In a surprising twist following the Summer House Season 10 reunion, Amanda Batula revealed on Saturday, April 25, 2026, that she used ChatGPT to draft the joint statement she and West Wilson used to confirm their relationship.
The announcement, which the pair originally shared via Instagram Stories in March, aimed to address growing speculation about their romance.
During the reunion filming, costars reportedly grilled the couple about the "calculated" nature of the post, leading Amanda Batula to admit she relied on AI to strike the right tone given the complicated circumstances.
The statement in question highlighted their "genuine, longstanding friendship" and asked for space to "process things privately."
Sources present at the reunion say fellow cast members, including Ciara Miller, who previously dated West Wilson, and Kyle Cooke, the former husband of Amanda Batula, expressed frustration that the message felt overly formal and insincere.
By using AI to navigate the public fallout of their relationship, Amanda Batula reportedly sought to avoid further "hurt or carelessness" while explaining their unexpected connection.
The revelation about the AI-written post adds another layer to the "messy" timeline surrounding the new couple.
While Amanda Batula and West Wilson claim they only became romantic after both were single, other Bravo stars have challenged this narrative.
Mia Alario of Southern Hospitality recently alleged that West Wilson was "pre-gaming" dates with Amanda Batula as early as last September, months before Amanda Batula officially announced her separation from Kyle Cooke in January 2026.
West Wilson addressed these rumors on his Show Me Something podcast, insisting that while they were hanging out, they did not realize the seriousness of their feelings until February.
He expressed regret over the backlash Amanda Batula has faced, noting that he plans to offer "face-to-face" apologies to those impacted by their choices.
However, critics like Luke Gulbranson have publicly slammed the duo for a "shocking lack of loyalty," arguing they should have consulted Ciara Miller before going public.
