The Summer House drama refuses to die, and now it’s got an unlikely voice poking holes in the official story. Kenny Martin, star of the Bravo spinoff In The City, isn’t convinced by the timeline Amanda Batula and West Wilson have been selling about how their relationship actually started.
According to Amanda and West, their first kiss happened in February, and they didn’t get physical until they officially defined things at the end of March. Sounds neat and tidy, right? Kenny isn’t buying it. When caught by our photog in New York City, he explained exactly what makes the whole thing feel off to him—and frankly, he’s not alone in questioning the math here.
What’s telling is that the Summer House reunion didn’t actually clear anything up. Instead of settling the debate, it just gave everyone more material to argue about. Kenny’s skepticism reflects what a lot of viewers are probably thinking: the timeline has more gaps than a plot hole in a reality TV confessional.
But here’s what Kenny says actually mattered most from the reunion: KJ Dillard opening up about being diagnosed with borderline personality disorder. That moment hit different for Kenny, who explained that KJ’s situation resonated with him personally. In a sea of he-said-she-said drama, KJ’s vulnerability and willingness to share something that real was a genuine human moment—the kind Bravo audiences don’t always get to witness.
The irony? While Amanda and West are sweating the details of their romance origin story, the real conversation should probably be about why we’re obsessing over someone else’s relationship timeline instead of celebrating someone finding the courage to talk openly about mental health. That’s the kind of honesty reality TV actually needs.
