Opinion: If Brian and Alex tried to kiss me on Winter House Id be reaching for Kory, too Fri

May 2024 · 4 minute read

Summer House: Martha’s Vineyard star Jordan Emanuel has been called out for crying over her co-star Kory Keefer. The two are appearing on Winter House season 3 together and fans are going in on Jordan because, apparently, it was crystal clear that Kory had a girlfriend-type situation going on. Some viewers have said they don’t understand why Jordan wasn’t more interested in the season’s single guys Brian Benni and Alex Propson. I hate to say it but, I’m totally disagreeing with Winter House fans over this.

First things first, Jordan is a total catch – she describes herself as being a combination of “Rihanna and Stevie Knicks” in episode 1. She definitely shouldn’t be crying over any man. But, as a woman pretty close in age to Winter House‘s Jordan, I can totally get why she’d be in tears over the drama with Kory and Malia White.

Winter House welcomes Brian Benni and Alex Propson

Winter House kicks off this October with returning cast members including Kyle Cooke and Kory Keefer.

Kory is giving off a happy-go-lucky vibe and he’s off the market this season. One key thing to note is that Kory isn’t saying that he’s one hundred percent in a relationship with his girlfriend, though.

The levels of ‘in a relationship’ vary from Kyle and Amanda Batula being married, Kory being “kinda, sorta” in a relationship, and Brian, Alex, Tom Schwartz, and co being single and ready to mingle.

Brian is single and tries to kiss Jordan early on in Winter House. Cue example of why Brian may be single (sorry not sorry):

The Family Karma star says at BravoCon 2023 that he’s “boyfriend material,” holding out his t-shirt in an attempt to hit on Shahs of Sunset star Golnesa ‘GG’ Gharachedaghi.

Alex Propson from Below Deck is also single on Winter House and he also attempts to kiss Jordan on Day One.

With the two single guys throwing themselves Jordan’s way, it’s no wonder that her head was turned elsewhere.

The poor girl joked that she “needs a chiropractor after dodging these bullets.”

I’d cry over the Kory and Malia sitch

After the single guys’ behavior pretty much put Jordan off altogether, she shows an interest in Kory.

With Kory’s confusing answers regarding his relationship and what appears to be a shed-load of alcohol involved in staying at Winter House, it’s absolutely no wonder that Jordan would end up in tears over him.

It’s totally normal to think there could be some kind of spark with someone you’ve met on a two-week vacay of fun in the snow.

It all goes left when Jordan thinks she sees her friend, Malia, kiss Kory in the kitchen.

Malia later cleared up that she was “spitting a drink in his mouth,” rather than kissing.

But, I can see why Jordan would be upset over Malia and Kory looking close if she was getting feelings for him. Surely, that’s only human.

Everyone wants what they can’t have

Speaking on the Bravo show, Danielle says that she’s open to “getting reckless” on vacation, and Jordan explains she’s open to a “vacay bae” – she just didn’t think she’d be bombarded on day one by two guys.

Obviously, Jordan set her sights on Kory. And even Katie Flood admitted that her own type is someone who’s “emotionally unavailable.”

Kory was giving off “unavailable” vibes but also not confirming his relationship status which leaves a big old gap for a girl to end up crying over him.

Speaking at BravoCon 2023, Kory tells ExtraTV that he was a “dumb boy” for “flirting” and adds that he doesn’t want fans to “hate him.”

He said: “I’m not well with my words and emotions.”

To me, this just screams that he can’t deny he was flirting with the ladies in Winter House (even if he and his girlfriend were going through a “weird time”) so all the more reason for Jordan to have caught feelings.

Kory’s basically confirming he didn’t act in the best way. Not only was Jordan probably confused by his single-ness, but her gal pal in the house, Malia, appearing to get close to him after she said she liked him was never going to go down well, either.
