The milestone season promises to bring serious heat amid the winter chill, especially with real-life breakup tension unfolding between Kyle Cooke and Amanda Batula. So, if you don't want to miss the drama, here's everything to know about the cast, release schedule, and how to watch the chaos play out on screen.
How and when to watch 'Summer House' Season 10?
'Summer House' Season 10 premiered on Tuesday, February 3, at 8 pm ET on Bravo, with new episodes scheduled to air weekly. The show streams live on Bravo and on platforms like Fubo, Hulu + Live TV, YouTube TV, and DIRECTV. Episodes will be available to stream the next day on Peacock, which offers multiple subscription tiers, as per USA Today. In addition, Season 10 brings back seven familiar faces: Batula, Cooke, Lindsay Hubbard, Ciara Miller, Carl Radke, Jesse Solomon, and West Wilson, while shaking things up with a lineup of new houseguests.
Joining the group are Mia Calabrese, a Manhattan real estate broker from Chicago, KJ Dillard, a former pro skateboarder now pursuing modeling and music, Dara Levitan, a content creator with a past connection to West, Levi Sebree, an event planner from Indianapolis fresh out of a long-term relationship, Bailey Taylor, a social media creator behind the It Girl platform, and Ben Waddell, an Australian native and former star of Australia's 'The Bachelor'.
Talking about Cooke and Batula's tumultuous relationship, married for four years, the couple announced their split ahead of the new 'Summer House' season, and Season 10 offers a close look at the cracks that may have led to their breakup. From arriving in the Hamptons in separate cars to Batula's growing frustration over Cooke's new DJ career and party-heavy lifestyle, their conflicting priorities quickly come into focus. Flashbacks highlight Batula's long-standing concerns about Cooke going out too much, with Miller bluntly validating her feelings in the season premiere, as per Parade.
Batula adds to the tension by claiming Cooke pursued a DJ career "to spite me" after she decided to launch her swimwear line, a revelation she shares with friends once they settle into the Hamptons house. Another red flag surfaces at dinner when Batula reveals she stopped wearing her wedding ring after Cooke lost his, prompting Jesse Solomon to joke, "That's OK, you guys can cosplay single." As the episode unfolds, Batula openly talks about her marriage, admitting she feels "numb" to rumors about Cooke that once upset her, confiding to Ciara, "It scares me. I shouldn't feel that way."
Tensions between Cooke and Batula continue to rise as friends, including Radke, voice concerns about Cooke's lifestyle. The strain carries into the season's first party, where Cooke admits he worries they're complete opposites and confesses he's happiest when he's entertaining others, while Amanda shares her frustration with Miller over his constant nights out and the internet rooting for their divorce.
