Summer House star Ciara Miller got a dig in at West Wilson and Amanda Batula with a new Instagram post.
Ciara shared two photos of herself with a Sephora shopping bag, writing, “Sephora actually rewards loyalty.”
The post was clearly taking a jab at Amanda and West after the pair confirmed their relationship. Due to Ciara having dated West in the past and having been close friends with Amanda, it’s understandable why she feels the budding romance is a slap in the face.
Ciara’s post comes fresh on the heels of Amanda and West being spotted out in New York City at a popular Greenwich Village bar.
Page Six is also reporting that the new couple were spotted making out while out on a double date on Friday night, not long after they were seen at Blind Tiger Alehouse.
“Amanda Batula and West Wilson were on a double date at Emmett’s. They made out at the table and then Amanda hid under her sweater,” a source told the outlet.
Prior to them hitting the town, Amanda had issued a public apology on April 10.
“Hi guys, I’ll keep this short and sweet,” she wrote on Instagram Story over a picture of her sleeping dog. “I’ve obviously been MIA, but I wanted to come back on and say I’m truly sorry to everyone I’ve disappointed and hurt, especially those I know personally who I’ve reached out to individually.”
“For the sake of my mental health, I’m going to start living life with some sense of normalcy,” she continued. “If you see me out or posting online, please know that this still weighs heavily on me. I’m not ignoring what’s happened or unfolded.”
She concluded by telling followers she will be at the reunion and plans to address “any and all questions honestly and directly there.”
West and Amanda officially confirmed their relationship by taking to Instagram to announce the news on March 31.
“We’ve seen the growing online speculation, so while this is still very new, we wanted to provide some clarity,” they stated at the time. “It was never our intention to purposefully hide anything. Given the complicated 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.”
“We’ve shown up for each other as friends over the years, through all the highs and lows, and what’s developed recently was the last thing that either of us expected. Our connection grew out of a genuine, long-standing friendship, which made it especially important for us to approach this with care,” they elaborated.
Amanda and West explained they stayed quiet about their relationship due to their “feelings” evolving and wanting to “take time to understand exactly what [they] were feeling.”
“We also recognize that this has had an impact beyond just us and never wanted our actions to cause any hurt or be perceived as careless,” they concluded. “We truly appreciate the understanding and respect as we navigate this.”
