Following her Instagram apology for the 'Scamanda' scandal tied to her post-divorce romance with West Wilson, Summer House star Amanda Batula was spotted in New York City on Friday, April 11. The reality star, who split from ex-husband Kyle Cooke in January 2026, wore a striped shirt with brown sleeves and carried a bag, displaying a stern expression amid ongoing tensions.
In a recent Instagram post, Batula shared a photo of her dog curled up on the bed, expressing regret for 'hurting and disappointing people, especially those I know personally.' She noted attempts to reach out directly, likely including Ciara Miller (Wilson's ex) and Cooke—whom she hugged warmly during a dog walk just a week prior, despite sources saying he felt blindsided by her quick pivot to dating his close friend Wilson, confirmed March 31. The 'Scamanda' label has emerged from fan backlash over the friend-to-lover shift post-Summer House season 10. It's unclear if her outreach received responses as drama simmers. 👀
