What Ciara shared about her family dynamics on the Summer House season 9 reunion
In the Summer House reunion, Andy read out a fan question, which mentioned that Ciara was having a hard time dealing with her separation from West because she was going through "drama" on her family side. Andy then asked her to elaborate on it.
Ciara stated that towards the end of her relationship with West, her mom got married again, and it affected her more than she thought it would. She further said that her mom had been married a couple of times, and as her daughter, she didn't have the capacity to get to know another new person.
"I don't speak to my dad," she added.
She further stated that she and West had a friendship, and during that time, he was in "his own world". He wasn't there for her, which was hard to deal with. To this, West recalled how Ciara had turned her phone off for two weeks, at a time which was important to both of them.
Ciara explained that she just wanted to get through December because it was Christmas and it was her birthday, so she went to a retreat in Costa Rica. It was her way of shutting off and keeping away from the hurt she was feeling from her family. She added that she wanted to communicate, but she didn't want to feel like a burden on him.
The next episode of Summer House season 9 comes out on Bravo on Wednesday at 9 pm ET.
