Add Page Six on Google West Wilson reportedly tried to get Lindsay Hubbard, Kyle Cooke and Carl Radke fired from “Summer House” — which allegedly led to him not being asked back for Season 11. However, a rep for Wilson told Page Six that the accusation is “categorically false,” while a rep for Cooke told us there is “no truth” to the claims. The source claimed to US weekly on Tuesday that the podcaster, 31, “told producers that Lindsay shouldn’t film pregnant and being a new mom because it’s a show about singles and having fun in the summer.” In 2024, Hubbard, 39, welcomed daughter Gemma with now-ex-boyfriend Turner Kufe. The insider added, “Amanda knew about that and Lindsay was pissed.” Meanwhile, Wilson allegedly tried to make Cooke, 43, and Radke, 41, “look bad” by secretly telling producers that the reality show “would be better with him and new friends.” Cooke, Hubbard, and Radke are part of the original “Summer House” cast, with Batula, 34, joining as Cooke’s “girlfriend” during Season 1. The swimwear designer was then upgraded to a full-time cast member. The insider added that “his goal was to be with Amanda and then just film with his friends.” The sports commentator not showing his personal life and “dating other women who no one knew about,” also led to his departure. Wilson and Batula started dating shortly after the influencer separated from Cooke in January after four years of marriage. Batula’s ex-bestie Ciara Miller, 30, also dated Wilson for several months in 2023. The former flames even shared a kiss during Season 10. Wilson was also actively dating Meija Moreno when his relationship with Batula was exposed. The source claimed that Hubbard and Cooke have “joked” that Wilson and Batula “are not going to last.” But the insider told the outler that the couple is “still fully committed to each other.” Page Six reached out to reps for Hubbard and Radke, as well. However, a second source alleged that “it was a mutual decision between the network and West.” They noted that the Complex journalist felt that his “time on the show was coming to end” going into the Season 10 reunion. “It became even clearer that there wasn’t a long-term fit anymore,” the insider continued, insisting that Wilson is “at peace” with the outcome. The social media personality is now focused “on his podcast and other business ventures.” The source explained that due to Batula and Wilson’s bombshell romance, “there’s a tear in the friend group.” Wilson and Batula came under fire during the dramatic three-part Season 10 reunion for lying about their relationship to everyone in the group. “The cast doesn’t want to film with him,” the insider continued to Us, noting that Batula is “still friendly” with Season 8’s Jesse Solomon, 33, and her estranged husband. As of now, the rest of the cast is not “speaking with Batula,” with the insider expressing that her future on the show is “up in the air.” On Monday, Hubbard took to Threads to detail her grievances with Wilson. “West has tried to threaten my career / show now 3 times and it’s quite frankly, disgusting. No other word to describe it,” she penned. Hubbard referenced the time Wilson publicly said on his “Show Me Something” podcast that there was “no way” she could return post-baby. Now, a week after the reunion wrapped, fans will get a look into the fallout on Tuesday, with a bonus episode. “Summer House: The Aftermath” — which airs at 8 p.m. ET on Bravo — will feature a sit-down between Wilson and Cooke and Batula and Hubbard, among other cast members.
