Kyle Cooke and Amanda Batula first met in the summer of 2015 at a bar in New York City. Their initial meeting led to a date that night at a restaurant called Coina Latina, where they had margaritas. After their first meeting, the pair dated casually for several months between 2015 and 2016. During this period, Kyle was hesitant about a serious commitment, leading them to call things off briefly before reconnecting in the Hamptons. In 2017, Amanda was introduced in Summer House Season 1 as Kyle's friend and a frequent hook-up. By the end of the first instalment, they officially became a couple.
