Summer House star West Wilson is facing rumors of allegedly back on members-only dating app Raya amid his romance with Amanda Batula going public.
According to a new Instagram reel that pulled some intel from X, multiple people are alleging West has been active on the app.
“Someone posted on X that, ‘Streets are saying West was on Raya yesterday liking someone’s profile… oh Mandy,'” Instagram user @stephwithdadeets shared.
She showed another post from X where a person replied, saying they “can confirm” the rumor.
“I’m on Raya, and I’ve seen him multiple times, with new photos that he’s posted on his Instagram within the last 1-2 months,” they added.
The intel on West comes fresh on the heels of a new Reddit thread insisting Amanda and West “told on themselves” with things Amanda posted on Instagram.
They shared the following screenshot from a post Amanda made on March 4:
In the post, there’s a screenshot of her lock screen from last summer showing Ciara Miller sent her a TikTok DM and an Instagram DM asking her to text her back.
“It’s like she wants to show everyone (West) how cool she is that Ciara was waiting for her to reply and she’s not replying to her,” one Reddit user wrote. “It doesn’t make her look cool, it makes her look like a s*itty person with no regard for others. Her posting it in March also makes sense after seeing that she was soooo pressed for what, 6 months, about West (WW on the screenshot) writing best night ever in the group chat when she wasn’t there (purposely imo he was playing games with her just like he did with Ciara and she fell for it) and her posting ‘best day ever – WW’ in Feb lmao 🫠.”
“To post this months later after secretly getting serious with West is diabolical,” another Reddit user wrote.
On March 31, Amanda and West confirmed they were an item with a joint statement on social media.
“We’ve seen the growing online speculation, so while this is still very new, we wanted to provide some clarity. 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,” they shared.
“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 added.
West and Amanda noted they kept quiet as their “feelings evolved” since they wanted 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.”
