Ciara Miller questioned whether West Wilson was a “sociopath” during part three of the Summer House reunion — and she stands by the thought.
Taking to Threads just hours after the final part of the reunion aired on Tuesday, June 9, Ciara, 30, rebuffed West’s claim that taking a beta blocker prior to filming helped him “stay composed as much as possible” amid facing backlash over his romance with Amanda Batula. (Cleveland Clinic describes beta blockers as a class of medication “most commonly used for problems involving your heart and circulatory system.”)
“Just a medical note: beta blockers DON’T remove emotion,” Ciara, a registered nurse, wrote via the social media platform. “They work by blocking adrenaline from binding to beta receptors in your heart, blood vessels, and muscles (the receptors responsible for the physical symptoms of anxiety like increased heart rate, raised blood pressure, and trembling).”
Ciara, who dated West, 31, off and on before he and her former close friend Amanda, 34, embarked on a secret relationship in February, continued, “The emotional experience remains, but the physical stress response can’t fully activate. It’s like putting your fight or flight symptoms on DND [do not disturb] … enough with the beta blocker bulls***.”

West’s admission to administering beta blockers came after host Andy Cohen asked whether he was “on a bunch” of meds due to the blank expression he offered to emotional feedback directed his way during the reunion’s third instalment.
“Everybody’s so emotional around you, about you and their relationship with you and you’re like this [blank face]?” Cohen, 58, asked West, who then explained that he was conscious of maintaining composure.
“Or, you’re just a sociopath,” Ciara offered before West then claimed he took one beta blocker prior to filming. “That’s why I’m not sobbing. This matters to me. I apologize if I don’t read emotional enough,” West responded.
Fans on Threads were quick to show their support for Ciara, with one person commenting, “It’s actually hilarious that they thought that would work while in the presence of a nurse.” Another person added, “Can confirm. I’m a beta blocker girlie and can fully express my emotions.”
Part 3 of the Summer House reunion also saw West and Amanda address whether they’d found love with one another amid the scandal. When asked by Cohen whether their romance had turned that serious, West said before expressing his commitment to the relationship, “We are not using the word ‘love’ right now. It’s been two months, three months.”
Amanda, who announced her separation from ex-husband Kyle Cooke in January, agreed that it was too “early” to declare that they’d found love, but the pair were “having conversations about [how] serious our feelings [are] and where it’s going.” (Amanda and Kyle, 43, split after four years of marriage.)
After weeks of speculation at the time, Amanda and West announced via a joint Instagram statement on March 31 that they were indeed romantically involved.
