Where Carl Radke Stands With Amanda & West After Summer House Exits

‘Summer House’ Season 11 Cast Revealed After Amanda Batula, West Wilson Dating Scandal

Carl Radke is stepping into a new season of life.

And that season does not include his former longtime Summer House costar Amanda Batula, who recently exited the Bravo series on not-so-friendly terms with the cast in the aftermath of her controversial romance with West Wilson.

"I haven't really touched base with her," Carl told E! News in an exclusive interview, adding that he and Amanda texted briefly after filming the explosive season 10 reunion in April. "I wish her all the best. I always will care for her, but I think she's got some things to work on and spend some time on."

Of course, Carl and Amanda's friendship goes back nearly a decade to when she joined the series in season two as the girlfriend of Carl's BFF Kyle Cooke. (Kyle and Amanda announced their divorce in January after four years of marriage.)

However, Carl and Amanda's relationship was severely fractured this year after the 34-year-old secretly started dating West, who has a complex romantic history with Amanda's former best friend Ciara Miller.

But while Carl isn't keeping in touch with Amanda as filming for season 11 recently commenced, he isn't carrying a grudge towards her either.

In fact, the 41-year-old shared, "My advice would be maybe to spend some time privately with your close family and your closest friends who really know who you are and get back to that version of Amanda that I thought I knew."

As for where the Soft Bar co-owner stands with former pal West, who also departed the show last month?

"I wish him all the best," Carl continued, "but I don't really have much to say about him."

But with the love triangle drama now finally behind them, Carl is eager to turn over a new leaf in the Hamptons share house this summer with returning cast members Ciara, Kyle, Lindsay Hubbard, Jesse Solomon, KJ Dillard, Bailey Taylor and Mia Calabrese.

"I'm excited because it feels like we have a new chapter to begin," he admitted amid the recent cast shakeup. "I'm, excited to be the dad and make sure I get bagels and cook steaks for people. I'm excited to dance and let loose and hopefully meet some new people."

"I always enjoy meeting new faces," Carl continued, "whether it's in the house or outside of the house. I'm just pumped because I feel like we've got a really good group heading back."

Plus, Carl noted "everybody's single," so "sky's the limit."

And as Carl keeps things fun and flirty this summer when it comes to dating life, he's also embracing a drama-free morning routine thanks to his partnership with Coffee mate's new Situation-Sip Mixed Fruit Flavored Creamer.

"I'm looking for no strings attached this summer and I want something that's easy and fun and light," he told E!. "Partnering with Coffee mate, I was excited to work with them because I've got a lot going on and I don't have a lot of time to waste. If I'm gonna dedicate my relationship to something, it's gotta be the right fit."

"So," Carl added, "Coffee mate is my situation-sip, as we speak."
