'Summer House's Lindsay Hubbard Accuses Amanda Batula of 'Decoy Husband' Move

Lindsay Hubbard believes Amanda Batula and West Wilson were actively trying to deceive their Summer House castmates about their romance this winter.

In a charged Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen appearance, Lindsay questioned Amanda and West's hookup timeline, asked Bailey Taylor, who also appeared on WWHL, if she was present when Amanda and her estranged husband, Kyle Cooke, passionately kissed a month after the couple announced their separation.

"She was grabbing his face and really heavily kissing him, and I was saying, 'What is happening?'" Bailey recalled, sharing that Jesse Solomon clarified the date of the kiss as being February 28. Amanda and Kyle announced they had separated in January. "I said to West, ' What are they doing?' He goes, 'Let them do their thing,' and now I'm wondering why did he say that?"

"Imagine using your husband as a decoy for your boyfriend? Wild!" Lindsay exclaimed as she sat next to Bailey, wearing a horse hair tie designed by Meija Moreno. West wore the same tie when he appeared on WWHL in March, sharing that a "friend" made it.

Lindsay doubled down on WWHL that she believes West and Amanda's romance started before February. "I just think there is a difference between emotional and physical [connection]," she told host Andy Cohen. "And that things in an emotional capacity could have happened before. It's undeniable watching the season."

She also noted that the photo West posted of Ciara Miller playing with her daughter Gemma was meant to throw people off his and Amanda's trail. "He used my child as a bait click to sort of cover up his relationship," Lindsay said. "I didn't like that. And we talk about that at the reunion." At the time, fans were led to believe that Ciara and West made up and were possibly dating.

Andy recalled a moment in a previous Summer House season where the group played a game naming who they trusted the least. Danielle Olivera named Amanda, which sent her into tears. This observation surprised not only Amanda but some viewers, which, today, seems eerily accurate.

"I think that Danielle has a weird witchy intuition, which is always somehow true, but her delivery is always terrible," Lindsay shared.

Summer House is on Tuesdays at 8 p.m. ET/PT on Bravo.
