West Wilson seems unfazed by his “Summer House” co-star, Ciara Miller, and her accusations against him. In a new episode of his “Show Me Something” podcast, the Missouri native opened up about his surprising romantic relationship with Amanda Batula and how the negative attention has affected him.
Part 1 of the “Summer House” reunion airs tonight, May 26, on Bravo. According to a previous report from The Blast, Miller takes aim at Wilson and Batula over their new relationship.
In the teaser, Miller, who dated Wilson back in 2023 and had been friends with Batula since 2020, told Batula that Wilson was only hooking up with her to “embarrass me.”
“He wants to embarrass me. He wants to get his last little words in. And I hope it works, because he’s with you to spite me,” Miller said.
However, Wilson said that her claims about him are simply untrue.
West Wilson Says Miller’s Accusations Aren’t ‘Worth Reacting To’
Regarding his reunion performance, Wilson said, “I was a deer in the headlights for a lot of it” before responding to Miller’s above claims about him.
“I was just like, why is that something I would ever do? That’s the thing with this reality TV sh-t. So many people interpret things differently. If I tried to fight everyone’s different opinion on sh-t I’ve done, I would be f-cking dead and on the floor. It’s just not worth reacting to sh-t like that. But [that’s] obviously not the case,” Wilson said.
West Wilson Says It Was ‘Hard To Finish My Thoughts’ At The ‘Summer House’ Reunion
Elsewhere in the “Show Me Something” episode, Wilson spoke with his co-host about the timeline of his relationship with Batula. (The pair announced their relationship in March 2026 after months of speculation.)
“We’ve seen the growing online speculation, so while this is still very new, we wanted to provide some clarity,” the pair wrote in a joint Instagram statement at the time. “It was never our intention to purposely hide anything. Given the complicated relationship dynamics involved and the scrutiny that comes with being on a reality show, we need a little space to process things privately before speaking on it.”
According to Wilson, while he attempted to address the “false narratives” circulating about him, filming the reunion was a bit of a challenge.
“I did feel like it was hard to finish most of my thoughts, but the main one was that anything was happening during the summer. Everyone watches that back now and is like, ‘They’re all over each other.’ I do think we made it clear that wasn’t happening,” he said.
He added, “Everything else is up for interpretation, but I mostly just tried to apologize and hope it comes across. I’m not known to be a strong reunion player, so you just kind of get through it.”
Wilson Says He’s Been In ‘Survival Mode’ Over The Last Two Months
Wilson also took a moment to share how he’s been handling the amount of negative attention following him and Batula over the last several weeks, saying it feels like he’s been in “survival mode.”
“I was just trying to survive and keep it moving and stay distracted. I kind of have run out of steam the last few weeks. I’ve had a lot of time to think and reflect,” he said.
Wilson went on to acknowledge the hurt he’s caused Miller and Batula’s estranged husband, Kyle Cooke, before addressing his behavior in the last few episodes of “Summer House.”
“Even though there’s so much gray area up for interpretation, at least with Ciara and I … the end of summer, we were canoodling again. I told [my co-star] I wasn’t trying to be a boyfriend or whatever. I think it’s still a shock to the system, and people feel betrayed. I’m not trying to convince anyone that their feelings don’t matter,” he said.
Where Does Miller Stand With Batula Today?
According to a previous report from The Blast, Miller recently shed light on where she stands with Batula. When asked whether she was 100% done with her, Miller said, “Yeah, for sure.”
She added, “For sure. I wouldn’t do this to my worst enemy.”
Part 1 of the “Summer House” reunion airs tonight, May 26, at 8 PM EST on Bravo.
