The ‘Summer House’ love triangle drama continues to unfold, and Kyle Cooke is now weighing in. Following the confirmation of his estranged wife Amanda Batula’s romance with West Wilson, Kyle is expressing his primary concern: the intense online backlash Amanda is facing.
Concern for Amanda Amidst Cyberbullying
In a TikTok interview with Adam Glyn, Kyle revealed that Amanda had actually warned him before she and West went public with their relationship. ‘I’m good, I’m actually really worried about Amanda, if I’m being honest,’ Kyle shared. He acknowledged that people have opinions but stated, ‘from what I’m seeing she’s kind of getting cyber bullied.’
Kyle, who split from Amanda in January after four years of marriage, also directed some criticism towards West. ‘All I know is West seems to be the kind of guy playing multiple women at the same time,’ he alleged. ‘Meanwhile, they’re just lighting up Amanda. I just feel bad.’
Fan Reactions and Shifting Sympathies
However, Kyle’s comments haven’t been universally praised. Many viewers have accused him of trying to shift sympathy away from Ciara Miller, who was reportedly casually seeing West when Amanda and West’s relationship became public. Online, fans have called out West directly, arguing his behavior warrants more backlash than Amanda’s role in the controversy.
Interestingly, while fans have reportedly unfollowed Amanda, West has seen a significant surge in followers, gaining over 50,000. Kyle pointed this out, saying, ‘I just looked and somehow in all of this, 50,000 people have decided that West deserves their follow. And meanwhile, they’re just lighting up Amanda. I just feel bad.’ He added that Amanda ‘knows that what she did was wrong, and is trying to come to terms with it. She is not well.’
Differing Perspectives on the Situation
Some viewers found Kyle’s defense of Amanda ironic, especially given the context of the show. One tweet suggested, ‘I find it comical that Amanda sent Kyle out to beg people to stop bullying her .. please it’s not bullying it’s having an opinion …. Also If she’s so bad with her “mentalhealth” STAY OFF LINE.’ Another fan noted, ‘I’m watching the episode from yesterday and Ciara is literally offering up her place for Amanda to stay at while she works through her marital issues with Kyle.’
Amidst the swirling opinions, Kyle maintains that he and Ciara have been in touch, and that she ‘had more evidence at her disposal’ than he did. Some fans even argue that Kyle is also a victim in this situation, given his long history with Amanda.
