“Summer House” fans are anxiously waiting for news about season 10 — but with filming traditionally beginning around the Fourth of July, Bravo has yet to confirm the returning cast. And now, speculation is swirling that three fan-favorite stars — Paige DeSorbo, Amanda Batula, and Ciara Miller (aka The Bed Bugs” — may be preparing to move on from the Hamptons.
The season 9 finale even teased a new direction, as DeSorbo, Batula, and Lindsay Hubbard met at Hubbard’s home to discuss DeSorbo’s recent breakup, sparking talk of a possible “Summer in the City”-style spinoff.
Are the OGs Outgrowing “Summer House”?
With the original cast members now firmly in their 30s and 40s, fans are wondering if “Summer House” is entering a new phase. Batula and her husband Kyle Cooke are juggling their businesses and family planning. Hubbard recently welcomed a baby, which may limit her Hamptons weekends. And the overall vibe of the show — once centered on hard-partying twenty-somethings — could be shifting.
In an interview with Parade, Batula acknowledged that change may be coming. “There was a while,” she said, “especially when I was super depressed, that I always thought about it … Like, when is this gonna be over? But now I’m in a good headspace, and I’m having so much fun.”
She added: “We really have become a family. To be in your thirties doing a share house with your best friends … is such a rare opportunity. I don’t know when it will end, and I hope that even if we stop filming one day, we’ll continue getting together over the summer. I’ve created my best memories from it, truly.”
As for Hubbard, Batula was quick to emphasize that her friend remains part of the core group: “She’ll always and forever be a part of ‘Summer House.’ She’s not going away anytime soon.”
Could a ‘Valley’-Like Spinoff Be Next?
Rumors of a spinoff featuring DeSorbo, Batula, Hubbard, and Miller are gaining traction — especially as Bravo explores new formats, like the successful “Vanderpump Rules” spinoff “The Valley.”
When asked about the idea of a city-based series, Batula replied, “Of course. Anything that I get to do with my friends, I’m … interested in. But I will say between the three of us … we are all over the place. So getting us locked down in the city for work will be tough.”
DeSorbo, for her part, says she’s in the dark about any official plans. “I’m going to give you a little insight,” she told Parade. “As a Bravo cast member, we are very much the final and last people to find out anything. So if there were to be a spinoff, you guys would literally find out before me. I have no idea.”
Still, she’s open to the opportunity. “I love attention,” she joked. “So I love being on TV. I’m very open to all possibilities of TV stuff.”
Meanwhile, Miller is rethinking her future on reality dating shows after her rocky season 8 romance with West Wilson. When asked about joining “The Bachelor,” Miller told Distractify: “I am not open to “The Bachelor.” I don’t think the odds are in my favor.”
She added, “I think that I should date privately, not publicly, because the general public can’t let it go. Ever.”
With the future of “Summer House” hanging in the balance and spinoff buzz heating up, fans will be watching closely to see whether their favorite Bed Bugs will spend another summer in the Hamptons — or take their next chapter to the city.
