00:00TMZ has reported Wes will not be rejoining Summer House next season.
00:03I wanted to tell it on my own, but that is true.
00:08But in their defense, I don't think it would have been a fun summer.
00:10Wes Wilson is officially saying goodbye to Summer House.
00:13The reality star confirmed the rumors about his exit from the hit Bravo series
00:17are true while appearing on the Broadcast Boys podcast.
00:21The news comes after reports that Wilson was not picked up for season 11,
00:25following the controversy surrounding his romance with co-star Amanda Batula.
00:30However, sources connected to Summer House told TMZ that Wilson could still make a cameo appearance
00:35during the upcoming season, which is expected to begin filming over the 4th of July weekend.
00:40Wilson and Batula first confirmed their relationship in March after months of speculation.
00:45In a joint statement posted to Instagram, the pair explained that they never intended to hide their
00:50romance. They wrote,
01:05The couple also said their relationship grew out of a genuine, longstanding friendship,
01:09and that they wanted to approach things carefully before going public.
01:12But the romance quickly sparked drama among their castmates.
01:16Co-star Sierra Miller was reportedly shocked to learn that Batula was dating Wilson,
01:20who Miller had previously dated for four months in 2023.
01:24At the same time, Batula had only recently announced her separation
01:27from Kyle Cook in January, after four years of marriage.
01:31The fallout played out during the Summer House Season 10 reunion,
01:35where Miller blasted her former best friend for dating her ex.
01:39Cook also questioned the timeline of Wilson and Batula's relationship,
01:43revealing that he and Batula split on the same day they publicly announced their separation.
01:48Miller additionally pointed out that she had seen Wilson and Batula together
01:52just days before the couple officially confirmed their romance.
01:55Despite the backlash, Wilson and Batula have continued moving forward together.
01:59The couple was recently spotted enjoying a romantic trip to Italy while attending a wedding last month.
02:04And while Wilson's time as a full-time cast member may be over,
02:08it sounds like fans may not have seen the last of him just yet.
