“Summer House” star West Wilson hints in the Season 8 reunion trailer that temptation from female Bravo fans ruined his romance with castmate Ciara Miller.
The reality TV rookie sheds light on the matter at the behest of host Andy Cohen in the teaser released Tuesday.
“Take me through what happened after the cameras went down,” Cohen says.

Wilson, 29, seems to explain that the attention he received from viewers of the opposite sex precluded him from pursuing a meaningful relationship with Miller, 28, since production wrapped last summer.
“The Bravo fan base is all women, like, just these things that I’ve never …” he says, his voice trailing off.
His co-star Amanda Batula then steps in to ask a question that suggests much went down in Wilson’s Instagram DMs post-filming.
“Too many temptations?” she asks.
Miller, for her part, does not address the issue in the preview, though she appears to be holding back tears at one point.
Throughout the latest installment of “Summer House,” the model and the sports journalist have gone back and forth about their status as a couple.
Despite their palpable chemistry, both parties have raised concerns — most notably, Wilson’s hesitance at making things exclusive before sleeping with Miller, who had made it clear that she was uninterested in having sex with him — that ultimately halted them from labeling their relationship.
Last week, Miller’s bestie and castmate Paige DeSorbo teased on Page Six’s “Virtual Reali-Tea” podcast that the ladies had confronted Wilson — and even “cooked” him — over the situation at the reunion, which Bravo taped earlier this month.
“The reunion is a different animal, and we may have cooked West a little bit. We may have overcooked him,” the fashion contributor, 31, recalled. “We did what we needed to do.”
She continued, “Of course I’m going to back my friend up. If your friend is feeling a certain type of way and they’re maybe arguing with a boyfriend or an ex-boyfriend or a situationship, like, regardless of what the conversation is, you’re backing your friend up.”
DeSorbo, 31, noted that she “sat there” and acted as Miller’s “background dancer” as the latter expressed her feelings to Wilson.
“I would repeat what she said just a little bit louder,” she told us. “But that’s my friend, so I would so it again.”
DeSorbo said she was “so proud” of Miller for speaking her mind about West in front of Cohen, 55, and the “Summer House” crew.
“I’m so proud of my friend for being so vulnerable,” she shared, “and saying exactly how she feels and just being her.”
“Summer House” airs Thursdays at 9 p.m. ET on Bravo, with episodes streaming the next day on Peacock. The two-part reunion begins June 6.
