Lindsay Hubbard has seemingly entered the chat after Amanda Batula and West Wilson announced their more-than-friends romance.
“The new publicist?” Hubbard, 39, wrote via her Instagram Story on Tuesday, March 31, alongside a meme of Alex Henderson from Love Is Blind season 10. (Henderson went viral following his appearance on the Netflix dating series due to his many career changes and arguably shady behavior.)
Hubbard’s social media post came hours after Batula, 34, and Wilson, 31, confirmed they are dating in a lengthy, joint social media statement.
“We’ve seen the growing online speculation, so while this is still very new, we wanted to provide some clarity,” the Summer House stars shared via an Instagram Story statement on Tuesday. “It was never our intention to purposely hide anything. Given the complicated relationship 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.”
Batula and Wilson explained that their connection began platonically but recently blossomed into something more.
“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 either of us expected,” the couple continued. “Our connection grew out of a genuine, longstanding friendship, which made it especially important for us to approach this with care.”
The statement concluded, “As our feelings evolved, we wanted to take time to understand exactly what we 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. We truly appreciate the understanding and respect as we navigate this.”
News of Batula and Wilson’s romance comes nearly two months after Batula split from husband Kyle Cooke after four years of marriage.
“After much reflection, we have mutually and amicably decided to part ways as a couple,” the exes announced via Instagram in January. “We share this with a heavy heart and kindly ask for your grace and support while we focus on our personal growth and healing.”
Wilson, for his part, previously had an on-and-off relationship with Cierra Miller, Batula’s close friend.
Before confirming her romance with Wilson, Batula claimed she was not interested in dating one of her costars.
“It’s not going to happen. I’m not touching any of my cast members,” Batula said during a March episode of Jason Tartick’s “Trading Secrets” podcast. “Love them dearly, but I’m good.”
