Though I don’t think we have to wonder any longer what Jesse Solomon would do (he has sung the song enough times to know for sure) fans are still curious: who would Jesse Solomon date? Summer House season 9 is finally answering that burning question during Jesse’s sophomore televised stay in the Hamptons. Jesse entered season 8 of the Bravo series as a single man playing the field, which was pretty admirable considering he had some serious health shit going on. After a pretty charming season and a pretty interesting performance at his first reunion, it’s time for Jesse to do what every Summer House-er before him has done: dive head first into a dangerous showmance. Who is the lucky lady in question? SH newbie Lexi Wood enters a romantic sitch with Jesse about two seconds after entering the house. Is she the woman Jesse hard launched on Amazon Live (a sentence that will surely be studied in the history books)? Here’s everything I uncovered about Jesse Solomon and Lexi Wood’s relationship status.
Are Lexi Wood and Jesse Solomon dating?

If the season 9 premiere is any indication, hell yes, but we kind of already knew that from that clip of Jesse saying it’s his “last day as a single man” in the trailer. I naively assumed this was a bit of a laugh/tongue-in-cheek comment, but the way Jesse is moving early in the season begs to differ. As soon as Lexi and her lipliner arrive, Jesse both simps for her (saying “all” hot girls are from Toronto with a non-Canandian woman in the room is BOLD) and shit talks her (calling a girl ditsy to her face or behind her back is not a compliment).
Last season Ciara called Jesse trash and, without any evidence, the comment seemed harsh. But finding someone’s boundary just to intentionally see how far you can push it is pretty trash dating behavior if you ask me. At least his cringe pursuit of Lexi with R-rated dad jokes seems to be based on mutual chemistry?
FWIW, Lexi (intellectual queen or not) seems to be able to hold her own when she tells Jesse if he’s talking to her, he better not be flirting with anyone else in the season preview. This is why later on in the trailer, Little Miss Lex kinda pops off when she suspects Jesse is flirting with Ciara. Is she setting a boundary or acting too jealous too soon? From the way Ciara and Jesse are low-key touchy-feely so far in the season, I’m kind of on her side.
While Jesse teased his new almost GF anonymously in his interview with Amazon, it definitely could be Lexi, as the timing over the summer lines up. Lexi’s insistence Jesse stay loyal from the jump also would explain why Jesse told Amazon he wasn’t using the title “girlfriend” but he also wasn’t single and ready to mingle anymore. Lexi suspiciously filmed an Amazon Live around the same time as Jesse, too.
Who is Lexi Wood?

Lexi Wood is a “model and influencer who has worked with top brands across the fashion and beauty industry,” according to her website. Even though just about anybody can claim to be an influencer these days, Lexi does have over a milli followers on Instagram, so I’d consider her a true professional at posting sponsored thirst traps. She also has at least two blonde sisters named Tiffany and Cassidy she seems super tight with. If the high-maintenance fashion girlie vibe on Lexi’s page transfers to Lexi’s personality in real life, we are in for a hella entertaining treat as Jesse navigates learning how to make his new queen happy.
