On June 3, while appearing on his SiriusXM show "Radio Andy," Cohen took a call from a Summer House fan. During the conversation, the woman remarked on how interesting the second half of the reunion had been and asked the host how long Batula had been absent from the stage after she announced she needed a break.
The caller remarked that it "seemed like a really long time." Cohen said, "That's a good question." After thinking for a moment, he continued, "At least 15 minutes, but I'd say 20 or more. Yes.".
That's why Amanda walked off the stage at the meet and greet.

Batula was the center of attention for much of the first two parts of the Season 10 Summer House reunion. In the final episode, before leaving the stage, she admitted to feeling ashamed of the circumstances surrounding her relationship with Wilson.
Batula stated, "I felt awkward saying I had feelings for West, that I kissed him, and he was dating someone else. I felt awkward telling Ciara about it." After that, the "Summer House" contestant« Mia Calabrese added: «Well, yes, it is awkward.».
Afterward, Batula tearfully said, "I think I need some rest." She could then be seen backstage, saying she needed to "stay off camera for five minutes." Afterward, the cast called on Wilson to answer her. At first, he remained onstage, insisting he might have to answer a few more questions.
However, he ultimately lashed out at Batula. The show's contestants criticized her for not taking responsibility at the post-season meeting, as she had in previous years.

Following Cohen's comments about how long Batula was absent from the meeting, Summer House fans began to voice their opinions. The general consensus is that it was odd that Wilson had to explain how to follow Batula. Furthermore, many felt the time she spent backstage was somewhat excessive.
One person wrote on X: "Why the hell is she getting such special treatment? Who else in the history of reunions has ever left the stage for that long? She did it." Another said: "20 minutes, what do you do? No one has ever done that.".
On TikTok, another Summer House fan noted, "He had no desire whatsoever to visit Amanda. This is crazy." Another social media user stated, "Kyle is teaching West how to take care of Amanda." As fans know, Batula is currently in the process of divorcing Kyle Cook .
Someone else noted, "The fact that West isn't trying to attack Amanda because he doesn't want to be criticized for leaving is so telling. This man wouldn't put his image second to her feelings. It's just unbelievable.".
Finally, another person noted the manner in which Calabrese delivered his lines, stating, "The tempo at which Mia said, 'Yeah, that's awkward,' really resonated with me.".

As Bravo fans know, Cohen hosts all the reunions for the channel's various shows. In a recent interview with Vulture, he discussed not only the reunion for the 10th season of "Summer House" but also how he's preparing for his role as host.
He said of "Summer House": "Everything will be discussed. In fact, you make me think this might be our first three-part meeting dedicated to "Summer House." We've never had anything like this before.".
Cohen continued, "My preparation is happening organically. As for 'Summer House,' I know what the fans are saying. The reunion will be about everyone having a say.".
He then elaborated, explaining, "We'll have calls with the producers, and they'll say, 'The new thing you don't know is that so-and-so is getting divorced and is mad at so-and-so.' These meetings basically write themselves.".
The reality show "Summer House" will return for season 11.

The tenth season is arguably the most talked-about in the history of Summer House. This is, of course, partly due to the love triangle between Wilson, Batula, and Miller. According to TV Insider, NBCUniversal announced at its May 2026 programming presentation that the series will return for an eleventh season.
It is currently unknown who might return, but filming typically begins in July.
