West Wilson revealed that he and Amanda Batula are “doing our best” to have a normal relationship amid the Summer House drama.
“Going out in public is kind of scary,” West, 31, admitted during the Monday, May 25, episode of his “Show Me Something” podcast. “There have been so many f***ing stupid f***ing posts on the internet. Once it got to AI ones and s***, I was like, ‘OK, let’s talk about these.’”
West addressed one rumor that Amanda, 34, is “wearing all my clothes.” He went item by item, shutting down the speculation that Amanda had on West’s striped shirt in one now-viral image.
“People do wear striped shirts,” he said. “People just post anything, and it works. A lot of people have been like, ‘She wears your clothes all the time.’ We actually do dress the same.”
West also denied internet speculation that Amanda has been wearing wigs during their public outings.
Amanda and West confirmed in late March that they are more than friends after weeks of rumors. Their budding romance came after Amanda’s separation from fellow Summer House star Kyle Cooke. Amanda was also best friends with Ciara Miller, who dated West in 2023.
During Monday’s podcast, West also denied a social media post claiming that he was discussing getting a Tom Sandoval redemption arc going forward.
“Knowing all my friends that I have a group chat with, they don’t know who the f*** Tom Sandoval is,” he said. “That is not what we talk about in our f***ing group text.”
West added, “It’s not that crazy, it’s just, like, someone made up that they are in a group chat with me.”
West also addressed the rumor that he hooked up with Real Housewives of New Jersey alum Jenn Fessler, which went viral earlier this month after Ciara shared the claims on social media.
“Jenn was pissed. Jenn made a video being like, ‘West is so nice. He’s not trying to hurt anyone, blah blah blah blah blah,’” he said. “I don’t think [Ciara would] make it up, but I’m sure she believes it. That’s a crazy thing to just post.”
Jenn has continued to vehemently deny that anything happened between her and West.
“In all seriousness, and while I can’t help but be a little flattered, it is not nice nor is it OK to post something categorically untrue and defamatory on social media,” she shared via Instagram on May 9. “Regardless of whatever rumors or apparent ‘evidence’ led you to that conclusion, that is the definition of libel.”
