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.”

While they cited no single explosive reason, reports and past on-screen moments point to long-standing issues that built over time.

Key factors that contributed to the breakup include:

• Past Infidelity and Lingering Trust Issues — Kyle admitted to cheating on Amanda multiple times in 2017 and 2018 during early seasons of Summer House. Amanda has spoken openly about the “PTSD” from those betrayals, ongoing rumors of Kyle in compromising situations, and her difficulty fully trusting him—even years later. In unaired footage from Season 9 specials, she confronted him about late nights out and how persistent cheating whispers affected her.
• Lifestyle and Compatibility Differences — The pair frequently clashed over social habits. Amanda expressed frustration with Kyle staying out until 4 a.m., while he felt they lacked a shared social life because she preferred quieter evenings. In one heated exchange, Kyle said Amanda was “proving” they shouldn’t be together by highlighting these mismatches in chemistry, intimacy, and compatibility.
• Recent Rumors and Separation Signs — Speculation intensified in late 2025, with sources claiming the couple had been living apart since around November. Additional reports noted they didn’t ring in the new year together, and Kyle attended events solo. Fans spotted subtle clues, like Kyle’s playful (but telling) comment on Amanda’s 2016 throwback photos that excluded him, posted just days before the announcement.

Despite working through challenges publicly—including therapy discussions and efforts to rebuild—the issues proved too persistent. The split appears rooted in unresolved trust problems, differing priorities, and growing apart after years under the reality TV spotlight.

As Summer House Season 10 approaches, fans are bracing for more drama, but Amanda and Kyle are now focusing on individual healing. The Bravo community has flooded them with support, wishing both well in their next chapters. 💔
