Kyle Cooke and Amanda Batula, formerly married and recently estranged, were seen together outside a New York City studio on Thursday, June 11th, after filming the reunion for their Bravo show. Photographs captured the exes laughing and appearing playful, which quickly drew reactions from fans online. Many expressed disbelief and suspicion, with some viewing Kyle's past "protective nature" towards Amanda as manipulative.
Their interaction follows the conclusion of the three-part Summer House reunion, which aired ending Tuesday, June 9th. During the reunion, the cast had confronted Amanda and her current partner, West Wilson, about their relationship developing without the cast's knowledge. Kyle and Amanda announced their separation in January after four years of marriage.
Rumors of Amanda and West's relationship began circulating in February, with their romance officially confirmed on March 31st. This confirmation caused a stir among cast members and viewers. West and Amanda stated they had been "monogamous" since confirming their relationship, though Kyle confronted West about "betraying" their friendship by pursuing Amanda while she was "vulnerable."
