Summer House: Untangling the Drama Between Jesse, Ciara, and Lexi - lulu

   

Summer House's Ciara on Lexi, Jesse Drama: 'I Still Don't Get It' | Us  Weekly

“Summer House” season 9 is heating up with the Hamptons house guests serving up a fresh batch of drama. This time, it’s centered on a flirty tangle between returning star Jesse Solomon, fan-favorite Ciara Miller, and newcomer Lexi Wood. The latest episodes have fans buzzing about Solomon’s wandering eye and Wood’s simmering tension with Miller — along with some eyebrow-raising Instagram shade. Here’s the scoop on what’s unfolding in this reality TV love triangle.


Jesse Solomon’s Flirty Confessions Stir the ‘Summer House’ Pot

Solomon isn’t shy about his charms, and the March 26th episode of “Summer House” season 9 proved it. After missing his shot with Miller last season because his buddy West Wilson called “dibs,” he’s now making up for lost time.

He teased Miller during a pirate-themed party, asking “Why didn’t you just give me a chance?” and admitting West’s claim held him back. Miller shot back,” Why didn’t you try?”, sparking a playful exchange that ended with Solomon kissing her hand. Later, he gushed to Craig Conover and Amanda Batula.

“I’m not blind. Have you looked at Ciara? She has a heart of gold. She’s drop-dead gorgeous,” Solomon said.

When asked if he’d date her, the 31-year-old grinned, “I’m a heterosexual male. Like, yes.” 

But here’s the catch. Solomon is already smitten with Wood, the season’s bubbly new “lover girl.” But his flirty dance moves with Miller were spotted by housemates like Paige DeSorbo, who hinted that trouble was brewing.

“You can cut the sexual tension with a knife,” DeSorbo said.


Lexi Wood’s Instagram Shade Fuels the Fire

Wood entered the “Summer House” scene with a fast-tracked romance with Solomon — and very little trust in Miller. The season 9 trailer teased a confrontation over Solomon’s flirtations with Miller, as she declared, “I don’t trust her, I’m sorry.”

The tension between them has spilled off-screen, too. Wood recently reposted a group photo from Lindsay Hubbard’s Instagram Stories, captioned “the girls.” But Miller was conspicuously cropped out. For many fans, this was a not-so-subtle jab.

Wood is a veteran when it comes to drama, though. Her past includes high-profile flings with Brooklyn Beckham and Presley Gerber. But, her quick bond with Solomon has her staking her claim.

Still, a midseason preview shows her fuming over him letting “a random girl sick his toe” during a wild night, which indicates that Solomon’s party boy ways are going to test her patience even further.

Ciara Miller’s Cool-Headed Take On the ‘Summer House’ Drama

Miller, who is fresh off a messy breakup with Wilson last season, just wants a drama-free summer. She told Us Weekly that she is brushing off the Lexi-Jesse saga with a shrug. 

“I am gonna watch and figure it out with the rest of you guys because I still don’t know,” she revealed. “In my head—maybe this is just my world—I don’t really see it as a big deal. He’s a flirt. He’s gonna flirt. He loves his female friends.” 

Miller even offered Solomon some friendly advice, telling him to “pump the brakes” with Wood. But, there was no ill will.

“When you think of Canada, I think of Lexi—she’s just so nice,” Miller said, praising Wood’s vibe despite the shade. Fans shouldn’t expect her to leap into Solomon’s arms anytime soon. Miller seems content to let the chips fall where they may. But with the Hamptons crew watching every move, this drama’s far from over.

“Summer House” airs Wednesday nights on Bravo.
