Are Kyle Cooke and Ava Dash Dating? Summer House Star Spotted with Damon Dash's Daughter

Summer House star Kyle Cooke is back in the headlines — this time not for his dramatic split from ex-wife Amanda Batula, but for a new set of romance rumours linking him to Ava Dash, daughter of music mogul Damon Dash and fashion designer Rachel Roy. The speculation has been reignited after the two were spotted together at the Palm Tree Music Festival, with insiders claiming their interaction was anything but platonic.

Kyle Denied the Rumours in March — Then Came the Festival

The first wave of Kyle and Ava dating speculation surfaced earlier in 2026, before Kyle’s ex-wife Amanda Batula and her new partner West Wilson had even gone public with their relationship. In March 2026, Kyle appeared on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen, where the host directly asked whether he was seeing anyone. Kyle denied being in a relationship and specifically addressed the Ava Dash rumours, explaining:

“No, that was a very friendly dinner. We were at a family dinner doing a family blessing, holding hands, so I was holding [her] hand. It was just a random drinking day in New York.”

Andy Cohen also pressed Kyle about a separate report linking him to Salley Carson, following similar speculation after they were seen together at a dive bar. Kyle dismissed those rumours as well, saying it was simply a group outing with friends.

Palm Tree Music Festival Sighting Reignites Speculation

Despite his earlier denials, fresh buzz erupted when Kyle and Ava were spotted together in the VIP section at the Palm Tree Music Festival. An insider claimed that the two “kissed openly,” and a source for Page Six corroborated the sighting, alleging the pair were seen locking lips. A separate insider added:

“It seemed like something romantic was going on from the way they looked at each other. There was definitely a vibe that they were into each other.”

Ava Dash, who is a well-known author, model, and television personality, has chosen to stay silent on the matter so far, offering no public response to the rumours.

Where Kyle and Amanda Stand Right Now

Adding another layer of complexity to the situation, Amanda Batula — who separated from Kyle in January 2026 — appeared alongside him in the fourth episode of the Bravo series In The City, which premiered in June 2026. During a date night on the show, Kyle asked Amanda directly if she was still in love with him, and she admitted that she was — and that her feelings were precisely why she had moved out, hoping the distance might help them reconnect. Amanda addressed their arrangement plainly:

“We’re not dating other people. We’re not seeing other people. This is to create space to try to actually date each other again. In my delusional little mind, I think that this could actually work.”

As of now, Kyle Cooke has not publicly confirmed any romantic relationship with Ava Dash, leaving fans of both Summer House and In The City closely watching how both storylines unfold.
