Summer House's Ciara Miller Says 'F*** No' to Being the Next Bachelorette
Summer House star Ciara Miller quickly shut down any hopes of her being the next Bachelorette.
"I'm so happy being single," Ciara, 30, told Glamour on Friday, April 17. "Honestly, I can't imagine anyone being in my apartment. I don't think it's a bad thing to be single."
When asked about some fans theorizing that she could be tapped to lead ABC's dating franchise, Ciara replied, "F*** no. I'm way too private."
Ciara's personal life was thrust into the spotlight in a new way earlier this year when rumors swirled that her ex and costar West Wilson was hooking up with her BFF Amanda Batula. West, 31, dated Ciara in 2023, while Amanda, 34, announced her split from husband Kyle Cooke in January. Amanda and West eventually confirmed their relationship in March.
"Just know when something's weird in your gut, there's a reason. What's done in the dark always comes to light," Ciara told Glamour about weathering the scandal. "And sometimes you really don't even have to do anything except sit back and let the universe handle it all."
Ciara specifically called out Amanda's behavior, noting that the pair's last conversation was "minimal."
"At the end of the day, a guy's a guy. Whether or not West and I are working on a relationship, you just can't put anything past a man," she said. "But I just never would think that it would come from someone like Amanda, who has been what has felt like in my circle and in my corner for so long. I think that's the craziest part."
While addressing the drama, Ciara reflected on the public's opinions about her taste in men. "I don't like it. I do feel like I get a lot of grief for dating people. But here's the thing: I've only technically dated two people publicly," she said. "For people to make a really roundabout statement about my taste based on two people is annoying and frustrating. I'm trying to figure out dating."
She continued: "If I were a f***ing expert, don't you think I would probably be married? But I'm not. Why do we put this pressure on young women like it's our fault for not seeing who this person was immediately? It's our fault for having bad taste in men, when men often present themselves as one way for the first three months and then completely end up being someone totally different."
Ciara also pointed out that dating interracially as a Black woman can provide an added challenge.
"[It is] is a whole other layer - the nuances of interracial dating and how much of a mindf*** it can be. Not only do you have to figure out who this person f***ing voted for, you have to figure out, like, ‘OK, you're attracted to me, you like me, but do you like people that look like me?'" she explained. "‘Because I'm just one person, but would you really advocate for all of us?' That, to me, is important and vital because I don't want to be an exception to your rule at all."
