Bravo recently aired part two of the “Summer House” season 10 reunion. It continued with the cast, including Ciara Miller, confronting Amanda Batula and West Wilson about their now-public affair. During it, Batula walked off, and now Andy Cohen is revealing how long she was absent from the stage.
Cohen took a call from a “Summer House” fan during the June 3 broadcast of his SiriusXM show, “Radio Andy.” During the chat, the person highlighted how entertaining part two of the reunion had been and asked the host how long Batula had been absent from the stage after declaring she needed a break.
The caller noted that it “seemed like a lot of time.” Cohen said, “That’s a good question.” After thinking for a bit, he went on, “At least 15 minutes, but I’m gonna say 20 or more. Yeah.”
Here’s Why Amanda Walked Off The Reunion Stage
Batula was in the hot seat for the majority of the first two parts of the “Summer House” season 10 reunion. During the most recent episode, she could be seen addressing feeling embarrassed about the circumstances surrounding her relationship with Wilson before leaving the stage.
Batula stated, “I felt embarrassed to have to say that I have feelings and have kissed West, and he’s seeing someone else. I felt embarrassed having to say that to Ciara.” After that, “Summer House” newbie Mia Calabrese chimed in, “I mean, yeah, it’s embarrassing.”
This then led Batula to say, tearfully, “I think I need to take a break for a second.” She could then be seen backstage saying she needed to “not be on camera for five minutes.” From there, the cast encouraged Wilson to go after her. Initially, he remained on stage, claiming there might be more he needed to answer to.
However, in the end, he went after Batula. Still, the cast called her out for not taking accountability at the reunion as they had done in prior years.
Fans Are Not On Amanda Batula And West Wilson’s Side
Following Cohen’s commentary about how long Batula was absent from the reunion, “Summer House” fans are weighing in. For the most part, the consensus is that it was weird for Wilson to need to be told to go after Batula. Additionally, many also think the time she needed backstage was a bit excessive.
One person said on X, “Why the F does she get that special treatment? Who else in reunion history has walked off the stage for that long? She did this.” Someone else said, “20 mins doing WHAT? No one has ever done that.”
On TikTok, a different “Summer House” fan noted, “He had not a single desire to go check in on Amanda. That’s wild.” Another social media user stated, “Not Kyle coaching West on how to show up for Amanda.” As fans know, Batula is currently going through a divorce from Kyle Cooke.
Someone else observed, “West not going after Amanda because he doesn’t want anyone to criticize him for leaving as well is really telling. That man wouldn’t put his image second to her feelings. Wild.”
Lastly, a different person highlighted Calabrese’s line delivery, stating, “The tempo in which Mia said ‘I mean yeah it’s embarrassing’ scratched an itch in my brain.”
Andy Cohen Recently Discussed His Process For The Reunion
As Bravo fans know, Cohen hosts all the reunions for the network’s several shows. Recently, in an interview with Vulture, he opened up not only about the “Summer House” season 10 reunion but also about how he prepares for hosting.
He stated about “Summer House”, “Everything will be discussed. Actually, you’re making me think maybe this will be our first three-part ‘Summer House’ reunion. We’ve never had one.”
Cohen continued, “The prep I do is organic. For ‘Summer House,’ I know what the fans are saying. The reunion is going to be about letting everyone speak their peace.”
He then added more detail, explaining, “We do a call with the producers who say, ‘The new thing you don’t know is that so-and-so is getting divorced and they’re mad at whoever.’ Those reunions kind of write themselves.”
‘Summer House’ Will Return For Season 11
Season 10 is perhaps the most talked-about in the history of “Summer House.” Of course, this is partly due to the love triangle among Wilson, Batula, and Miller. According to TV Insider, NBCUniversal announced at its May 2026 upfronts that the series will return for an 11th season.
Currently, it’s unknown who may return, but the cast typically begins filming in July.
