Amanda Batula is embracing a fresh start in her new apartment by collaborating with Lovesac to infuse vibrant colors into her space following her separation from Kyle Cooke. Known to “Summer House” fans for her love of lounging — earning her and friends Ciara Miller and Paige DeSorbo the nickname “The Bedbugs” — Batula is now shifting her focus from bed to couch. She partnered with the furniture brand to create a durable, long-lasting setup that aligns with her comfort-driven lifestyle.
Batula, who wore pieces from DeSorbo’s Daphne line during the campaign, admits her previous decor was dominated by “millennial beige,” featuring pristine white furniture that proved impractical with her two dogs. Her new aesthetic incorporates neutral tones with pops of color, including a blush-pink Lovesac couch and playful accents like a Jonathan Adler pillow shaped like a Prozac pill — a nod to her openness about depression on the Bravo series. She describes the vibe as “living in color,” prioritizing items that evoke happiness and warmth.
As she navigates this new chapter, Batula confirms she and Cooke are on amicable terms and both focused on personal growth. She highlights Miller’s unwavering support during this transition and teases their upcoming “Summer House” spinoff, “In the City,” which will explore their adult journeys alongside co-star Lindsay Hubbard. Batula emphasizes her optimism, stating, “Every day feels better and better,” as she moves forward with positivity.
