In an unexpected twist that has rocked fans of Summer House, sources close to production have confirmed that Amanda Batula quietly moved out of the bedroom she shares with husband Kyle Cooke amid mounting tension over his alleged flirty DMs to a social media influencer.
The couple – who have long been considered one of the most iconic pairs in the Bravo universe – are said to be going through one of their roughest patches yet, with insiders revealing that Amanda was “visibly shaken” after discovering the messages just days before filming for the season finale.
According to a well-placed source in the Summer House crew, Amanda initially brushed off the rumors of Kyle’s “innocent flirting,” until screenshots of late-night Instagram messages between Kyle and a 24-year-old TikTok wellness creator were sent to one of the cast members. The messages, while not overtly sexual, reportedly included compliments, winking emojis, and an invitation to “grab a drink” next time she was in Montauk.
“It wasn’t full-blown cheating, but for Amanda – who’s already been through so much publicly with Kyle – it was the final straw emotionally,” the insider tells DailyMail.com. “She packed a bag and spent the last two nights of filming in the guest room. Kyle was blindsided.”
Tensions reportedly reached a boiling point during a late-night group dinner when Amanda, in a tearful off-camera moment, told castmate Paige DeSorbo that she felt “more like a roommate than a wife.” Producers are said to have intervened to prevent the moment from spilling onto camera, but several housemates later confirmed Amanda’s emotional withdrawal.
“She’s just tired,” another cast member shared. “Amanda’s always been forgiving – through the partying, the cheating rumors, the drinking issues. But this time, it felt different. Like something broke inside her.”
While neither Amanda nor Kyle have publicly commented on the situation, Amanda has been noticeably absent from Kyle’s recent social media posts and was seen arriving alone at a Bravo event in New York just last week.
Insiders close to Amanda say she’s not considering a divorce, but has “emotionally checked out” for now. “She’s focusing on her own space, her business, and healing. She’s not rushing into decisions – but she’s also not pretending everything is okay anymore.”
As Summer House prepares to air its reunion in the coming months, Bravo fans are already speculating whether Amanda and Kyle’s marriage can survive yet another public test. And while no official statements have been released, one thing is clear – behind the Instagram filters and Hamptons parties, cracks in the perfect couple façade are growing wider.
