As he sat down with Kyle to film on May 20, per <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bravotv.com\/the-daily-dish\/summer-house-bonus-episode-recap-west-wilson-addresses-future-role-on-show\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"elm:link;elmt:article_link;slk:Bravo;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" data-yga=\"{&quot;yLinkElement&quot;:&quot;context_link&quot;,&quot;yModuleName&quot;:&quot;content-canvas&quot;,&quot;yLinkText&quot;:&quot;Bravo&quot;}\" class=\"link \">Bravo<\/a>, he theorized about his own camera time following what happened:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"mb-4 border-l-2 pl-5 italic text-tertiary\">\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">This won&#8217;t make it, but, like, my time on camera is over.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">He went on to acknowledge how poorly the reunion (which aired in three parts during May and early June) went and said he did a \u201cbad job\u201d during it. Overall, this served as an explanation for why West wanted to talk with Kyle and why he initially proposed it as an off-camera conversation. Speaking a bit more about how things were received after the reunion and how he\u2019s been processing it all, West said:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"mb-4 border-l-2 pl-5 italic text-tertiary\">\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">In my experience, anything I&#8217;ve done following it, publicly, has landed poorly. And so, I didn&#8217;t want you to think I, like, waited &#8217;til the reunion was over and then, like, gathered myself and then was like, &#8216;Oh, let&#8217;s film a scene together&#8217; kind of thing. The processing and, like, slowing down and just sort of, like, soaking it all in didn&#8217;t really happen until the last two weeks.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">As the conversation continued, West told Kyle that he started to process this all \u201cpost-reunion\u201d and \u201cpost-adrenaline.\u201d He also didn\u2019t deny how bad things were and how dramatic it all became, describing the situation as a \u201cf\u2013king disaster tornado.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"mb-4 border-l-2 pl-5 italic text-tertiary\">\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">I mean, when this all happened, everything was just such a f&#8211;king disaster tornado, and there&#8217;s so many layers to this. But, like, the friendship part of this has been really hard to process. To watch it fully implode with other people who you care about, who I care about f&#8211;kin&#8217; sucks.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The drama centered around West, Amanda and Ciara Miller blew up earlier this spring when West and Amanda revealed their relationship.

Since Ciara and West used to date, she was great friends with Amanda, and Amanda had broken up with Kyle Cooke, this situation turned into a wild story that took the internet by storm (I mean, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/entertainment\/tv\/articles\/already-entranced-west-summer-house-193113334.html\" data-ylk=\"elm:link;elmt:article_link;slk:Matt Rogers and Bowen Yang even unpacked;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" data-yga=\"{&quot;yLinkElement&quot;:&quot;context_link&quot;,&quot;yModuleName&quot;:&quot;content-canvas&quot;,&quot;yLinkText&quot;:&quot;Matt Rogers and Bowen Yang even unpacked&quot;}\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Matt Rogers and Bowen Yang even unpacked<\/a> it).<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">During this episode, West told Kyle that processing all of this and how the drama changed their relationships has been difficult:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"mb-4 border-l-2 pl-5 italic text-tertiary\">\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">It&#8217;s really f&#8211;king hard to know that something so special, like, I f&#8211;kin&#8217; super fractured.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">He then named a bunch of people he lied to, and he said he understood why people discredit him now.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">This episode came out around the same time it was reported that West was leaving Summer House, and fans reacted in a big way to the rumor. This interaction was filmed before that news broke, but it seems like West thought his time on the reality show was over.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Now, it will be interesting to see where he goes from here.

However, this conversation did make it clear why he said he thought his time on Summer House was over.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission.
