Ben Waddell is leaving the Bravo series "Summer House" and will not return for Season 11 [1].
Waddell's departure follows a brief tenure on the reality show, which is filmed at a shared house in the Hamptons, New York [1, 3]. His exit marks a quick turnaround for a cast member who joined the ensemble during Season 10 [3].
Reports on the departure surfaced on June 29, 2026 [2]. According to these reports, Waddell and his girlfriend, Sabrina Belle, are both exiting the series [1, 2].
Waddell appeared for only one season [1]. While the show often features rotating casts and shifting dynamics among the residents of the Hamptons house, the departure of a new addition after a single season is a notable development for the production [3].
Bravo has not provided a specific reason for the exit of Waddell and Belle. The series continues to document the social and romantic lives of its cast members in New York during the summer months [1, 3].

The departure of Ben Waddell and Sabrina Belle after a single season suggests a lack of long-term casting fit or a personal decision to exit the public eye. In the context of ensemble reality television, the rapid turnover of new cast members often reflects the producers' efforts to refresh the show's chemistry or the challenges cast members face when integrating into established group dynamics.
