Exclusive Source Denies Ciara Miller and Michael B. Jordan Romance Rumours
Summer House star Ciara Miller remains one of Hollywood's most eligible bachelorettes following the shocking revelation that her best friend and former hookup are now dating. Fans have been eagerly hoping for the beloved reality star to find redemption by moving on with a bigger and more powerful celebrity than her ex and co-star West Wilson.
Rumours Sparked by Anonymous Tip
The rumour mill began buzzing intensely just two weeks ago when the popular gossip Instagram account DeuxMoi received a titillating tip linking Miller to A-list actor Michael B. Jordan. The anonymous tipster claimed that global superstar Rihanna - a well-known, die-hard Summer House fan who had reportedly shown her allegiance to Miller by unfollowing West Wilson and Amanda Batula on Instagram - had decided to play matchmaker for the 30-year-old reality star.
'She's been DMing her and a VERY prominent A-list actor who JUST won an award and is apparently very interested,' the tip continued. Followers immediately concluded this must refer to Jordan, 39, who had recently won the Oscar for Best Actor for his dual roles in the hit film Sinners.
Co-Star's Coy Response Fuels Speculation
Earlier this week, when Andy Cohen asked Miller's best friend and co-star Mia Calabrese on Watch What Happens Live if there was any truth to the rumours, she played coy and responded: 'I'm open to it. I hope it's true.' This response only served to heighten speculation among fans and entertainment observers about a potential high-profile romance.
Exclusive Denial from Source Close to Jordan
However, The Daily Mail has exclusively learned that Jordan has not had any contact with Miller whatsoever, and any claims that he has expressed romantic interest in dating her are completely unfounded. 'It's just a rumor,' a source close to the actor exclusively revealed. 'He's editing his film and has no time for anything else right now.'
Jordan has been completely tied up with the highly anticipated remake of The Thomas Crown Affair, in which he not only stars as the leading man but has also taken on directorial responsibilities. The actor made his first public appearance since the Oscars on Wednesday evening in Las Vegas, where he gave the audience at CinemaCon an exclusive first look at the 1968 crime-thriller remake.
Jordan's Focus on Career Over Romance
The original film centres around a billionaire who steals a painting from the Metropolitan Museum of Art and is then pursued by an insurance investigator - played by Adria Arjona in Jordan's version - with the two characters ultimately falling in love. Despite this romantic storyline, Jordan has been very open about the fact that romance has taken a back seat to his profession in recent years due to his demanding schedule and career commitments.
'I go back and forth between wanting partnership and then not knowing what's the best partner for me,' the Creed star explained during an appearance on the Jay Shetty Podcast in 2024. 'Like bringing them into my world and what I have going on isn't easy. It's not just I love you, you love me. That should be enough right? It's not quite that simple. Finding the right person to understand all of me, but then all that comes with me, as well.'
Dating Challenges for High-Profile Actor
Ahead of the Academy Awards, sources further explained to The Daily Mail that Jordan can find it particularly 'difficult' to date because it's challenging to find someone properly aligned with his unique lifestyle and ambitious career goals. 'He doesn't want to be single, but he is choosing to be because that is what life is bringing him right now. He's likely going to be single for a while,' a source revealed.
The insider noted that after his headline-making relationship with Lori Harvey ended without working out, Jordan decided he 'may as well put his all into his work,' a strategy that has clearly paid off given all the accolades and professional achievements he has accomplished in recent years.
Miller's Relationship Status Unclear
It remains unclear whether Miller herself is ready to dive back into the dating pool following the betrayal by Wilson and Batula. The reality star has yet to directly address the scandal publicly, but is scheduled to speak about it soon when she and her co-stars come face-to-face at the Summer House season 10 reunion special.
Meanwhile, Batula, 34, and Wilson, 31, appear to be going strong despite public backlash, having been spotted bar-hopping together in New York City last weekend. In a joint statement that confirmed their romance following weeks of secrecy and intense speculation, the pair explained: 'It was never our intention to purposely hide anything. Given the complicated relationship dynamics involved and the scrutiny that comes with being on a reality show, we needed a little space to process things privately before speaking on it.'
They added: 'We've shown up for each other as friends over the years, through all the highs and lows, and what's developed recently was the last thing either of us expected. Our connection grew out of a genuine, long-standing friendship, which made it especially important for us to approach this with care.'
Ongoing Drama Within Summer House Cast
Batula remains legally married to her other Summer House co-star Kyle Cooke, though the two announced their split in January, just before Batula and Wilson went public with their relationship. Cooke, 43, has shown support for his estranged wife and her mental health despite all the surrounding drama, but has shared that he was preparing to 'confront' Wilson about the situation.
The Daily Mail has reached out to representatives for both Ciara Miller and Michael B. Jordan for additional comment on these developments and the persistent rumours about a potential romantic connection between the two celebrities.
