuse for why they had to keep their relationship private. What’s more, Kyle teased that he and Ciara were “about to go confront” West about these specific accusations after lunch.
How Amanda Batula differentiated West Wilson and Kyle Cooke’s partying
Just prior to Kyle calling out Amanda’s “absurd” double standard on partying earlier in the June 2 episode, he also pointed out that she had consistently refused to go out with him. Now, he said, she was suddenly “going out until 4 in the morning twice a week” with West. Citing earlier conversations that they’d had about Amanda wanting to move to the suburbs to fulfill her desire for a more lowkey lifestyle, Kyle contended, “Everything you want, or told me you wanted, now is a lie.”
However, Amanda countered that “nothing has changed,” reasoning, “I’m single. It’s a different world.” She also clarified that her issue with Kyle had “never been that he goes out,” but rather that he’s “out too late, and he drinks too much.”
When Lindsay Hubbard entered the chat to mention that Amanda is now “going out doing that” herself, she shot back, “Because I’m single. I’m not married to someone that I have to go home to.” A bit later, Amanda added, “It wasn’t that he was out every night. It was that he would come home blacked out and there’d be rumors about him all the time.”
Ciara, meanwhile, underscored how there are also “rumors about West all the time,” to which Amanda responded, “West was single, so he could do what he wanted. This is when Kyle and I were married.”
