Amanda Batula reacted to Kyle Cooke melting down in West Wilson‘s comments section in a post on X.
After Kyle, 44, blasted West, 31, as a “coke head that blew my ex’s life and career up” in a shocking message to his former friend and ex-Summer House castmate, Amanda, 35, surfaced on X for the first time in over three years with a response as West clapped back at Kyle by calling out his past treatment of Amanda in a comment of his own.
After Amanda saw a message from Reality Queen 2.0 on X, which said, “Kyle realized that when Amanda declined to film the upcoming season of #inthecity that he could no longer control or manipulate her anymore and melted down in West’s IG comments,” she responded with a target emoji.
Meanwhile, in a screenshot shared by Bravo Investigator’s Dana Regan on Threads, West was seen reacting to someone who recalled his past friendship with Kyle.
“I gotta admit I still like you West. But Kyle was [your] boy,” they wrote.
“My [boys] don’t call their partners ‘dumb a** b*tch,'” West replied.
Following the online drama, Kyle returned to social media, where he admitted to missteps in his handling of Amanda and West’s relationship while also reacting to her exit from In the City.
“There’s already enough negativity online, and the last thing I want to do is add to it. So I want to be clear, and then I’m leaving this alone,” he wrote on Threads.
“Despite our differences, I will always care about Amanda, and when it comes to people I care about, I fight hard. Sometimes too hard. It’s been an emotional and frustrating situation, and I have let those feelings get the better of me at times. But that doesn’t mean my concerns aren’t valid,” he continued. “Ultimately, I wanted us both to have the opportunity to share our perspectives on the show. But at the end of the day, Amanda has her own life and makes her own decisions, just as I make mine. I’ll leave it there.”
“Thanks everyone,” he added.
After it was reported that Amanda would not be included in season two of In the City, Amanda allegedly sent a DM to Your Moms Are Watching’s Thea de Sousa, sharing why she quit the show.
“The continued hate from fan accounts and the internet is a huge reason why I decided I wasn’t ready to film again and put myself back out there,” Amanda’s supposed DM stated on October 29. “The bullying has been [too] intense[.] Who would want to put their life out there for other’s entertainment when they’re constantly ripped apart and beaten down for every single thing they do[?]”
Summer House season 11 is expected to premiere on Bravo in early 2027.
