West Wilson<\/strong><\/a> and Amanda Batula<\/strong><\/a> shared a tight bond before their friendship turned romantic.<\/p>\n

Prior to confirming their relationship in March 2026, Batula and Wilson dated other members of the Summer House<\/em><\/a> cast. Wilson dated Batula\u2019s BFF Ciara Miller<\/strong> on-and-off in 2023, while Batula was previously married to Kyle Cooke<\/strong>. (Batula and Cooke announced their separation in January 2026.)<\/p>\n

Following the couple\u2019s split, rumors swirled that Batula was romantically linked to Wilson and Jesse Solomon<\/strong>. Batula shut down the speculation during a March 2026 appearance on Jason Tartick<\/strong>\u2019s \u201cTrading Secrets\u201d podcast.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s not going to happen. I\u2019m not touching any of my cast members,\u201d Batula said. \u201cLove them dearly, but I\u2019m good.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t know how it could ever be easy or smooth. I think if he let her do her own s*** [and] she stopped working for Loverboy, I think they\u2019d love each other,\u201d Wilson recalled. \u201cThat dynamic of work s*** is not healthy at all, for anyone.\u201d<\/p>\n

Wilson added that the \u201cpower dynamics\u201d between Batula and Cooke were off since the beverage brand was founded by Cooke.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey both talk s*** to each other,\u201d he said. \u201cI think his is when he\u2019s angry and hers is more jokey, but I would never support anyone calling their wife the B-word. It\u2019s not great.\u201d<\/p>\n
