Kyle Cooke Accuses West Wilson of "Wild Betrayal" Over Amanda Batula Relationship
It looks like Kyle Cooke has a possible new summer love.
The newly single Summer House star was seen kissing Real Housewives of Orange County alum Meghan King during a night out in NYC on April 16, according to Page Six.
In a video obtained by the outlet, the Bravolebrities are seen talking on the street before Meghan planted a quick smooch on Kyle's lips. The pair's PDA continued with the Loverboy founder putting his hands on her shoulders during the chat.
E! News reached out to reps for the reality stars but have not yet received a response.
Earlier that evening, Kyle, 43, and Meghan, 41—who appeared on seasons 10 through 12 of RHOC before exiting the show in 2018—were photographed together enjoying themselves during Page Six and Nine West's '90s-themed party at Temple Bar.
For the bash, Kyle rocked a Notorious B.I.G. T-shirt and tan pants while Meghan donned a black slip dress under a black leather jacket (the same outfits they wore later that night while kissing).
The lip-locking seemingly proves Kyle has moved on from ex Amanda Batula following her dating scandal with his former friend West Wilson (Kyle and Amanda announced their divorce in January). After the costars confirmed their romance last month, fans were quick to defend West's ex Ciara Miller amid the scandal.
As for Kyle's take on the drama?
“Amanda knows that what she did was wrong,” Kyle told NYC-based journalist Adam Glyn in a TikTok video posted April 1, “and she's trying to come to terms with it."
However, he noted his wife of four years is "not well" amid the fallout.

"I’m actually really worried about Amanda, if I’m being honest,” he added. “I understand people have all sorts of opinions and I'm not justifying any kind of behavior, but from what I'm seeing she's kind of getting cyber bullied.”
But Kyle doesn't feel the same sympathy for his ex-BFF.
“All I know is West seems to be the kind of guy playing multiple women at the same time," he continued. "And somehow, in all of this, like 50,000 people have decided that West deserves their follow. Meanwhile, they're just lighting up Amanda. I just feel bad.”

April 17, 2026: Ciara Miller Breaks Her Silence
Nearly three weeks after West and Amanda went public, Ciara addressed the scandal head-on for the first time.
“It’s one thing to experience hurt behind closed doors,” Ciara told Glamour in an interview published April 17. "To experience it so publicly is like another layer, and then to have to see what you thought was your life still play out in season 10. It’s a major mindf--k."
The 30-year-old explained that she "definitely" felt closer to Amanda before the scandal, but noted that she and West "were working on our relationship." And that closeness to Amanda is why she felt more betrayed by her than by West.
"At the end of the day, a guy’s a guy," Ciara said. "Whether or not West and I are working on a relationship, you just can’t put anything past a man. But I just never would think that it would come from someone like Amanda, who has been what has felt like in my circle and in my corner for so long. I think that’s the craziest part."
