In a delightful twist of fate, reality TV personalities Kyle Cooke and Meghan King experienced a spontaneous, flirtatious encounter while enjoying a night out in New York City.
According to an insider speaking exclusively to Us Weekly, “Kyle was unfamiliar with Meghan before coincidentally attending the same event. She made the first move as soon as she noticed him.” The source added, “Kyle was enjoying a few drinks and having a good time with her. While it wasn’t anything serious, they spent the entire evening together, even after the event ended, and shared several public kisses.”
Paparazzi captured photos of the 43-year-old Summer House star and Meghan, 41, in a romantic moment as they strolled through Manhattan. This came after they attended a ’90s-themed bash hosted by Page Six at the trendy Temple Bar on Thursday, April 16.
A different source revealed that Kyle, who recently became single, had arrived at the gathering with a group of friends around 8:30 p.m. and was eventually seen mingling with Meghan and other attendees.
This unexpected encounter emerges amid drama involving Kyle’s estranged wife, Amanda Batula. Amanda’s budding romance with fellow Summer House cast member West Wilson has created a stir among their circle. In a candid TikTok interview with Adam Glyn on April 1, Kyle expressed his feelings: “It’s a lot to digest. It’s not just about me, Amanda, and West; it’s affecting our entire friend group, including Ciara [Miller].”
“He seemed in great spirits, catching up with friends and being especially warm and appreciative with staff,” the insider explains. “Meghan did seem interested and gravitated toward him more as the night went on.”
After the event wrapped around 10 p.m., the source tells Us that Kyle and Meghan left with a group and headed to Bar Bianchi, where they stayed until around 1 a.m.
“It felt more like a fun, slightly flirty night out than anything serious,” the insider shares. “The kissing seemed like something just after a few drinks and a good night with friends.”
