Bravo stars spilled plenty of piping-hot tea at Page Six’s “Virtual Reali-Tea” “Summer House” reunion watch party Tuesday night at Branch New York, the private members-only social club inside New York City’s Park Terrace Hotel.

The event — sponsored by The Cocktail Collection — brought together “VRT” co-hosts Danny Murphy and Evan Real with a panel of Bravo personalities including “Summer House” alum Stephen McGee, “Real Housewives of New Jersey” alum Margaret Josephs and “Summer House: Martha’s Vineyard” alum Jordan Emanuel.

Much of the evening’s explosive discussion centered on the ongoing fallout involving West Wilson, Amanda Batula and Ciara Miller after Batula secretly pursued a romance with Wilson behind Miller’s back despite once being considered one of her closest friends.

Emanuel, for her part, sharply criticized Batula’s demeanor during part one of the reunion, arguing that she failed to show enough remorse for hurting Miller.

“The attitude, the reaction,” said Emanuel, who starred alongside Batula in “Winter House” Season 2 and once considered the latter a good friend. “Like, you literally did not even include them in that whack-ass statement and now you want to be nasty? Unreal.”

The reality star also reflected on how deeply Miller once cared for Batula before their friendship imploded.

“The year before last, the only reason I even have Ciara’s number is because she was organizing videos of all of Amanda’s friends to give her a happy birthday message,” Emanuel recalled. “So to see how this has come into full circle fruition is so disturbing.”

Emanuel added that she has not spoken to Batula since July.

“I thought about [reaching out], but I didn’t really know what to say,” she admitted. “I’m a very honest person. I don’t know if Amanda could really handle that version of me.”

Meanwhile, Josephs did not hold back while discussing claims that her friend and former “RHONJ” co-star Jennifer Fessler allegedly hooked up with Wilson — rumors first brought up by Miller via social media this month.

“Do I think West might have said something to Ciara? Absolutely,” Josephs said. “Do I think Ciara lies? Absolutely not.”

Josephs speculated that Wilson may have fueled the rumor himself “for clout,” branding him a “f–kboy” who “says things for clout.” She also firmly denied anything romantic ever happened between Fessler and Wilson.

“I would have known at the time,” Josephs insisted. “I think Jenn would have confided in me. She’s known to be messy, she’s always very touchy-feely, but nothing happened.”

The Bravolebrity additionally joked about Wilson’s leaked nude photos, which became a major talking point online and during the reunion itself.

“They really circulated. I even got it,” she quipped. “I’m not happy I got the dick pic. I’m not going to lie. It was against my will.”

McGee, for his part, was unimpressed by Wilson’s package. “There wasn’t much to talk about,” he joked. 

The event planner then bantered with Josephs about Wilson and Batula’s compatibility after dissecting the duo’s behavior during the reunion.

At one point, McGee expressed optimism for Wilson and Batula’s romantic future as both parties seemingly lack the ability to express remorse — therefore establishing a unique level of compatibility. Brian Zak/Page Six
Batula and Wilson went public with their relationship on March 31 following weeks of speculation.

“It’s so embarrassing. They’re so pathetic,” said Josephs. “Literally, I’m so embarrassed because … we were all friends with Amanda. I really loved Amanda but she’s coming across as dumb and dumber, these two schmucks. I’m so mortified … She’s like braindead!”

This take prompted McGee to throw some shade himself. 

“From watching this, though, I think they might be a good match,” he quipped before elaborating, “Also, she’s just very callous in this. I feel like callous is the word. Like, she’s not just numb but she’s hard.” 

Emanuel summed up Batula’s reunion attitude with one word — “disturbing” — and called out Wilson for staying silent when his paramour’s feet were held to the fire. Brian Zak/Page Six
After the episode, attendees — including The Reality Rundown founder Welington F. Gomez (pictured here) — proudly shared their “Summer House” hot takes.

Emanuel couldn’t help but note that Wilson was rather quiet, choosing not to defend Batula when her feet were repeatedly held to the fire throughout the taping.

“West is over there, again, Jiminy Cricket, sitting there [in] silence,” she said. “Is anyone there? Hello? No preparation!” 

“Summer House” airs Tuesdays at 8 p.m. ET on Bravo with new episodes available to stream the next day on Peacock.
