Kyle Cooke, star of Bravo's Summer House, expressed concern for his ex-wife Amanda Batula amid her new romance with castmate West Wilson. Speaking on a New York City street, Cooke suggested Wilson might be playing multiple women. He urged fans to consider Batula's mental health struggles before criticizing her.
Kyle Cooke appeared composed during a street encounter with videographer Adam Glyn in New York City on Wednesday, following a romance reveal that has stirred the Summer House cast. Cooke stated he is 'hangin' in' but voiced serious worries about Batula's involvement with West Wilson. 'West seems to be the kind of guy playing multiple women at the same time,' Cooke said, adding that Wilson is likely using 'the same charm' on Batula as on others. He reflected on last summer, calling it a 'mental mind-f***' due to Wilson's touchy behavior toward his then-wife, which now prompts second-guessing their timeline. Cooke's frustration extends to public reactions, noting Wilson has gained followers while Batula faces backlash. He emphasized Batula's mental health challenges, saying she is 'not well' and experiencing 'dark thoughts.' 'Before cyberbullying her and giving West a follow, maybe think twice,' Cooke advised. He confirmed staying in touch with castmate Ciara and dismissed a recent message from Wilson as a 'half-assed' 'word salad.' Cooke made clear he is not excusing anyone's actions but seeks understanding for Batula amid the online scrutiny.
