The pair were caught on the kiss cam smooching in the stands, with Wilson, 31, leaning over to lock lips with Batula, 34, as shown on the YES Network.

Their romance set off a public furor because Batula while Wilson was also pals with Batula's estranged husband Kyle Cooke, whom she split from in January.

Batula and Wilson initially kept their dalliance a secret before going public last month, igniting a scandal that fans have begun to call 'Scamanda.'

Undeterred, the pair surfaced together at Yankee Stadium in the Bronx this Friday to watch the home team face off against the City Royals. 

Their public display of affection on the kiss cam led to an outpouring of contempt on social media, where observers posted jibes like: 'somehow this is even worse than the concert,' and: 'It's like watching siblings kiss.'

'My stomach dropped like I’m watching my own ex bf kiss my ex bff,' one fan fulminated as another snapped: 'I sincerely wish the worst for both of them.'

'This just feels plain mean. Who needs enemies when you have friends like these!!!!' one Instagram user exclaimed in reaction to the footage. 

Summer House star Ciara Miller - seen on March 30 - has generally taken the high road where West Wilson’s romance with Amanda Batula is concerned, but she's making her feelings known now

'Just know when something's weird in your gut, there's a reason,' Miller said. 'What's done in the dark always comes to light. And sometimes you really don't even have to do anything except sit back and let the universe handle it all.'

The Atlanta native and the sports writer hit it off in summer of 2023 but it was over six months later, with Miller citing Wilson's refusal to commit 'for show-related reasons' on the season eight reunion.

The statement came just days after Wilson insisted Batula was just his 'homegirl' – 'that’s a friend,' he said – and not a romantic partner on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen.

Miller told Glamour she leaned on Batula the most while navigating her breakup from Wilson. 'I do feel like I was closer to Amanda at that particular time,' she said, adding that Batula 'always felt like a nonjudgmental figure to go to.'

Meanwhile, Miller said that Wilson told her he was done 'sleeping with people on Bravo.'

'Obviously,' she quipped, that was now 'out the window.'

It's looking to be an awkward Summer House reunion, which is set to film later this month.
