Summer House star Amanda Batula left the stage during the season 10 reunion for quite some time.
When she did, some of the cast members got on West Wilson for not immediately going after her to see if she was okay. He eventually did, and Amanda finally returned to the stage after some time.
After the reunion, host Andy Cohen was asked about Amanda’s walk-off during a Sirius XM’s Andy Cohen Live.
“One of our big questions was, what was the length of time that Amanda left the stage and came back? Because she seemed really pissed. It seemed like a lot of time,” a caller said.
“That’s a good question,” Andy replied. “At least 15 minutes, but I’m gonna say 20… I’m gonna say 20 or more. Yeah.”
On Threads, Lindsay Hubbard piped in with a very different answer.
“It was definitely an hour, if not more,” she wrote in response to the clip of Andy’s comment.
Aside from Amanda exiting the set, her hairstyle, which was a pony bun, stirred up a lot of mixed opinions.
“It looks like when I pull my hair back quick to wash my face,” someone on Reddit wrote.
“WAIT SO THAT HAIR WAS INTENTIONAL?!” another user asked.
Olivia Halpin, who is Amanda’s hairstylist, took to Instagram to share photos of Amanda rocking the hair on the reunion couch, calling it the “bun you love to hate.”
Amanda has been under wide scrutiny ever since she went public with her relationship with West on March 31.
“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 wrote in a joint social media statement at the time.
“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 continued.
The couple noted they kept quiet as their “feelings evolved” due to 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 added. We truly appreciate the understanding and respect as we navigate this.”
