Reality Star Denies Ciara's Intimacy Claim

Jennifer Shahade, co-founder of F Major, has publicly denied Ciara Miller's recent claim of intimacy with West. Shahade, speaking on May 8, 2026, dismissed the allegation, calling it flattering that anyone would believe she'd be interested in someone who had been with Miller. This exchange followed Shahade's earlier defense of West at a reality TV event on Thursday, May 7, 2026.

Shahade had praised West, describing him as a "sweet golden retriever puppy dog" and urging the public to give him a break amid backlash for his romance with Summer House costar Amanda Batula. Following Shahade's comments, Ciara responded on Threads, alleging that she and West had also been intimate. West then took to Instagram Stories on Friday, May 8, 2026, sarcastically labeling the rumors "news to me" and tagging Shahade.

West and Miller had confirmed their final split at the Summer House Season 8 reunion, filmed in May 2024. Meanwhile, Amanda Batula and her husband Kyle Cooke announced their separation in January 2026. Rumors later surfaced about a relationship between Batula and West, which they confirmed in March 2026 via a joint statement, citing the need for privacy due to complex relationship dynamics.

Jennifer Shahade has previously been open about marital challenges, including infidelity seven years into her marriage to Jeff Fessler. She discussed on a podcast in February 2025 how their marriage suffered from a lack of emotional and physical connection. Despite patching things up, she admitted to "losing her mind" upon discovering her husband's affair.
