The ninth season of Summer House is currently airing, and even though it’s still thoroughly entertaining, there is considerably less drama than in the previous installment. Still, the show has some beef, as newbie Lexi Wood has seemingly had it out for Ciara Miller. Now, Lexi has added fuel to the fire by throwing shade at Ciara on Instagram. This comes after Ciara reacted to other instances of shade from her new cast member.
As fans know, Lexi developed a crush on Jesse Solomon early on in the season. However, he has also been flirty with Ciara, which has put a wrench in the development of any sort of friendship between the two ladies.
According to Reality Tea, Lexi recently took to Instagram and shared a post on her Stories of the girls from the Summer House cast. Notably, Lindsay Hubbard had shared the image first, and she included the caption, “The girls.” However, when Lexi reshared it, she shared the version without Ciara in it.

This comes after the trailer for the current season showed a bit of tension due to Jesse’s perceived flirting with Ciara. Lexi could even be seen saying that she doesn’t trust her co-star. Still, it seems like a long time to hold a grudge since this happened last year.
Ciara recently reacted to her strained relationship with Lexi in an interview with US Weekly. When asked about the drama from the trailer and the season so far, she said, “I am gonna watch and figure it out with the rest of you guys because I still don’t know. In my head — and maybe this is just my world — I don’t really see it as a big deal.”
She went on, “Once we watch it back and we see … then, I’ll see you at the reunion.” However, she didn’t deny that Jesse is a big ol’ flirt.
According to Ciara, “It’s just Jesse. He’s a flirt. He’s gonna flirt. He loves his female friends, like, he loves the female species. … If you wanna gossip, you call Jesse. He’s like, ‘You got tea for me?’ I love a FaceTime with him.”
Regarding the connection Lexi and Jesse have, Ciara explained, “Lexi coins herself as a lover girl. I don’t think it was uncharted territory for her. I was kind of like, ‘Jesse, just as a word of advice, pump the brakes. I’m not gonna tell you what to do, [but I] have walked in your shoes once or twice.'”
In the end, she also spoke kindly of Lexi, saying, “When you think of Canada, in my head, I think of Lexi, like, she’s just so nice. And then her ‘o’s are super drawn out and she eats ketchup chips.”
Fans can watch Summer House on Wednesday nights.
