Kyle Cooke was clocked by his Summer House costars for hooking up with Southern Charm star Salley Carson.
“What’s up with you and Salley from Southern Charm?” Andy Cohen asked Kyle, 43, during part 2 of the Summer House season 10 reunion on Tuesday, June 2. “Is that a thing? Did you guys hookup?”
Kyle initially denied the claims before castmate Lindsay Hubbard stepped in.
“You made out on the night of the Summer House premiere,” she said. “Don’t lie.”
Kyle confirmed that it was “the night before” the party.
“When I found that out, I immediately called [Kyle’s ex-wife] Amanda [Batula], and I told her that Kyle was making out with Salley, and I thought that that was crazy,” castmate Ciara Miller added. “I thought it was absurd. It’s insane.”
Ciara continued, “I’m just making an example of how good of a friend I was to you and how you’re a friend to me. So, I just want to point that out.”
The Summer House season 10 premiere party took place this past February in New York City. Kyle and Amanda were separated at the time. However, it was not yet public that Amanda had moved on with Ciara’s ex West Wilson.
Kyle previously denied having a romantic connection to Salley during a March appearance on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen.
“We were out with multiple friends, at a dive bar,” he said at the time. “This was not a date situation, just having fun. But, she’s a great girl.”
During Tuesday’s reunion, the photos of Kyle making out with Real Housewives of Orange County alum Meghan King from this past April were also discussed.
“I didn’t know who she was, introduced myself,” he recalled. “We ended up at a Page Six party and then an afterparty. I could, kind of, sense people were looking at us.”

Kyle said that he and Meghan “went across the street” but “didn’t” get away from wandering eyes. They discussed their respective divorces before Kyle “gave her a kiss goodnight” — but things didn’t go any further. (Meghan and her ex-husband, Jim Edmonds, finalized their divorce in 2021.)
A source told Us Weekly exclusively in April that Meghan “pursued [Kyle] the second she saw him” that night. Kyle was “in great spirits” at the event, the source shared.
“He was definitely buzzed and was having fun with her,” the insider added. “It’s nothing serious, but they did hang out all night even after the event was over, and made out several times in public.”
The source added, “Meghan did seem interested and gravitated toward him more as the night went on.”
