Kyle Cooke is adding fuel to the heated Spritz Society feud between Craig Conover, who invested in Spritz, and his own alcohol company, Loverboy.
The “Summer House” star shaded Conover’s Spritz Society investment during Page Six’s “Virtual Reali-Tea” live event with Evan Real and Danny Murphy, presented by Tri-State Cadillac, on Thursday.
When asked for his reaction about Page Six receiving a press release from Spritz Society publicizing how they’d be featured on an upcoming episode of “Summer House,” Cooke quipped that he was the “least surprised.”
“I mean, I’m the least surprised,” Cooke, 42, roared. “I think the only press they’ve received in the last year has had my name on it –– or the show.”
However, Cooke quickly clarified that he doesn’t “blame” influencer couple Ben Soffer and Claudia Oshry –– who founded Spritz Society –– for their part in the rift and still faults Conover, 37.
“I think Craig just fed them a bunch of misinformation, which is what he does, and I don’t actually blame them whatsoever,” Cooke said.
“It’s really just when integrity is compromised is when I have issue,” he concluded.
Conover and Cooke initially made headlines last year when Conover explained to Page Six why he had opted to invest with Spritz instead of Loverboy.
Cooke later intensified the feud when he appeared on an episode of “Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen” in May 2024 and accused Conover of “lying” to him about the investment.
Cooke claimed that Conover told him about a potential opportunity to invest with Spritz Society, so Cooke asked Conover to let him make a counteroffer to instead invest in his company, Loverboy.
However, Cooke theorized that Conover had actually already signed with Spritz Society and lied to him about possibly choosing Loverboy over Spritz.
“I think Craig had already signed the deal when he confronted me, and then he claimed that he didn’t know I have a spritz. He thought I just had sparkling hard teas, and I’m like, ‘Bro, we launched our spritz line a year and a half before this company,'” Cooke said in May 2024.
Meanwhile, Conover argued that he reached out to Cooke to invest, but he was unable to reach a deal with Cooke.
“Craig is deeply disappointed and saddened by Kyle’s abrupt accusations,” Conover’s rep told Page Six last June. “The truth only hurts one person in this instance, and it’s not Craig.”
The feud from last year is resurfacing, because it’s playing out on the current season of “Summer House,” which airs Wednesdays at 9 p.m. ET on Bravo.
