The three-part Season 10 Summer House reunion has come to an end, and there are still many unanswered questions. That being said, reunion host Andy Cohen cannot believe how much footage was left on the cutting room floor. Keep reading for more on what he had to say and how Paige DeSorbo came into play.
Andy Cohen Says There’s More To The Story
Season 10 of Summer House started with Kyle Cooke and Amanda Batula announcing their split. This went down just days before the premiere, which was not that big of a shock. Then, a few months in, Amanda and her housemate, West Wilson, shared that they were dating. He was previously in a relationship with Ciara Miller, who was also Amanda’s best friend. West and Kyle had also been quite close, plus no one knew that they had started canoodling. The blindside was the hardest part, and it felt like the ultimate betrayal. This was all to be addressed at the reunion.
Unfortunately, there is still so much that viewers want to know. Due to that, a special Aftermath episode has been added, which will air on Tuesday, June 16th. However, Andy Cohen, who hosts the Summer House reunions, shared that there is so much more that landed on the cutting room floor. In fact, part three of the reunion could and should have been supersized. This came in response to a fan questioning why footage of Amanda being spotted at West’s apartment was never brought up. It seems that it had been, but so much juicy material never made it:
“I was surprised part three wasn’t supersized. If I had been producing it, I would’ve added [it] supersized. You’re bringing up stuff that is interesting and that I would’ve wanted to hear about too. Yes, we talked about it.”
It was almost a twelve-hour filming day, so there was a lot to go over. Even show alum Paige DeSorbo was brought up several times, but that was edited out. In what capacity, Andy Cohen could not recall. Many have wanted her input on the West/Amanda drama and hoped she would return.
West Is On A Rampage
It was also noted how West Wilson is now on a podcast rampage. During the Summer House reunion, fans felt like it was pulling teeth with him. Then, he went out and has been spilling the tea nonstop. One person called into SiriusXM’s Andy Cohen Live and shared this sentiment:
“West [has been] talking a lot on his podcast about the reunion. And I have to wonder, you know, how frustrating is it to go and spend all this time and ask all these questions and not get much [from him], and then afterward hear all of this other stuff later on in these podcasts.”
Admittedly, it was not the greatest look, and Andy Cohen was exhausted. Other fans feel that this is a chronic issue with Bravo, as they tend to leave out the best stuff. Hopefully, this can be a learning experience.
