Amanda Batula, 34, and Kyle Cooke, 43, of Bravo’s “Summer House” have officially ended their four years of marriage after having tied the knot in September 2021.
Batula announced their split on her Instagram Story on Monday, Jan. 19, detailing how it was a “mutual” decision between them.
Amanda Batula & Kyle Cooke Part Ways
“After much reflection, we have mutually and amicably decided to part ways as a couple. We share this with a heavy heart and kindly ask for your grace and support while we focus on our personal growth and healing,” she wrote.
“It feels ironic to ask for privacy during this time since we’ve always tried to be open and honest about our relationship, but your kindness and respect will go a long way as we try to navigate our next chapter. – Amanda & Kyle,” the message concluded.
Batula and Cooke began dating in 2015, leading to many “Summer House” seasons full of their hilarious and adorable antics. Cooke proposed to Batula, who is nine years her senior, in 2018, as reported by Cosmopolitan.
Amanda Batula & Kyle Cooke’s Relationship
Throughout their long relationship, Batula and Cooke have seen their ups and downs. Despite launching a successful beverage business in 2019 with their brand Loverboy, the two have dodged plenty of questions about their commitment to each other in the last few years.
With growing concerns of their marriage being on the rocks, Cooke reassured fans at 2025 BravoCon in Nov. that they were doing just fine. “We are very much still together,” he told Access Hollywood.
While on “Summer House,” Cooke has repeatedly been seen emotionally unraveling over his relationship with Batula. Offscreen, in Dec. 2025, the former couple shut down speculation that they were living separately. Batula took to her Instagram to throw shade at the accusations by sharing a comedic video of her and Cooke, Cosmopolitan reported.
Differing Views on Having Kids
Their views on welcoming children together also played a role in their relationship. Although Cooke was ready to expand their family, Batula expressed hesitation in doing so.
“I’m in like a weird place,” Batula admitted during season 9. “Because there’s some days where I feel like, ‘Why am I not pregnant right now? Like, what are we doing? Why are we wasting our time?’ And then there’s other days where I’m like, ‘Should I even have kids?’”
Cooke then explained during a confessional about his desire to have kids with his then-wife. “Time’s ticking, and 90% of the blood, sweat and tears I put into Loverboy was for our future, for kids,” he shared.
During a previous “Trading Secrets” podcast, Batula shared how she and Cooke did not sign a prenup. In addition to their business ventures, the former couple has two dogs together.
Not shocked. Amanda doesn’t need a 40 year old toddler to take care of. She’s beautiful, smart, classy and a good friend to many. Kyle, you won’t change. You are a mamas boy who grew up probably getting whatever you wanted. Not anymore honey.
This epidemic of chronic mental constipation about what people’s lives are “feeling like” every nano second of every day is what is keeping these two generations in a state of constant angst. Only they can stop this ticker tape in their head and stop blaming everything and everyone else. This fantasy that every star will be aligned and all will be perfect is just that – nonsense! Nobody wants to just dive in, decide to be adults, do adult things (like having children) and then work on the up’s and down’s as they unfold. A 100% bet that having children would have kept these two together. Children forces you to STOP being a narcissist and focus on some-one-other-than-yourself- for-once-in-your-life. It changes your attitudes. Makes you want to be good parents, better people, better citizens. Responsibility really starts to set in. It’s how it’s supposed to be! It’s a shame that they let this opportunity pass them by. All that history. All those shared memories. Good families coming together – all of it, gone. For what? To now go out and start all over again with a stranger? Very sad.
