In the teaser, Miller doesn’t hold back when talking to Batula, saying she’s been her “champion” for six years as she’s struggled in her marriage with Kyle Cooke.
“I couldn’t fathom that I would be sitting here p-ssed that you’re f–king my ex,” she said. “He wants to embarrass me. He wants to get his last little words in. And I hope it works, because he’s with you to spite me.”
Elsewhere during her conversation with PEOPLE, Miller said that the reunion will give viewers “some clarity” regarding Wilson and Batula. “I think it was very cathartic. It was one of those situations that was very unfortunate, but I’m so excited to move on from this, and you can’t take everyone with you.”

He added, “And here we are again. So, I don’t have a lot of grace for some of it.”
