Ariana Madix is showing Ciara Miller the way after navigating her own public scandal.
In an Instagram video released on Sunday, May 24, Madix, 40, walks in on Miller, 30, counting each piece of luggage she has in a large pile.
“You don’t need all that,” Madix says, as she starts to toss aside the baggage. “No, no, no, no, no.”
As Miller protests about ditching her hats, she asks, “Are you sure?” to which Madix replies, “Trust me. I’ve been there before.”
“Dumped your baggage?” Miller asks. “Sip to that with Frozen Sonic Refreshers.”
The duo captioned their joint Instagram post, “@sonicdrivein New Frozen Refreshers > unnecessary baggage. Every time. #SipToThat #SONICPartner.”
One month prior, Madix and Miller teamed up for a previous Sonic ad where the Vanderpump Rules alum asked the Summer House star if anything “new” was happening in her life.
“No, honestly, life has been pretty chill,” Miller said, as Madix teased, “That’s actually so refreshing to hear because I feel, like, I kind of thought that, you know, things were like …”
Miller explained that she had been “off social media” and drinking her new frozen refreshers, to which Madix replied, “I love that energy … let’s sip to that.”
The ad was released one month after Miller’s ex West Wilson confirmed his romance with her ex BFF Amanda Batula (who had recently separated from husband Kyle Cooke after four years of marriage). The scandal drew comparisons to when it was revealed that Madix’s ex Tom Sandoval was having an affair with Rachel “Raquel” Leviss in 2023.
The Summer House cast is set to address the drama at the upcoming season 10 reunion, with the first of three parts airing on Tuesday, May 26. Ahead of the reunion, Miller gave insight into her mindset.
“Make it to the waiting and make it to the end of all of this. I’m excited to put it all behind me,” Miller told People on the amFAR red carpet on Saturday, May 23. “The reunion was quite the day, but we are on to bigger and better and, you know, we can say goodbye to certain things.”
She continued, “I think it will definitely get some clarity. I think it was very cathartic. It’s one of those situations that’s unfortunate but, you know, I’m so excited to move on from this. You can’t take everyone with you. It’s nice to be able to go into this next chapter of my life and have clarity on who is supposed to be there and who is not.”
As for whether she and Batula, 34, are “dunzo,” Miller replied, “Yeah, for sure. Yeah. I wouldn’t do this to my worst enemy.”
The Summer House season 10 three-part reunion kicks off on Bravo Tuesday, May 26, at 8 p.m. ET.
