West Wilson, star of Bravo's hit show "Summer House"

Meet local Missourian West Wilson, a reality TV sensation on Bravo's Summer House talking about his roots, his TV house, KC sports, and more.

West Wilson hails from Columbia, Missouri where he grew up alongside his younger brother, Henry, under their parents, Elizabeth, an OB-GYN, and Bruce, a former world history teacher turned cattle rancher. 

After playing college football as a Safety at Montana State, West successfully transitioned into the world of entertainment. Currently an on-air host and writer at Complex, West's journey into the limelight began after a serendipitous meeting with Lindsay Hubbard, who recommended him to join the cast of Bravo's "Summer House." Now in his second year of filming, West brings his vibrant personality and unique experiences to the show, adding an exciting dynamic to the house. 

West currently resides in the bustling neighborhood of Hell’s Kitchen in New York City. Despite the fast-paced urban lifestyle, he finds comfort in frequent visits to the local 5 Brothers bodega, a spot that feels like a home away from home.

In addition to his media career, West has made memorable moments in sports. One notable highlight was hitting an inside-the-park home run against Hall of Famer Pedro Martinez at Globe Life Field in Dallas during the MLB Celebrity All-Star game.

West Wilson continues to make his mark both on and off the screen, captivating audiences with his charisma and multifaceted talents.
