Overview
- Amanda Batula and West Wilson publicly confirmed their romantic relationship in a joint Instagram post on March 31, saying they wanted privacy while they processed the news.
- In late August the pair posted photos and Instagram Stories from a shared weekend that show them together on a boat, at a bar and relaxing with friends.
- Producers opted not to include West on Summer House season 11 and Amanda was also not listed as a returning cast member, a decision outlets reported as driven by concerns over cast dynamics.
- West has acknowledged his exit, saying he preferred to tell his story personally and that returning would not have been a "fun summer," while Amanda’s recent post drew both praise and online backlash.
- West is publicly focusing on his podcast and business work, Amanda’s future cameo on the show has been reported as possible but not confirmed, and Bravo’s season 11 cast list has several returning members without the two.
