The Summer House cast got a healthy dose of what’s in store should they decide to pursue parenthood when Lindsay Hubbard spent Season 9 pregnant at the shared house. And the question now is, will Lindsay’s journey into motherhood inspire any of her friends to have children of their own? Amanda Batula and her husband Kyle Cooke come to mind.
On December 8, Lindsay gave birth to her first child, a daughter named Gemma. Her cast mates are enamored with Gemma, as their social media activity indicates. Amanda, for one, is feeling the baby fever.
Amanda Batula is hoping to meet Gemma after the holidays
Amanda exclusively told OK! that she can’t wait to meet Gemma. But the Bravolebrity is giving her fellow Summer House star space until she is ready.
“Yeah, of course. We’re constantly getting updates. We get photos. I’m dying to get over there, but I’m giving her time,” she said.
The swimwear designer is happy to live vicariously through Lindsay right now, though she and Kyle are considering expanding their own family. It’s something that they’ve discussed while filming Summer House.
“As much as I feel like it’s our baby, it is her baby,” Amanda joked. “Hopefully, after the holidays, once little Gemma gets a little bit older, we can finally go over for a visit and just hang out with mom a bit.”
Ok! asked Amanda if her contact with Gemma was giving her “baby fever.” The swimwear designer didn’t miss a beat to answer, “Yes.”
She then gushed about how much parenthood would suit her husband and Loveryboy founder. Perhaps the couple will decide to move forward with their plans. Up to this point, Amanda and Kyle teased the idea before deciding that it wasn’t the right time for them as a couple.
“Nothing is hotter than when I see Kyle holding a baby,” Amanda added.
Last season on Summer House, the swimwear designer expressed her desire to move to the suburbs in anticipation of raising children. Kyle wasn’t on board with the idea. Hopefully, they can get on the same page now.
Summer House Season 9 premieres Wednesday, February 12, at 9/8c on Bravo.
