According to People, their statement read: “We’ve seen the growing online speculation, so while this is still very new, we wanted to provide some clarity. 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 need a little space to process things privately before speaking on it.”
“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, long-standing friendship, which made it especially important for us to approach this with care.”
It continued, “As our feelings evolved, we wanted to take time to understand exactly what we were feeling. We also recognize that this has had an impact beyond just us and never wanted our actions to cause any hurt or be perceived as careless. We truly appreciate the understanding and respect as we navigate this.”

In an interview with ET in February, just a little over a month before Batula and Wilson confirmed their status, Miller addressed how she navigated her summer with her ex, giving a positive outlook on where they were headed.
“It was tough when we weren’t on speaking terms. I’m so much happier now that we are speaking to each other, like we are building back a friendship. And I think, day by day, who’s to say what will happen? I don’t know. I’m just thankful to have him as a friend,” she said.
She continued, “I feel like we really were best friends at one point, and so, I’m just grateful to be back in a position where we can kind of see each other’s point of view a lot better and have each other’s friendship.”
As of this writing, Miller has not yet addressed Batula and Wilson’s joint Instagram statement confirming their romance. However, Cosmopolitan confirmed that she unfollowed both co-stars on Instagram.
