Leva Bonaparte DEFENDS Kyle Cooke Against Cheating Rumors!
Leva Bonaparte is standing up for Kyle Cooke amid rumors that he was seen getting cozy with a woman who was not his wife, Amanda Batula, at her Charleston bar, Lamar’s.
After a video surfaced online showing Kyle, 41, with an unnamed woman, and sparking allegations of infidelity, Southern Charm’s Leva, 45, addressed the “very damaging” rumors by sharing her firsthand account of the evening.
“I was present for this entire interaction and evening. And I can’t stand by and watch the internet go after someone’s marriage when it’s based on zero facts,” Leva began in a message sent to FaceReality16. She then laid out the “actual facts.”
Leva explained that Joe Bradley, 28, had texted her about bringing Kyle to Lamar’s to check out the new space. Refuting claims that Kyle was intoxicated, she confirmed, “There are many accounts claiming he was drunk, which is a lie.”
Reflecting on the night, Leva said she and her husband, Lamar Bonaparte, 47, spent significant time showing Kyle around and having in-depth discussions with him.
“In the video, he is speaking to a woman who is a good friend of mine and also happens to be a decade-old friend of Kyle’s,” Leva shared. “Let me also mention that this girlfriend of ours is in a very committed relationship and she came by my club to meet me for a drink, before we went home together.” Leva noted that the woman, who wished to remain anonymous, spoke with Kyle for “a maximum of five minutes” before departing.
“Kyle and our friend were simply catching up on life since she now has a family and has established herself in her profession. Kyle was congratulating her, this was purely a friendly interaction!” Leva emphasized.
Expressing her disappointment over the rumors, Leva described Amanda, 32, as a “lovely person” and added, “I would hate for anyone to try to hurt her. Especially since she was not present for a simple innocent conversation that her spouse was having.”
Leva’s statements were shared following a bravo account called FaceReality16 posting the video clip online.
“Love you guys,” she concluded. There is no word yet on a ninth season of Summer House.
