‘Summer House’ Stars Kyle Cooke and Amanda Batula Break Up After 4 Years of Marriage
Amanda Batula and Kyle Cooke will be spending their summers alone.
The Summer House stars—whose decade-long relationship unfolded on the Bravo series—announced their breakup just over four years after they tied the knot in a Sept. 2021 ceremony.
“After much reflection, we have mutually and amicably decided to part ways as a couple,” they shared in a joint statement posted to their Instagram Stories Jan. 19. “We share this with a heavy heart and kindly ask for your grace and support while we focus on our personal growth and healing.”
Amanda and Kyle continued, “It feels ironic to ask for privacy during this time since we’ve always tried to be open and honest about our relationship, but your kindness and respect will go a long way as we try to navigate our next chapter.”
The pair’s breakup news comes shortly after their marriage seemed to be on the rocks in the trailer for Summer House season 10, which filmed in 2025.
In the minutes-long preview—which also promised the return of stars Lindsay Hubbard, Ciara Miller and Carl Radke—Kyle ominously foretold, “These friendships go back 10 plus years. You’d like to think some of these relationships are unshakable. But, in the blink of an eye, everything can change.”
But unlike his cryptic confessional, Amanda didn’t mince words when complaining about Kyle’s newfound DJ career.

“I wanted him to stop going out and partying,” Amanda explained, “and he found a career where he goes out late and parties.”
Meanwhile, where Amanda found fault in her husband’s latest career endeavor, the Loverboy founder explained he didn’t feel supported by his wife.
“I played the biggest gig of my life, but Amanda couldn’t care less,” he said. “I don’t know what matters to her anymore.”
Tensions only mounted when Kyle allegedly stayed at a fan’s apartment until 6:30 in the morning, with Ciara soon after telling Amanda, “You need to let this motherf–ker know, ‘If you treat me this way, I am leaving.'”

But while the trailer promised trouble in paradise, Amanda and Kyle had denied rumors they were living separately shortly before the teaser dropped in December.
“We are very much still together,” he told Access Hollywood in an interview published Nov. 14. “It’s unfortunate that whatever rumor comes out just before [BravoCon]. It’s a little bit of a cloud.”
Kyle did acknowledge, however, the many ups and downs that had played out before the camera.
“We are not perfect,” he continued. “We’ve never tried to portray a perfect couple. We wear it all on our sleeve. 10 years in and four years into marriage, all on camera—it hasn’t been easy.”
