Summer House alum Lexi Wood thinks both Amanda Batula and Ciara Miller are out of West Wilson’s league.
Approached by TMZ in Los Angeles on Friday, April 17, Lexi, 28, was asked to weigh in on Amanda and West’s controversial relationship.
“Look, my unsolicited advice would be dating outside that Summer House — [it’s] much better!” she told the outlet, emphasizing it was just “my opinion.”
Lexi added that she thought West, 31, was punching above his weight by striking up a romance with Amanda, 34, — and that Ciara has better dating prospects now that she’s left him behind.
“I think the girls are better than the guys in that house, I think we all know that,” she said, before doubling down on her advice to the women to start “dating not in the house.”
Amid all the drama caused by Amanda and West’s blossoming romance, Lexi said that she hoped their relationship goes the distance to make all the pain for the people around them worth it.
“Honestly, one part of me hopes that they do last if they’re going to cause all of this chaos in the friendship and ruin friendships and longstanding relationships,” she told TMZ.
Lexi continued, “A part of me kind of does hope that they take it the long haul, but look I think Amanda should find a really great guy, not another party boy and I think Ciara knows she’s going to be better off anyway.”

In March, Amanda and West addressed speculation surrounding their relationship after Amanda’s split from Kyle Cooke.
“We’ve seen the growing online speculation, so while this is still very new, we wanted to provide some clarity,” they wrote via a joint Instagram statement posted on March 31. “It was never our intention to purposely hide anything. Given the complicated relationship dynamics involved and the scrutiny that comes with being on a reality show, we needed a little space to process things privately before speaking on it.”
Amanda Batula appeared to be adhering to “girl code” after Ciara Miller split from West Wilson — just months before Amanda confirmed she was dating West. Amanda, 34, exclusively told Us Weekly in January that she didn’t think West, 31, was “marriage material” — at least not for Ciara, 30. When asked whether West or […]
The statement continued: “We’ve shown up for each other as friends over the years, through all the highs and lows, and what’s developed recently was the last thing either of us expected. Our connection grew out of a genuine, longstanding friendship, which made it especially important for us to approach this with care.”
Ciara, who was friends with Amanda and dated West in 2023, broke her silence on the relationship via an interview with Glamour.
“It’s one thing to experience hurt behind closed doors,” Ciara, 30, told the outlet on Friday. “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***.”
Meanwhile, Amanda and West were spotted packing on the PDA on a Kiss Cam at a Yankees game in New York on the same day.
