Ciara Miller apparently thought she had something special with West Wilson just mere months before he began dating Summer House costar Amanda Batula.
“As weird because it is, I do feel like he’s my person,” Ciara, 30, tells BFF Mia Calabrese in a Friday, April 24, preview for the subsequent episode of Summer House. “We now have this really weird friendship, and it’s hard to disregard that, you realize?”
Ciara and West, 31, casually dated in 2023 but broke up when the sports journalist struggled to balance his relationship along with his then-newfound Bravo fame. Because the cameras rolled on Summer House season 10, Ciara and West mulled giving their romance one other shot.
“Everyone knows that I’m not probably the most warm and fuzzy person. I’m warm. I may not be fuzzy, but I’m warm,” Ciara said via confessional within the teaser clip. “I suppose making up isn’t really my thing, but I’m attempting to be less rigid, which is a theme of my summer, OK?”
Elsewhere within the trailer, Ciara and Kyle Cooke called Amanda, 34, while she was away and revealed that West had “the very best night” within the Hamptons in her absence.
“When West said, ‘Best night of my life’ and also you said, ‘Rattling,’ was that, like, sarcasm?” Kyle asked, to which Amanda explained her response was “like solution to rub salt within the wound.”
“So, she was feeling jealous,” Kyle added. “West’s best night of his life was the one night I’m not there? Yeah, that feels great.”
Months after the solid wrapped season 10 in summer 2025, West confirmed that he was seeing Amanda amid her separation from estranged husband Kyle.

“While this remains to be very recent, we wanted to supply some clarity. It was never our intention to purposely hide anything,” Amanda and West said in a joint March 31 statement. “Given the complicated relationship dynamics involved and the scrutiny that comes with being on a reality show, we would have liked a bit space to process things privately before speaking on it.”
The pair continued, “We’ve shown up for one another as friends through the years, through all of the highs and lows, and what’s developed recently was the final thing either of us expected. Our connection grew out of a real, longstanding friendship, which made it especially vital for us to approach this with care.”
Ciara, meanwhile, felt blindsided that her good friend Amanda was seeing her ex. (Us Weekly also confirmed earlier this month that Ciara and West connected initially of the 12 months.)

“I read [their statement] with the remainder of the world. There’s something concerning the lack of having the ability to say one another’s names within the statement that I discovered very telling, but I don’t know,” Ciara told Glamour in an April profile. “It’s one thing to experience hurt behind closed doors. To experience it so publicly is like one other layer, after which to need to see what you thought was your life still play out in season 10. It’s a serious mindf***.”
Ciara Miller remains to be sorting through her feelings after longtime friend Amanda Batula began seeing her ex-boyfriend, and their Summer House costar, West Wilson, earlier this spring. “Ciara has told friends that if they are surely in love, she’s going to accept it,” a source exclusively tells Us Weekly, noting that if West, 31, and Amanda, […]
Ciara reunited with West and Amanda in the course of the reunion, which was filmed on Thursday, April 23. Footage of the trio’s confrontation was leaked inside hours.
“This represents a serious breach of trust and a transparent lack of respect for the solid, crew, and the integrity of the production process,” a Bravo spokesperson told Us on Friday. “We take this matter very seriously and have launched a full investigation and we’ll take appropriate motion based on our findings.”
Summer House airs on Bravo Tuesdays at 8 p.m. ET.
