Amanda Batula and West Wilson are putting their blossoming romance on full display.
The Summer House costars packed on the PDA at a baseball game in New York on Friday, April 17. Their display of affection was captured on the venue’s Kiss Cam and broadcast via the Yes Network.
In the footage, West, 31, could be seen leaning in to plant a kiss on Amanda, 34, as they sat among the crowd watching the Kansas City Royals take on the New York Yankees at Yankee Stadium.
Last month, Amanda and West posted a joint statement via Instagram to address their relationship as whispers got louder that the pair had embarked on a romance following 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,” read the joint 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.”
In the statement Amanda and West went on to share how their relationship had evolved from their initial friendship.
“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,” they continued. “Our connection grew out of a genuine, longstanding friendship, which made it especially important for us to approach this with care.”
The pair faced backlash for their burgeoning relationship due to West previously dating Amanda’s best friend and Summer House costar, Ciara Miller, in 2023.

For her part, Ciara, 30, broke her silence on the controversy during an interview with Glamour published on Friday.
“It’s one thing to experience hurt behind closed doors,” Ciara told the outlet.. “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***.”
Ciara also claimed that she had “less than 24 hours” notice about the statement before it was posted.
“I read it with the rest of the world,” she said. “There’s something about the lack of being able to say each other’s names in the statement that I found very telling, but I don’t know.”
