    Watch: Summer House’s Lindsay Hubbard Says Amanda Batula, West Wilson’s Romance Isn’t Going Well

    Lindsay Hubbard thinks there may be trouble in paradise for Amanda Batula and West Wilson.

    Nearly seven months after her Summer House costars confirmed their romance, Hubbard shared her thoughts on how the couple’s relationship is faring.

    “I just see rumors like all the time,” Hubbard said during a panel at Bravo Fan Fest Oct. 24 in Charleston, South Carolina, when asked if she’s “surprised” that Wilson and Batula’s romance seemed to be going strong. “I’m seeing all the same rumors that we’re all seeing of them being out and about bar hopping this and that in Newport, Rhode Island, whatever they’re doing. If they’re fighting, if they’re not fighting, if he’s calling girls, getting girls’ numbers.”

    As Hubbard emphasized, “I don’t know the answer to it, but it doesn’t seem like it’s going well.”

    But the 40-year-old admitted that she “wouldn’t know” the truth for certain as she hasn’t spoken to Batula since they filmed the In the City reunion in June, nor has she spoken with Wilson since the trio shot the Summer House reunion in April.

    And while Batula and Wilson haven’t addressed any recent rumors, the couple did appear to poke fun at speculation Batula was pregnant with their first baby.

    In a July 14 TikTok shared by Wilson, Batula, 35, seemingly joked that she was experiencing pregnancy cravings as she picked up three jars of pickles from a shelf at the grocery store, and added them to her basket, before heading to the freezer aisle to grab a couple tubs of ice cream.

    Since the pair’s romance was revealed in March, four months after Batula called it quits with her estranged husband Kyle Cooke, their relationship has been under the microscope of fans and their fellow Summer House costars alike, especially considering Wilson used to date Batula’s former BFF Ciara Miller.

    And while their Bravo costars may not be fans of their relationship, Batula and Wilson—who both confirmed they’re not returning for season 11 of Summer House—have continued to share insight into their relationship on social media, including their adventures throughout the summer.

    And as for what makes their relationship special, Batula has previously highlighted that Wilson has changed her for the better.

    “Hanging out with [Wilson] and his friends brought out a side of me that I never thought I would see again,” she shared during the Summer House: The Aftermath special in June. “This person that wanted to have fun, wanted to go out—like, loved life again. Didn’t feel lost, and alone and scared anymore.”
