In a major development for fans of the Bravo franchise, Summer House stars Amanda Batula and Kyle Cooke officially announced their separation on January 19, 2026. The news comes after a decade-long relationship and four years of marriage, marking a significant shift for the long-standing reality TV couple.
The Official Announcement
The couple shared a joint statement via their Instagram Stories, describing the decision as mutual and amicable.
"After much reflection, we have mutually and amicably decided to part ways as a couple," the statement read. "We share this with a heavy heart and kindly ask for your grace and support while we focus on our personal growth and healing."
They also acknowledged the irony of asking for privacy after years of documenting their relationship on national television, but asked fans for "kindness and respect" as they navigate this new chapter.
Signs of Trouble in Season 10
The announcement comes just weeks before the premiere of Summer House Season 10, which is set to air in early February 2026. Trailers for the upcoming season have already hinted at the friction that led to the split:
Career Conflicts: Amanda expressed frustration over Kyle's late-night DJ career and partying lifestyle.
Support Issues: Kyle claimed in teaser clips that he felt unsupported by Amanda during major career milestones.
Living Separately: Rumors had been swirling since late 2025 that the two were living apart, though Amanda had previously made light of the claims on social media.
What’s Next for Amanda?
Despite the personal turmoil, Amanda remains "booked and busy." Beyond her role as the Creative and Branding Director for Loverboy, she has been focusing on her own ventures:
Amanda Batula Swim: Her swimwear line continues to be a primary focus.
New Spinoff: Amanda is set to star in a new Summer House spinoff based in New York City, alongside Lindsay Hubbard and other cast members, focusing on their lives in Manhattan.
