Amanda Batula is officially in her deny, deny, deny era — at least when it comes to rumors that she and husband Kyle Cooke are living separately. The “Summer House” star brushed off breakup chatter at BravoCon, joking that anyone acting shocked must be new here.
“Kyle and I are always going through a difficult time. I feel like it’s nothing new,” Amanda, 34, told Danny Pellegrino at BravoCon 2025, adding that the report must have come from a “slow news day.” According to her, arguing with Kyle, 43, hardly qualifies as headline material anymore. “Same stuff every season, so no, everything’s fine.”
Amanda Batula Explains the Missing Wedding Ring & Moving Rumors
Of course, fans clocked that Amanda wasn’t wearing her wedding ring — again — and she wasted no time explaining that too.
“I never wear my ring,” she said. “When I wash my face, I don’t want to scratch it up with these hard diamonds, and then I have ADD, so I forget to put it back on… and then all of the sudden, I’m getting a divorce.”
In a separate interview with Entertainment Tonight, Amanda doubled down, saying her relationship struggles are “not news.” Even Ciara Miller chimed in, teasing that nobody is jumping to the spinoff “Summer House: In the City” — despite rumors the cast is splitting up on more than one front.
And for anyone thinking the couple living in different apartments was proof of trouble? Amanda says not so fast.
“We’re always looking for new apartments,” she told Bravo’s The Daily Dish, admitting she’s been dying to move for years. Still, she says she won’t budge “until the perfect place arises.”
Amanda also took a moment to reflect on her Bravo evolution during a panel.
“When I started, I was 24. I was actually labeled as Kyle’s ex-girlfriend… so I’ve done so much growing up,” she shared. “Now I’m sitting next to Mr. Batula, also known as Amanda Batula’s husband.”
So — are they fine? Are they spinning? Are we all being gaslit?
