Kyle Cooke labeled Craig Conover a “professional liar” after being asked about his upcoming role on The Traitors season six.
As the 44-year-old Summer House star also expressed regret about calling West Wilson, 31, a “million dollar mistake” and offered an update on his divorce from Amanda Batula, 35, Kyle shared his thoughts about how well Craig, 37, of Southern Charm, would do on the Peacock competition series.
“The guy’s a professional liar,” Kyle declared, before adding, “Love you, buddy!”
“I don’t know when they’re filming or if they’re filming right now, but Craig’s either gonna go out real quickly or be really, really good. I think it’s like, it’s gonna be a zero or one outcome,” he went on.

As for his “million dollar mistake” diss on Threads, which came after West was cast in Netflix’s Million Dollar Secret, Kyle said that he typed out the shade after having “a couple drinks.”
“If I’m gonna be honest, I had a couple drinks. I opened my phone for like the first time all day and saw the news, and it felt cheeky,” he explained. “It felt funny in the moment, but I’m not trying to stoke the fire. So, I kind of had a little bit of regret on playing into that. Although it seemed to get a pretty good response.”
“I’m pretty committed to taking the high road. But every now and then, I have a weak moment,” he added.

Nine months after announcing the end of his four-year marriage to Amanda, Kyle confirmed that the two of them have still not filed for divorce.
“It’s been a little slow going, she was busy, I was busy,” Kyle explained to E! News last month. “We’re still working on the details of that. It’s never fun to have those formal talks and maybe there’s a side of us that put it off a little bit, but, yeah, we will eventually make it formal and sign on the dotted line.”
Although Kyle and Amanda aren’t yet divorced, Kyle was single and ready to mingle as he filmed season 11 in the Hamptons over the summer.
“I carried a lot of stress these last many years,” Kyle admitted. “It truly felt like a weight had been lifted and I could let my hair down. Well, I don’t have a mullet anymore. But I could just be myself and not have to apologize for everything.”
“I had a lot of fun,” he added. “I feel like we returned to the roots of the show to some extent. Everybody entered single, which is a first.”
Also during the interview, Lindsay Hubbard, 40, teased the upcoming season.
“It makes for a great TV show when there’s a lot of single people in a house every weekend,” she said, “[and] Kyle is a great wingman.”
Summer House season 11 is expected to premiere on Bravo sometime later this year or early next year.
