‘Summer House’: Are KJ & Dara Still Together? Inside the Split Rumors
Fans watched KJ Dillard and Dara Levitan fall for one another on Season 10 of Summer House, and the relationship continued after filming ended in September 2025. By the time the show premiered five months later, the two were going strong, and went public with their relationship as the episodes were airing.
However, recent social media activity has led some Bravo fans to believe that things are no longer working out for KJ and Dara. Below, we’re breaking down everything we know about their relationship and the split rumors.
Are KJ Dillard and Dara Levitan still together?
The status of KJ and Dara’s relationship at the moment remains unclear. Rumors of a breakup surfaced on May 28 when fans noticed that the two unfollowed each other on Instagram.
The timing was majorly unexpected, though, as Dara had referred to KJ as her “forever wedding date” in an Instagram post just four days earlier. She also showed him support by reposting an interview about his mental health journey on May 27 on her Instagram Story.
That same day, Dara wrote on Threads, “To clarify… I am white lol I’m also Jewish, pro Palestine, anti Trump and I absolutely do not / cannot understand the experience of a person of color. Racism is absolutely everywhere and as a white woman dating a black man, loving my friends of color, I want to make that very clear. I do not have to endure the same malignant bigotry and I do not deserve any credit for doing so.” However, she has since seemingly deleted her Threads account.

When Season 10 of Summer House first began airing, the two initially played coy about their relationship status in interviews. “Listen, I’m not one to ruin the fun and spoil the end of a movie or anything of that nature, but I will say he’s wonderful and there is nothing close to bad feelings,” Dara told Page Six.
KJ also told Swooon that he and Dara are on “great terms,” and teased of their summer romance, “We’re definitely into each other and I stopped trying to be one of the boys [when we started hanging out].”
How did KJ Dillard and Dara Levitan meet?
KJ and Dara met through fellow Summer House cast member West Wilson. West knew both of them before the show, which is how KJ became part of the group that heads to the Hamptons every weekend in July and August.
However, Dara wasn’t introduced until West threw a singles’ party in New York City with the hopes of finding Ben Waddell a “missus.” He invited Dara to the event, and she briefly met KJ at the end of the night.
Days later, the cast threw a Renaissance-themed party at their Hamptons house, and West invited Dara to attend. Although she had to re-introduce herself to KJ because he didn’t remember who she was at first, they eventually hit it off and went on their first date to a concert later that week.
“I look back at that clip and I’m like … what state of mind was I in?” KJ told Swooon. “I mean, probably had a few Loverboys at that point, but I still can’t believe I didn’t remember her.”
Did Dara Levitan date West Wilson?
Yes, Dara and West dated for about six months beginning in the fall of 2022. They met on a dating app and had a mostly casual relationship. After ending their romance, they stayed friends.
While appearing on the We Met at Acme podcast, Dara called the relationship “deeply unserious” and said she and West were just enjoying their lives in New York City. “His and my relationship is the first one I had that lasted more than even like two dates after I’d gotten out of my last relationship the year before,” Dara explained. “I really cherish the time we spent because it gave me a safe enough place, you know, dating someone that to remind myself that not all guys are narcissists and going to do you unbelievably dirty.”
Because things never got too serious between them, there was no “heartbreak” when it ended. “It was just sort of that perfect, fun, easy blip after you’ve been wrecked to get back on your feet in dating,” she shared.
West also appears to be totally cool with Dara now dating one of his friends. “It was a long time ago. She’s a good friend [of mine],” he told Us Weekly. “I would never bring anyone into the house that I thought would give me more problems. We’re very cool and platonic.”
