Kyle Cooke is giving fans more insight into what life at home was allegedly like with Amanda Batula before their split.
The Summer House star responded to a fan on Threads after viewers questioned why West Wilson had allegedly never been to Kyle and Amanda’s apartment if he and Kyle were truly close friends.
The conversation started after fans discussed West’s betrayal of Cooke and whether his friendship with Cooke was actually as close as people made it seem. Some viewers pointed out that during the Summer House fallout, Cooke asking West if he had ever been to his apartment or met his dog stood out as a major clue in the Amanda and West drama.
One fan wrote, “Ppl have been saying West’s betrayal of Kyle was massive because of their close friendship & they’ve also said Kyle is a supersleuth for asking West if he’s been to his apt/ met his dog like, ‘the dog is the smoking gun!!’ If West and Kyle were so close tho, why WOULDN’T West have been to their apt? Why wouldn’t their dog know him? Is that not a requirement for best-friendship? Truly I don’t consider someone a CLOSE friend unless they come over / have sat with me in my bed / know my cat”
Kyle responded by claiming that he was not able to invite friends over for years because of the condition of the apartment he shared with Amanda.
“I couldn’t invite ANY friends over for years due to the embarrassing state of our apartment,” Kyle wrote.
The comment quickly got fans talking because Kyle has previously complained on Summer House about the state of his and Amanda’s apartment. During earlier episodes of the latest season, Kyle expressed frustration over Amanda’s lack of motivation and said their apartment had gotten so bad that he had to call Amanda’s mom for help.
Their living situation also became more visible on In the City, where viewers watched Amanda move out of the apartment. During those scenes, the apartment appeared cluttered, with items everywhere as Amanda packed up her belongings.
Cooke and Amanda announced their split in January after four years of marriage. Just two months later, Amanda confirmed her romance with West, which shocked the Summer House cast because West had previously dated Ciara Miller, one of Amanda’s former closest friends, and had a friendship with Cooke.
