“Summer House” star Carl Radke is sharing his thoughts on West Wilson‘s performance during the season 10 reunion. In a new interview, the Bravo OG said he was disappointed with Wilson’s behavior, stating he failed to take “accountability” for his actions. For those who may be unfamiliar, Wilson made headlines at the end of March 2026 when he announced his romantic relationship with his co-star, Amanda Batula, who split from her husband (and Wilson’s friend), Kyle Cooke, in January 2026.

Speaking with Us Weekly, Radke spoke about the explosive three-part reunion, which began airing this past Tuesday, May 26, and said that Wilson failed to take “accountability” for his actions.

“I think a lot of us were hoping to feel the feeling you get when someone actually apologizes and takes accountability,” he said. “Especially watching it now, I didn’t feel it, and that’s what’s hard.”

Continuing, Radke said that people were deeply hurt by Wilson’s actions, including his friend Cooke and his ex-girlfriend, Ciara Miller.

“People are really hurt. Ciara, Kyle. I mean, I’m looking at him right now. He’s my best friend, and watching that s–t, the footage of West at his family house with Kyle. Like, he not only brought Ciara home, he brought Kyle home. And then does that. It’s just diabolical,” Radke said.

Radke Said He Has ‘Little’ Grace For Wilson After He Betrayed His ‘Summer House’ Castmates

This isn’t the first time Radke has spoken about his relationship with Wilson. According to a previous report from The Blast, Radke said that Wilson had reached out to him after filming the reunion, but he hadn’t replied at the time.

“I’m not ready to respond,” Radke said. “From what I know, what’s gone on and how he’s kinda handling it and how I handle things… part of me worries he doesn’t fully understand still the impact of this.”

Radke, who joined the cast of “Summer House” in 2017, then called out Wilson for his repetitive behavior, noting that he’s been in the hot seat for hurting his co-stars before.

“We’ve been over this many times with him with Ciara and everything, many dinner tables on camera, many seasons,” Radke said. “And here we are again. So, I don’t have a lot of grace for some of it.”

Wilson Announced He Was Dating Batula After Months Of Speculation

Wilson confirmed his relationship with Batula (Miller’s former best friend) with a joint post on Instagram.

“We’ve seen the growing online speculation, so while this is still very new, we wanted to provide some clarity,” they shared online. “It was never our intention to purposely hide anything. Given the complicated relationship dynamics involved and the scrutiny that comes with being on a reality show, we need a little space to process things privately before speaking on it.”

Per the Daily Dish, Wilson detailed when he and Batula actually got together during the reunion, saying, “This wasn’t a sex scandal.” He went on to say that things turned romantic between them after they’d been hanging out for some time.

“When we were out, I, like, kind of looked at Amanda, and I was like, ‘Am I f–kin’ crazy, or is there a little something going on here?” he said.

Miller Slams Batula During ‘Summer House’ Reunion

Although Bravo has only aired one part of the “Summer House” reunion, it was packed with drama. The show immediately opened with Miller confronting Batula for betraying her. By the end of the first part, Miller told host Andy Cohen and her co-stars that she believed there was a chance Wilson and Batula would work out.

“I honestly think that the best, like, woman for West is, like, someone who’s not gonna check him on anything, and that’s totally Amanda,” Miller said. “She’s very mute. She’s gonna be that weak figure that he needs, and he can always be the star in the relationship. So, I actually think, like, maybe it could work.”

Life has taken several unexpected turns for Britney Spears over the past year, and the pop star appears to be reflecting on many of them in her own unique way.

In a lengthy social media post, Spears opened up about emotional challenges, family memories, creative experiments, and personal healing while looking back on a period marked by legal troubles and a stay in rehab.

Britney Spears recently shared a deeply personal message on Instagram before later deleting it, giving fans a glimpse into her state of mind after a turbulent year.

Although she avoided directly discussing the legal issues that have dominated headlines in recent months, the singer acknowledged that the past year had been anything but ordinary.

“This year has been quite interesting… I’ve never done so many arts and crafts and it’s sort of embarrassing ok so I might have went a bit coo coo in the nest when I honestly believed I could create my own stained glass …,” Spears wrote per the Daily Mail.

The singer explained that she became fascinated with creating stained-glass artwork, spending time arranging “bits and pieces of broken glass” on “white sheets.”

Despite owning a “glass blowing machine,” she revealed that she was unable to use it for her project.

Instead, she continued experimenting with the materials she had available, turning the creative process into an outlet during a period that has clearly been filled with emotional ups and downs.

Emotional Memories Surface In The Kitchen

While discussing her latest artistic hobby, Britney Spears also revealed that one particular part of her home continues to stir difficult emotions.

The singer admitted that being in the kitchen often brings back memories tied to family gatherings and moments from her past.

“I have a lot of emotional issues that come up in my kitchen…” Spears confessed.

She went on to explain why the room seems to affect her so deeply.

“I have no idea why… I guess that’s usually where we as family all come together to celebrate, pray and cook and well for some reason I did my crafts there….,” she wrote.

For Spears, the kitchen appears connected to memories of loved ones and shared experiences. Her relationships with family members have often been complicated over the years, including highly publicized tensions involving her parents, sister, and children.

The creative project unexpectedly transformed her relationship with the space, giving her a reason to spend time there again after years of avoiding it.

Britney Spears Finds Comfort In A Handmade Creation

After working late into the night on her stained-glass project, Spears eventually completed a lamp assembled from broken pieces.

The result had a surprisingly powerful effect on her.

“To my surprise it was by no means perfect but my heart and whole body became one with it and I melted with the soft pink and purple glow before me as if I fell in love,” she wrote.

The lamp became more than a simple craft project. According to Spears, it changed how she felt about spending time in her kitchen.

“Ok I get its a f-cking broken lamp with shattered glass pieces put together somehow to create light… but I found myself wanting to go to the kitchen after years of not wanting to…l was excited to go to the kitchen in the middle of the night to eat my cereal or snacks … something very demure to me and one of a kind,” she shared.

Spears added that the lamp gave her “the most peaceful feeling” and remained exactly where she first placed it, “in my kitchen for 3 months… I never moved it from when I first made it.”

Britney Spears Shares Frustration After Lamp Disappears

The story took a disappointing turn when Spears claimed the handmade lamp was accidentally thrown away.

According to the singer, her housekeeper discarded the creation “as if it was a napkin,” leaving her frustrated but resigned.

Rather than confronting anyone about it, Spears said she simply accepted the loss.

“I didn’t even fight or ask where it was I just knew and learned about humanity and decided last night I choose animals over people,” she wrote.

The singer ended her Instagram post with one of its most unusual reflections.

“I am actually AWAKENED to KNOW that something like SLEEPING in bed with a LION…something that holy and royal instead sleeping with a person has honestly given me the highest consciousness I’ve ever felt in my life.”

Legal Troubles Continue To Follow The Singer

The emotional post arrived only days after renewed attention surrounding Britney Spears’ recent legal issues.

In March, the singer was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence after police reportedly observed erratic driving on a California freeway.

Authorities alleged that Spears admitted to taking Adderall, Prozac, and Lamictal, while also telling officers she had consumed “one champagne mimosa” earlier in the day.

Earlier this month, she resolved the case through a plea agreement that reduced the original DUI allegation to reckless driving. The outcome included probation, a fine, and mandatory DUI education classes.

Between her March arrest and the May plea agreement, Spears spent three weeks in a substance abuse rehabilitation facility.

Whether discussing broken lamps, family memories, or personal awakening, Spears’ message painted the picture of someone still trying to make sense of a difficult chapter while searching for peace in unexpected places.

Brooks Nader suffered a fashion mishap during Miami Swim Week.

Nader, 29, arrived at the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Beach Club at W South Beach on Friday, May 29. The model donned a red mini off-the-shoulder dress for the occasion. The garment also featured cutouts so Nader could show some skin. She completed the look with gold heels and left her blonde hair down with beach waves.

According to photos obtained by Page Six, Nader was spotted wading in the ocean with Stassi Shroeder, Molly Sims and more attendees. Nader ended up getting on a man’s shoulders while in the water. While sitting on top of the guy, her dress lost a strap causing the fabric to come down. Nader was left exposed and she covered her chest with her hand.

Like a total pro, Nader attempted to fix the garment. The drenched top can be seen sticking to the model’s body in additional shots. Despite the snafu, Nader was seemingly in good spirits. In an additional photo, Nader could be seen laughing while attempting to hold up her dress.

While at the event, Brooks was joined by her sisters Mary Holland Nader, 26, Grace Ann Nader, 25, and Sarah Jane Nader, 22. The siblings were spotted filming for their reality show, Love Thy Nader, per the outlet.

This isn’t Brooks’ first encounter with a wardrobe malfunction. Earlier this month, she suffered another mishap moments before hitting the red carpet at the 2026 Fox Upfront in New York City. Brooks took to her social media to share what fans didn’t see prior to the event.

“When you bust out of your dress 4 min before showtime!!!!” the Baywatch actress wrote via her Instagram Story. “Classssssicc 😅🤣.”

Brooks included a mirror selfie that showed the back of her red cocktail dress, which had split open and revealed her lace underwear. Brooks shared there was a team of seamstresses backstage who were able to assist her.

“We’ve got 4 earth angels sewing me back into this sucker,” she captioned a snap of an assistant working to remedy the situation.

Brooks was able to make it out to the red carpet looking flawless. Her dress featured a halter neck and a fitted bodice. The design matched the iconic Baywatch swimsuit. She completed the look with matching red heels and diamond earrings.

During the event, Brooks spoke about joining the cast of the Baywatch reboot and how she manifested the role years before.

“I kinda manifested this role with my Sports Illustrated cover in 2023. I was wearing a red one-piece. I was like, ‘This is so Baywatch!’ And lo and behold, here we are,” she gushed to Extra. “It’s a pinch me moment, and hopefully we make everyone proud.”

No one will ever say Nicolas Cage is the kind of actor who can literally do no wrong, since he has been in his fair share of less-than-great movies over the years, but to his credit, he is also often the best part of those not-great movies. See Deadfall, which is unwatchable whenever Cage isn’t on-screen, hamming it up, and Vampire’s Kiss, which is a cult classic for Cage’s performance alone. And then, of course, there are the good movies he’s been in, and some of the time, his good movies even let him ham it up (see Face/Off). But all his roles, until Spider-Noir, were in movies, so it’s kind of interesting that he’s been acting for so long without any television roles.

Spider-Noir has him reprising a role he did in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, but in live-action this time, since Into the Spider-Verse was a voice-only role in an animated movie. That makes it even more of a curiosity, but, like, when has Nicolas Cage not been one of Hollywood’s most curiosity-worthy actors? Anyway, he recently stated that Breaking Bad helped convince him television was worth tackling, and so that’s another reason to be thankful for what is – it’s hopefully not controversial to say – one of the greatest TV shows of the 21st century so far.

What Happens Throughout ‘Breaking Bad’

In case you’ve been living under a rock the size of Walter White’s ego, Breaking Bad is about a chemistry teacher (Walt, played by Bryan Cranston) who gets diagnosed with lung cancer, and this prompts him to begin manufacturing methamphetamine as a way to earn money. The drama of the series initially revolves around him trying to do so without his family finding out the truth, but then things spiral out of control, and it becomes more about “when” he’ll be found out, rather than “if.”

And there are plenty of ways Breaking Bad escalates, and then it’s also remarkable as a character study, since the experience seems to change Walt drastically, or it simply releases pre-existing aspects/flaws of his personality. Either way, he becomes gradually harder to call an anti-hero (if you want to label him as such initially in the first place), and is easy to call the show’s villain by the final season, owing to the sheer number of morally questionable things he does up until that point in the show. So, there’s a compelling character journey, and an increasingly interesting set of moral questions raised by the show, but that’s really only scratching the surface.

Why ‘Breaking Bad’ Is Considered Such a Masterpiece

Breaking Bad has plenty of interesting characters beyond Walt, including the likes of Saul (Bob Odenkirk), Mike (Jonathan Banks), and Gus Fring (Giancarlo Esposito), all of whom got more to do in Better Call Saul, which was largely a prequel series to Breaking Bad. There’s also Jesse (Aaron Paul), who’s kind of the heart of the series, and Skylar (Anna Gunn), Walt’s wife, who’s a divisive character, even though it’s pretty easy to see – sooner rather than later – that Walt is a considerably worse person. But all these characters, and various others, are balanced well, and they populate what ends up being an engaging fictional world, since Walt’s forays into the illegal drug trade ensure he crosses paths with plenty of complicated and varied characters.

There’s also an impressive balance achieved when it comes to genre and tone, since Breaking Bad is mostly suspenseful/thrilling, but is also quite funny at times, and then successfully enters more outwardly tragic territory as it nears (what kind of has to be) an explosive conclusion. There’s that simple premise, since Breaking Bad is a more or less villain origin story, so you’re hooked pretty much straight away, and then there are all the other ways the show finds opportunities to be a little more complex, unpredictable, or otherwise emotionally adventurous.

The Connection ‘Breaking Bad’ Has to ‘Spider-Noir,’ According to Nicolas Cage

It’s the pacing of Breaking Bad, and the character journey Walt goes through, that Nicolas Cage cited as the main reasons why Spider-Noir looked like an enticing opportunity to act in a TV series for the first time in 40+ years of acting. Cage himself put it well, telling Variety about how he reacted to certain drawn-out scenes in Breaking Bad that allowed Cranston to do a lot with seemingly small moments, and that with movies, “You don’t have the time.” Cage also said, “I thought, maybe with an eight-hour narrative I can start planting seeds for a character that can bloom into something that I don’t have the luxury of time to do in a movie.”

Things might start entering “big stretch” territory if more comparisons between Breaking Bad and Spider-Noir are made, since you could broadly call them crime/drama series, and Spider-Noir harkens back to classic film noir and neo-noir stuff, obviously, with such stories being about shady characters and questions of morality, which you get a bit of in Breaking Bad. It’s nice that, sooner rather than later, Cage embraced television, and that he did so for an unusual series which has been getting, so far, quite a good reception (with Cage’s performance also being praised). Maybe if he drifts away from television again, and there’s a need for inspiration to make him return, someone can show him The Wire, The Americans, or The Sopranos (if he’s also waited some years to check those out, as was the case with watching Breaking Bad).
