The Summer House reunion audios weren’t the only thing leaked online recently! West Wilson‘s nudes did, too!
Yep, you may or may not have heard (or seen) that right before the filming of the Season 10 reunion last month, in which he and Amanda Batula got grilled on their controversial romance, his personal photos hit the internet! West didn’t address the situation then, but he is now! He broke his silence over the matter on his Show Me Something podcast on Tuesday, saying:
“I know my f**king nudes leaked, OK. But guess what? It’s, like, the sixth worry of mine right now. I have a lot of s**t going on, and I’m gonna own it. They’re not even sexual. They look medical. I’m soft in all of them. I don’t know how old it is, but it’s from my old apartment. I had a sauna by my bathroom, and I would always get out of the sauna and double check. Or check progress.”

Damn! West said he has no clue who leaked the pics, but begged everyone to stop spreading them:
“I know I’m laughing, because if I don’t laugh, I’ll f**king cry about all of this. Don’t leak people’s nudes or hack people’s s**t. It’s, like, not fun.”
It doesn’t matter what West did. Leaking his nudes is not OK. It’s a massive invasion of privacy. Although West is upset, he is making light of the situation. He joked:
“Manscaped partnership down the road, hopefully.”
Unfortunately for West, all the backlash may deter brands from partnering with him for a while! The Complex reporter went on to share that he found out his Instagram and Facebook accounts had been hacked the morning of the Summer House reunion. That alone had been frustrating for him. But then, “five seconds before” walking on stage, he learned his nudes had dropped:
“I was like, ‘Motherf**ker.’ I know that I’ve had the worst day of my life already, which is good to know. Also, if you see it, report it.”
Oof! West is really not having a good time right now! It’s more than dealing with the leaked nudes or facing his angry castmates! His grandmother had also allegedly been murdered by his own cousin the night before! Regardless of what you think about West, all of that’s gonna be incredibly difficult for one person to go through in such a short amount of time. We hope he’s taking care of his mental health.
Reflecting on the reunion, West said on the same episode that filming had been “the darkest form of therapy” for him. He also acknowledged he “caused a lot of damage” with his friends, and he hopes that, over time, things will get better between them. The reunion was the first step, and the next? He apparently reached out afterward to apologize to at least one person — his close pal KJ Dillard.
During an appearance on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen on Tuesday, the Summer House newbie revealed he received a text from West the day after taping the reunion. However, he hasn’t looked at it over the past two weeks because he has been too “scared.” Andy Cohen obviously wants the tea, so he, with the help of the audience, encouraged KJ to read it on national television! And he did! The text said:
“‘I wanted to thank you for your articulation and kindness yesterday despite being hurt. I’ve been off social and I think I lost touch with how much hurt there was. I’m incredibly sorry. Also sending you love in regards to your mental health. You shared a lot yesterday and I know it mightn’t carry much weight now but I’m always rooting for the best for you. I know it will take some time but whenever you feel like you’re ready, lunch or a phone call would mean a lot in the spirit of healing. No need to respond, take your time.'”
After reading the message, you could tell KJ was a bit emotional! He even said:
“That hurts.”
Aww! He added:
“It just hurts because it’s, like, me and him were so close.”
Andy then asked if he felt “relieved” after reading the text, and while holding back tears, KJ admitted he “lowkey want[s] to cry” before calling the drama “a very tricky situation.” KJ is also very loyal to Ciara Miller but best friends with West, so we can imagine he is feeling torn between two different directions right now. It’s a tough spot to be in. Maybe one day they’ll find a way to make amends. But for now, KJ seems to be sticking by Ciara. Watch West’s podcast (below):
