Variety • • general
Key Points:
- West Wilson will not return for "Summer House" Season 11 as his contract was not renewed, confirmed ahead of filming starting in July.
- Season 10's most-watched run was driven by a scandal involving Wilson and Amanda Batula, who began dating despite Batula's close friendship with Ciara Miller and her estranged husband Kyle Cooke.
- The controversial relationship and their behavior during reunion episodes led to backlash from fans and cast members, including Lindsay Hubbard, a founding cast member who publicly criticized Wilson.
- Wilson has shown hostility toward the show, notably hoping a competing NBA game would reduce viewership of a "Summer House" bonus episode, prompting further public disputes with cast members.
- Despite Wilson's opposition, "Summer House: The Aftermath," featuring conversations among key cast members about the scandal, will air as planned on June 16.
