‘Summer House’ star Amanda Batula is ‘down’ to appear on ‘RHONY’ reboot

Reality TV

Amanda Batula wants her golden apple.

The “Summer House” star, 31, is willing to join “The Real Housewives of New York City” as the beloved Big Apple-based reality show enters a new era.

“I love the Hamptons, and I love living in the house with everyone. But I can’t do the partying for the rest of my life, so I am down,” she says on the latest episode of Page Six’s “Virtual Reali-Tea” podcast.

Batula, who lives in Manhattan with her husband and fellow “Summer House” cast member, Kyle Cooke, shares that she wouldn’t mind adopting a lifestyle suited for a “RHONY” icon like Luann de Lesseps or Sonja Morgan.

“I’m down to throw some nice events and stay in my apartment in the city and do a really nice trip somewhere for a few days,” she adds.

In March, Bravo announced plans to reboot “RHONY” with an entirely new cast, along with a second show that will feature OG stars.

Andy Cohen detailed the next phase in a Variety interview, explaining that the dual show approach “takes into account everything that our passionate audience has really been telling us over the last year” — which saw “RHONY” ratings drop and the cancellation of the Season 13 reunion.

The “Watch What Happens Live” host, 54, said at the time that the network was prioritizing the reboot and looking to cast a “group of women who are real friends and who are of diverse backgrounds, races and religions.”

Page Six exclusively revealed in August that Lizzy Savetsky — a fashion influencer, mother of three and wife to plastic surgeon Dr. Ira Savetsky — is among the women chosen to participate in the new “RHONY.”

While Batula’s “RHONY” casting may be wishful thinking for the Bravo fandom, viewers can catch her and Cooke, 40 — as well as other personalities from “Summer House,” “Southern Charm” and “Vanderpump Rules” — on “Winter House” Season 2.

“It was a wild trip!” she teases of the group’s latest Vermont vacation. “But we had the best time.”
