Ciara Miller and West Wilson reportedly “hooked up” just a few weeks before the latter confirmed his secret romance with Amanda Batula in a bombshell statement.
Miller and Wilson, who initially dated in 2023, got together “about three to four weeks ago” after he “was hitting on” her, an insider alleged to Us Weekly on Friday of the “Summer House” stars.
“Ciara didn’t know anything about Amanda, though,” the source claimed. “No one did.”
Another source told the outlet that Miller, 30, and Wilson, 31, last hooked up in “mid-to-late February.”
Similarly, a third person claimed the former couple “were rekindling” and “seeing if it would work again recently.”
However, a fourth insider close to Wilson insisted allegations he was “hooking up” with Miller are “not true.”
Page Six has reached out to reps for Miller, Wilson and Batula for comment.
Miller and Wilson’s relationship began shortly after they met filming the hit Bravo series in the summer of 2023.
The romance was featured throughout Season 8, with the Bravolebrities ultimately calling it quits that December.
Meanwhile, Batula and her husband, fellow “Summer House” star Kyle Cooke, announced their separation in January after four years of marriage.
Two months later, Batula — Miller’s BFF — and Wilson were rumored to be “openly flirty” and holding hands at an event in New York City.
Speculation continued until Batula and West took to Instagram on Tuesday to confirm their “connection.”
In a joint statement, they wrote, “We’ve shown up for each other as friends over the years, through all the highs and lows, and what’s developed recently was the last thing either of us expected.
“Our connection grew out of a genuine, longstanding friendship, which made it especially important for us to approach this with care,” the pair continued. “As our feelings evolved, we wanted to take time to understand exactly what we were feeling.”
The reality stars concluded by acknowledging the “impact” of their actions, insisting they “never wanted [their] actions to cause any hurt or be perceived as careless.”
Page Six subsequently obtained a photo of Miller slumped against a Hermès store in Manhattan moments after the social media statement was released.
Prior to news breaking, Miller obtained a video showing Batula and Wilson getting intimate in his NYC apartment, according to TMZ.
Cooke, 43, alluded to this in an interview Wednesday, saying, “I think [Miller] had more evidence at her disposal than I did. She was trying to, like, let me come to terms at my own speed. It’s just a lot to process.”
We hear that Wilson, meanwhile, was in an “exclusive” relationship with another woman named Meija Moreno when his secret romance with Batula was exposed.
As for the rest of the “Summer House” cast, they are “pissed” and “disappointed,” a source told Page Six.
Cooke believes the headline-making romance puts the entire show in “jeopardy.”
“Everything is still very, very fresh, and the network’s priority right now is making sure the cast is OK,” a well-placed source told us Thursday regarding Bravo’s reaction to the scandal.
