West Wilson and Amanda Batula are dating.

Batula and Wilson, 31, fueled dating rumors when Southern Charm star Austen Kroll shared a dinner snap on Sunday, March 29, that read, "Pasta and f--- your friends exes are apparently so back." Fans assumed the post was a reference to a recent Deuxmoi report that the newly confirmed couple was “openly flirty, allegedly even holding hands under the table” at an NYC event.

Batula confirmed the buzz on Tuesday, writing, "We’ve seen the growing online speculation, so while this is still very new, we wanted to provide some clarity. 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 needed a little space to process things privately before speaking on it."

She added, "We’ve shown up for each other as friends over the years, through all the highs and lows, and what’s developed recently was the last thing either of us expected. Our connection grew out of a genuine, long-standing friendship, which made it especially important for us to approach this with care."

"We also recognize that this has had an impact beyond just us and never wanted our actions to cause any hurt or be perceived as careless. We truly appreciate the understanding and respect as we navigate this," she concluded.
