Summer House’s Dara Levitan Confirms Split from KJ Dillard – Just Jared – Celebrity News and Gossip
Summer House star Dara Levitan has confirmed her split from co-star KJ Dillard. During the Thursday, June 18, episode of her Five More Minutes podcast, the 33-year-old reality personality announced she is single. The pair, who met through mutual friend and co-star West Wilson, began dating in the summer of 2025 during the filming of season 10 of the Bravo series.
The Timeline of the Split
Speculation regarding the couple’s status surfaced earlier this month when co-star Jesse Solomon mentioned the breakup on Watch What Happens Live. When asked about why the pair had unfollowed each other on social media, the 33-year-old Solomon stated, “They broke up, yeah. Last I heard, they were broken up.”
KJ Dillard previously provided context regarding the relationship’s challenges during the June 2 episode of the More Life With Carl Radke podcast. Dillard, who was diagnosed with borderline personality disorder late last year following a hospitalization for self-harm, noted that the couple took a brief break after filming for season 10 wrapped last summer.
Implications for the Cast and Future Seasons
Dillard characterized the separation as a necessary step for his personal health, explaining that he needed to prioritize his recovery after his hospitalization. “Dara, I think, was gonna hang on… but that wouldn’t have been good for either of us,” Dillard said. He noted that if they had remained together during his recovery, he would have focused on the relationship rather than his treatment.
The dissolution of the relationship follows recent reports that a Summer House star has exited the production and will not appear on season 11. While the show’s casting for the upcoming season remains a focal point for fans, it is unclear how the split between Levitan and Dillard might influence future filming dynamics or cast interactions.
