The drama has been coming aplenty on Season 2 of Summer House: Martha's Vineyard. The season is already four episodes in, and so much has happened for the crew in a short time. A lot of the issues are ones carried over from Season 1. Jasmine Ellis Cooper's marriage to Silas Cooper was one major source of conflict and that's just one example. As with most shows, Season 1 didn't have a reunion, but now that it's airing, the series deserves a reunion at the end of Season 2.
The original Summer House series and Winter House have reunion specials when their seasons end. Summer House didn't begin doing reunions until Season 2, while Winter House began during Season 3. The shows are very popular and Summer House: Martha's Vineyard is gaining ground in its viewership.
Amid such a climactic season, the cast and fans agree that a reunion needs to happen. Bravo apparently got the message.
Has Bravo said anything yet about a 'Summer House: Martha's Vineyard' reunion?
In April 2024, after Summer House: MV stars Jordan Emanuel, Summer Marie Thomas, and Preston Mitchum, expressed their desires for a Season 2 reunion, the cast and fans of the show finally got the news they’ve been waiting for..
On Monday, April 22, Andy Cohen confirmed via X, formerly Twitter, that there will be a Summer House: Martha’s Vineyard Season 2 reunion. In true Andy fashion, the Watch What Happens Live host asked Bravo watchers to tweet him their best questions for the cast that may or may not get read during the sit-down
“My team is prepping for the SUMMER HOUSE: MARTHA'S VINEYARD reunion! Tweet me all of your questions for AMIR, ALEX, NICK, JASMINE, SUMMER, JORDAN, PRESTON, BRIA, NOELLE & SHANICE, and let me know where you're from in the question!”
Underneath Andy’s call to action were many questions fans had for the cast, even Bria Fleming’s beloved dog, Milo. Several users also thanked Andy and Bravo for not skipping a reunion this year as Summer House: MV continues to heat up in Season 2.
'Summer House: Martha's Vineyard' has a rich history in addition to drama.
The first season of Summer House: Martha's Vineyard introduced viewers to a group of Black American friends enjoying their own summer house located in Martha's Vineyard. The location has a historical import, specifically to Black History, which makes the series significance stand out among Bravo's other offerings. Martha's Vineyard was once one of the only few beaches and locales for Black people seeking respite in the 1950s. The beauty of the series is that this history is embraced while still providing Bravo drama.
Reunions have become a common Bravo practice.
Reunions for Bravo shows haven't always been the norm. The early aughts of The Real Housewives era didn't have reunions, and when they began, they were only one episode. However, reunions have become more commonplace. In fact, for most Bravo fans, the reunions are the highlight of the season. They provide an opportunity for the best bits of drama to be addressed, rehashed, and depending on the situation, find a resolution — good, bad, or otherwise.
