Will Lexi Wood Return for ‘Summer House' Season 10? She Reveals Her Future on the Bravo Show
Lexi Wood made a bold entrance onSummer House and she quickly dominated season 9 amid her tumultuous relationship with costar Jesse Solomon. Following part 2 of the Summer House season 9 reunion, Lexi revealed if she will return to the Bravo show for season 10.
Lexi took to her Instagram Stories on June 6, 2025, to confirm that she will not return for season 10 of Summer House.
"Well … that wasn't the summer I signed up for but it definitely taught me a lot," she wrote in a black and white text post. "I stood up for women and for what's right, even when it wasn't easy and I'd do that again in a heartbeat. I'm leaving Summer House with no regrets (well … maybe one.)"
She continued, "I'm proud of the way I handled myself, proud of what I walked away from and even prouder of what I'm walking toward. Big things are coming! Stay tuned!"
Lexi and Jesse were one of the most talked about couples on season 9 of Summer House. While they had undeniable chemistry, the couple quickly faced issues when it came to trust. Not only had Jesse been caught flirting with costar Ciara Miller, but he also infamously had his toe sucked by another woman.
Meanwhile, Jesse accused Lexi of escalating their romance too quickly and claimed she asked him to unfollow other women on Instagram.
The pair tried to work through their issues, though ultimately split during episode 14 of season 9.
"I think he lied so [much] to so many people, all over the place, on and off camera," Lexi said of their split while talking to Bravo's The Daily Dish in April 2025. "He created just such a mess and such a huge confusion for everyone, I think, and he completely manipulated relationships to form against each other which I think is awful."
Lexi added that watching their relationship play out on the show was a difficult experience. "I think it's funny because a lot of people don't have the opportunity to see what the person that you're dating is doing behind your back or saying behind your back," she said. "Seeing everything [that] has been said behind my back by the person I trusted the most, I think that's been the most hurtful."
Bravo has not officially announced that Summer House is coming back for season 10, though stars of the show have confirmed that casting is already underway. While the new cast has not yet been announced, fans won't see longtime star Paige DeSorbo return to the reality show.
"I have a little life update for you: I've made the decision not to return to Summer House," Paige wrote via her Instagram Stories on June 5, 2025. "Being a part of this show has been one of the most rewarding chapters of my life - the friendships, the drama, the giggles, all unforgettable."
The "Giggly Squad" podcast host continued, "You've seen me grow up over these last seven summers. I'll always be beyond grateful for the memories, the community, and the opportunities this wild ride has brought me. But like all good things (and some bad decisions), it's time for this chapter to close."

Man Reveals One Gen Z Shopping Habit Millennials Just Can't Cope With
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. In a viral TikTok post that has clocked more than 2.5 million views, Davide De Pierro, a 37-year-old from New Jersey, struck a generational nerve with a simple observation: younger people are far too comfortable making major purchases on their smartphones. "I just had a friend buy his plane ticket on his phone," De Pierro, who is known as @ddp8792 on TikTok, told viewers in the post from May 22. "That's a laptop purchase. "Someone back me up," he added. De Pierro told Newsweek about the viral moment and the generational divide it stems from, which many viewers have been poking fun at in the comments. "I did not create the term 'laptop purchase,' but I've seen it used … I've also seen other posts online about this," he said. The distinction between phone and laptop usage may seem like a minor point, but it is one that reveals how differently millennials and Gen Zers navigate the digital world. Millennials—defined as those born between 1981 and 1996—tend to reserve smartphones for quick tasks: scrolling through Instagram, messaging, or maybe buying a coffee. Booking an international flight? As the TikTok video jokingly summed up: that's a "laptop thing." For most Gen Zers, born between 1997 and 2012, there is no such boundary. They are just as likely to research, book, and pay for a vacation on a smartphone as they are to order lunch. This shift is part of a broader trend that has been described as the divide between the "big internet" and the "little internet." Older millennials are typically more comfortable on traditional web platforms—laptops, long-form blogs, and detailed searches—while Gen Z thrives on the streamlined, mobile-first experience of apps such as TikTok. Though De Pierro's post may not be the first that pokes fun at this generational culture clash, the traction it gained online has continued to elevate the conversation. The candid TikTok video prompted waves of discussion and humorous commentary among users who saw it as emblematic of the wider divide between millennials and Gen Z when it comes to digital behavior. "I agree," one viewer said. "The laptop purchase is a millennial thing." "As a millennial, I agree 100 percent," another added. "The anxiety I would get using phone. "This is Gen Z activities," they said. From left: Davide De Pierro speaks to his TikTok audience about "laptop purchases"; and a stock image of a traveler buying airline tickets on an Apple laptop.

One comment shared a different opinion: "I do everything from my phone. I bought a house on my phone." "I support this 100 percent big purchase=big screens, multiple tabs and multiple hours/days of research," another added. "That's for the big internet," a viewer posted. "Also a serious email can't be written from a phone," another commented. De Pierro, who works as a lawyer and previously lived in Italy for eight years, said that the idea of TikTok stardom was far from his mind until recently. "I am what my ex-girlfriend calls 'chronically offline,' so it is unlike me to have a TikTok, but she encouraged me to try one," he said. "I started really posting at the end of March 2025. "I owe this to her, for encouraging me and showing me I can do this," he added. Despite the pair breaking up afterwards, De Pierro's TikTok presence has grown rapidly over the past few months to more than 600,000 followers. He is now writing a book and hopes his unexpected platform will help him promote it once it is ready. "Until then, I'll keep trying to make relatable life scenarios funny for people," De Pierro said.

Korean Jelly Nails Are The Epitome Of Summer - Here Are 9 Of The Best Designs
Whether it's glazed skin or dewy blush, beauty's fascination with glowy finishes knows no bounds. The latest nail trend, Korean Jelly Nails, is yet further proof of this. Defined by a jewel-like, light-reflecting aesthetic and soon to supersede their glossy counterparts (think soap nails and the infamous donut-adjacent sheen), Korean Jelly Nails are the shiniest of manicures taking over right now. It's pretty easy to see their appeal for the summer months. Not only does the luminescent finish catch the light, but they offer a softer middle ground between bold 3-D nail art and minimalist soap nails. 'Korean Jelly Nails have become a major trend, encapsulating a juicy, extra-shiny aesthetic that's both playful and sophisticated,' agrees Giorgia Cappella, head of education and spa at The GelBottle. FIND OUT MORE ON ELLE COLLECTIVE First popularised in the land of K-beauty, the term 'Korean Jelly Nails' has since become all-encompassing. 'The term encompasses various Korean-inspired nail techniques and trends, such as glass nails, cat-eye nails, lip gloss nails, and syrup nails. These looks are achieved through intricate layering, sheer hues, and textures that create depth and dimension,' shares Cappella. 'Jelly Nails are a trend that feel really referential of the sheer syrup aesthetics that are so popular in Korea and Japan at the moment,' agrees Alex (known as @alexdidyournails on Instagram), a Japanese and Korean Gel Nail Artist. 'They're incredibly versatile in how they can be adapted to each client, but they're typically characterised by using semi-transparent colours that give the nails a dewy tint.' It's a manicure that works for both minimalists and maximalists. 'You can dial the sheerness up or down depending on what clients are comfortable with, but often the nail's natural features will be slightly visible, hence the glassy 'jelly' reference,' adds Alex. As to why they are becoming popular, they play on the beauty world's fascination with dewy textures, and have been gaining traction thanks to the likes of Hailey Bieber and Rihanna. 'We're seeing a lot of jelly French tips right now. This can be created using a sheer nude or pink base like The GelBottle's Kiss BIAB or Cloud BIAB with bold, translucent tips in hot pink, blue, or orange,' shares Cappella. Jelly nail stacking is another trend taking shape. 'This is when each nail is painted in a different jelly shade and is often paired with soft gradient fades or pastel neon,' she adds. Chrome, ombré and cat-eye are also starting to trickle in. 'The jelly nails can be adorned further by adding chrome or cat-eye overlays to play with depth and dimension, and adding a 3-D or textured element creates a beautiful nuance to the look,' shares Alex. 'The semi-sheer pigment to the gels used also allow them to be ombréd and marbled with ease, so beautiful coloured gradients can be achieved.' 'Jelly nails commonly see a glass colour mixed into a sheer BIAB base to create a custom shade or custom glass shades created by mixing clear bases with chosen hues,' shares Cappella. 'Korean Jelly Nails are the client's chosen finish and therefore are created through the gel polish colour applied over the chosen base.' If you are heading to your favourite nail tech, it's important to take photo references as the term can point to many different manicures. 'Asking your nail artist for syrup nails will be a good starting point, as this is referential of the syrup gel polishes that are integral to achieving this aesthetic,' shares Alex. Searching for ways to recreate the jelly shine via polish? 'Look for sheer or translucent polishes – these give that same juicy, tinted effect without needing a gel kit, You can layer a few thin coats of your chosen shade to build up the colour gradually, finishing with a super-glossy top coat to get that signature shine,' adds Cappella, warning that may not be able to achieve the same depth or dimension as gel. A manicure that says 'summer heatwave', this hot candy pink was created using Glass pink, Stunning Beam Powder and Crazy Top thick by @alexdidyournails. Whether it's teeny hearts or soft graphic lines, small embellishments are a sure-fire way to upgrade your jelly manicure. Thought typically synonymous with winter, this soft frosted detail and colour palette works a charm come summer too and plays on the 'stacking' colour trend. Moving straight onto our summer manicure mood board, these teeny stars are subtle yet pack a statement thanks to the jelly, 3-d finish and luminescent swirls. Polka dots have been making waves on the runway this season, and have fast filtered into nail art trends. Opt for all over polka dots or try juxtaposing contrasting dots on different fingers. Sitting somewhere between the viral milk trend and the glazed-donut manicure, this juicier, and shinier iteration changes colour as it catches the sun, making it a perfect pairing for the imminent heatwave. Juicy, playful and bringing next-level shine, these summer gradients created by Kkoht Nails epitomise summer holidays. The hype and fascination around glass nails (the manicure equivalent of the popular glass skin trend) shows no signs of slowing down. This glass manicure 2.0 combines both the dewy glass effect and 3-D jelly for maximum shine. Cool down in soaring temps with this ice-inspired manicure – ask your nail tech for a cat-eye effect and go for cool tones of fresh blue.
