Ciara Miller and Lexi Wood “hashed out” their beef over “Summer House” castmate Jesse Solomon at the recent Season 9 reunion taping.
According to co-star West Wilson, the drama with Wood — who accused ex-fling Solomon and Miller of skipping her birthday party last summer to hang out together during a Page Six interview — was discussed with host Andy Cohen.
“That was talked about at the reunion actually, that specific interview. Because Ciara had words about that specific messaging. So I’ll let them hash it out because I wasn’t a part of either side,” Wilson, 30, tells “Virtual Reali-Tea.”
“That birthday clip is fully hashed out,” adds the journalist while promoting his partnership with Pedigree Drizzlers, a mealtime sauce just for dogs.
Last month, Wood, 27, stopped by the Page Six studio to chat about her reality TV debut — and, specifically, what she thought about Solomon, 31, and Miller’s flirtatious social media interactions that have progressed since filming wrapped last summer. Just weeks ago, the duo got cozy while filming content from Coachella.
“Jesse trolls. Like, half of everything he posts is, like, a troll job,” West tells “VRT,” while noting that this dynamic existed even when he and Miller, 29, explored a relationship in Season 8.
“They behaved that way while Ciara and I were getting to know each other last summer. So, to me … I never thought of it as romantic. I guess maybe? Like, I’m in no place to tell either of them what to do. But it just doesn’t seem that way because it’s felt the same since the beginning of our first summer if that makes sense.”
In recent episodes of “Summer House,” Solomon’s playful behavior with Miller — and a toe-sucking incident with another woman that occurred off camera — has caused tons of conflict for Wood as he had strongly pursued the Canadian beauty from the start of production.
Despite the friction over Solomon, West tells “VRT” that he believes Wood and Miller are capable of developing a strong friendship in the future.
“Not to bring the Canadian thing up. But Lexi is Canadian and super kind, so I don’t see her being, like, ‘You’re dead to me.’ I think Lexi would always be open arms to friendship,” he says. “And I think she mentioned that too [at the reunion]. But yeah, they definitely hashed things out.”
Although they hashed things out at the reunion, Miller made sure to shut down the birthday party gossip during an appearance on “Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen” this week.
“Also the rumor that, like, we skipped somebody’s birthday party — specifically Lexi’s birthday party — to, like, hang out … that didn’t happen,” she said.
This statement contradicted what Wood told “VRT” about the situation.
“I had a birthday party and I invited everyone and a certain two people didn’t answer and then a certain two people hung out that day instead,” she said when asked about the pair’s enduring chemistry. “So, yeah, I think at this point, it’s been a while and I’m not surprised.”
While guest co-hosting SiriusXM’s “Page Six Radio” on Tuesday, “Summer House” personality Gabby Prescod shared her take on the matter — and how “VRT” was involved at the reunion.
“You are the drama,” Prescod, 34, told “VRT” co-hosts Evan Real and Danny Murphy.
“I think that Lexi’s point was to be like, ‘Jesse’s just being rude in general.’ I think Ciara was collateral in that argument. I don’t think Lexi meant it to be like that, but Ciara caught a stray a little bit,” the fashion editor shared. “It definitely was addressed.”
Like West, Prescod expressed optimism that Wood and Miller can be gal pals one day. (Wood previously told “VRT” that she, too, would like to bury the hatchet.)
“I don’t think that there’s anything there in terms of animosity. I think that, honestly, the issue us between Lexi and Jesse. And unfortunately, because Jesse is so overly flirtatious with Ciara, she just is getting dragged into it,” she said.
“And Ciara’s like, ‘That’s none of my business.’ And Lexi is like, ‘Yeah, that’s not your fault.’”
‘Summer House” airs Wednesdays at 9 p.m. ET on Bravo with new episodes streaming the next day on Peacock. West is set to host a hot dog stand on May 17 in New York City, where pet parents can bring their dogs to taste test Pedigree Drizzlers.
