Ciara Miller is saying the quiet part out loud.
The Summer House star was recently featured in Interview Magazine, where she gave her unfiltered takes on everything from Bravo fame to producers, Prozac and karma. And in true Ciara fashion, she managed to be funny, honest and just shady enough to get fans talking.
Ciara has been having one of her most talked about seasons yet, especially after the fallout involving her ex West Wilson and former best friend Amanda Batula. The drama has taken over the Summer House reunion, with Ciara making it clear that she feels betrayed by both of them.
So when Ciara was asked about karma, her answer definitely stood out.
“I believe in it, and I know a few people who’ve got some bad karma coming in their future.”
While Ciara did not name names, fans will obviously wonder whether she was referring to some of her Summer House castmates. After all, Ciara has been front and center in one of the messiest friend group fallouts Bravo has seen in a while.
Ciara also opened up about what makes reality TV work behind the scenes, giving major credit to producers. According to her, having the right producer is everything, especially when you are expected to be vulnerable on camera.
“Really good producers are the difference between life and death. On my show, they know they have to give me the same producer every year. I can’t tell my secrets to a new one. They would be shooting themselves in the foot if they tried.”
That comment gives fans a peek behind the curtain of Summer House and the trust that has to exist between cast members and production. Ciara has shared plenty on the show over the years, from relationship heartbreak to friendship drama, so it makes sense that she would want someone familiar behind the camera.
Ciara also weighed in on what it feels like to be a Bravolebrity, calling it a strange kind of fame.
“It’s a weird sub-genre of celebrity. It’s really nuts when real celebrities are excited to meet you. It’s the strangest out-of-body experience, because I’m like,‘Well, you’re the star.’”
Ciara’s point is relatable for Bravo fans who have watched reality stars become major pop culture figures. Summer House may have started as a show about weekends in the Hamptons, but its cast has become increasingly visible in fashion, entertainment and celebrity spaces.
And Ciara is no exception. Between her modeling career, red carpet appearances and Bravo popularity, she has become one of the franchise’s most recognizable faces.
Still, Ciara is also open about the emotional side of being on reality TV. When asked about Prozac, she joked about how much she loves it while also admitting she is still very much a crier.
“I need to up my dose, because I’m still crying quite a bit for someone on this high of a dose. I mean, not as much as pre-Prozac. I could cry just talking about how much I love it right now.”
It also tracks with what fans have seen from her this season. Miller has been emotional but composed while confronting Amanda and West, especially after learning that Amanda had feelings for West and allegedly was not honest with her when asked directly.
Throughout the Summer House reunion, Miller has been praised for how clearly she expressed herself. Andy Cohen even recently said he had “never seen anyone more ready” for a reunion, calling Ciara clear, confident and strong.
