Amanda Batula is officially swapping the city for some peace and quiet. Page Six has confirmed the reality star won't be returning for the second season of the *Summer House* spin-off, *In the City*, after she was reportedly offered only a 'part-time' role by Bravo bosses.

Insiders are split on the real reason for the exit. One source claims Amanda refused to film unless her boyfriend, West Wilson, was included—a demand producers allegedly shot down. However, other sources suggest the couple felt it wasn't the 'right time' to be on screen, while financial disagreements over her salary also stalled talks.

Breaking her silence on social media, Amanda admitted that 'continued hate' and 'bullying' from fans was a massive factor in her decision to quit, saying she wasn't ready to be 'ripped apart' for entertainment anymore.

The exit has already turned nasty, with estranged hubby Kyle Cooke launching a scathing, since-deleted attack on West's Instagram. Cooke accused Wilson of being a 'coke head' who blew up Amanda's career, while Amanda hit back by supporting fan comments that labeled Kyle 'manipulative.'
