A real-life betrayal between housemates — played out across social media and three reunion episodes — has turned Summer House into Bravo’s biggest ratings story in years.
Part 1 of the Summer House Season 10 reunion, which aired May 26, drew 3.1 million viewers on Bravo and Peacock in live-plus-seven-day figures — a 43% rise from the season average and a series high. It also ranked as Bravo’s most-watched episode across platforms in the 18-49 demo in years, and the No. 1 unscripted entertainment telecast in the 18-49 demo across cable in two years.
On Peacock, Part 1 became the most-watched episode of any NBCUniversal next-day series in the platform’s history. Part 2 scored 2.6 million viewers after just three days, up 46% from the season average. Reunion content has generated 84 million video views on social media since May 26, a 600% increase from last season.
The fuel behind those numbers: a scandal the show’s own fans quickly dubbed “Scamanda.” Amanda Batula and her husband Kyle Cooke, longtime anchors of the series, announced their separation in January 2026 after four years of marriage. Within weeks, Batula confirmed she was dating West Wilson — her best friend Ciara Miller’s ex, who had broken Miller’s heart after their 2023 split.
At the reunion, Wilson admitted he made the first move on Batula at the end of February, telling host Andy Cohen: “When we were out, I kind of looked at Amanda.” Cast members, including Wilson’s close friend Jesse Solomon, were visibly shaken — Solomon broke down in tears saying he felt like he was losing a brother.
Part 3 of the reunion, which aired Tuesday, examined whether Wilson had been in an exclusive relationship with another woman, Meija Moreno, while pursuing Batula. When Cooke asked directly whether Wilson had been exclusive with Moreno, Wilson responded: “No, she thought we were.” Questions also swirled about whether the romance began as early as the Super Bowl — a timeline Batula and Wilson denied.
Season 10 has averaged 2.2 million viewers across platforms, a 15% rise from Season 9, marking the fifth consecutive year of season-over-season growth for the series.
