Ciara Miller is speaking out for the first time following the revelation that her ex-boyfriend West Wilson is now dating her close friend Amanda Batula.

According to People, the Summer House star opened up about the situation after Batula and Wilson confirmed their relationship on March 31, describing the emotional toll of watching the romance unfold both privately and publicly.

Miller revealed she had been working toward rebuilding a friendship with Wilson following their 2023 breakup, which made the development even more difficult to process. She also shared that she felt especially close to Batula during that time, adding another layer to the situation.

The reality star admitted she felt blindsided by how everything unfolded, noting she was given little notice before the relationship became public. She also pointed out that certain details in the couple’s announcement were “very telling,” suggesting underlying tensions.

Miller further explained that she and Wilson had previously set boundaries after their breakup, including avoiding romantic involvement within their shared Bravo circle, something she feels was ultimately broken.

Batula has since addressed the backlash, apologizing publicly and acknowledging that the situation has hurt people close to her. The couple has maintained that their relationship developed from a long-standing friendship and was not intended to cause harm.

The fallout has become a major storyline among fans of Summer House, with tensions expected to come to a head at the upcoming season 10 reunion.

Miller’s comments mark her first in-depth response to the controversy, highlighting the complexities of navigating friendships, relationships and public scrutiny within a close-knit reality TV circle.
