Sutton Stracke revealed which of her Real Housewives of Beverly Hills co-stars “turns it on” the most and reacted to being accused of causing the “most drama” on the show during an interview on Wednesday.
After reacting to Erika Jayne, 52, putting her on the spot during last week’s episode of RHOBH and insisting she was apologetic for her behavior at the Magic Mike show in Las Vegas, Sutton, 52, said that while each and every cast member is a “bigger version” of themselves on the Bravo series, one person brings it a little more than the others.
“We all turn it on for the camera, so you kind of become a bigger version of yourself,” Sutton admitted on Us Weekly‘s Reality Show Secrets. “[But] I think Erika [Jayne] might bring it out the most because she’s kind of a quiet person.”
“If you ask my castmates who causes the most drama, they would say me,” she continued. “But I don’t think that’s true and I don’t think it’s fair. I think we all cause the most drama.”
After defending her potentially drama-causing behavior, Sutton denied that drinking has anything to do with the issues she’s had with her castmates.
“Sometimes I’m just drinking hot water with lemon and honey,” she explained. “Sometimes I’ll drink one drink and it might look like I’m drinking that drink all night … because I’m a sipper.”
After Sutton and Erika butted heads on a number of occasions throughout production on RHOBH season 13, especially after Sutton stormed out of the Magic Mike show, claiming she was “offended” and that the show wasn’t her “brand,” Erika said at BravoCon that she “needed a break” from Sutton “for a couple of years.”
Erika also poked fun at Sutton’s sex life, saying she’s likely “the worst lay ever.”
As for the moment Sutton wished fans had seen on RHOBH, she said it was a party she hosted during season 12.
“It was so pretty and it was for my cashmere line,” Sutton revealed. “Susan Rockefeller was there, my daughter was there, and it was such a pretty party and they didn’t air any of it. It was very sad.”
During another interview, Sutton weighed in on the way in which Erika put her on the spot with a Magic Mike dancer after she left in the middle of his show.
“Always, on this show, you have to let it just run its course and breeze through it because it’s always going to be OK,” Sutton explained to Us Weekly earlier this month. “There’s no malintent with me, and that’s the truth. I show up, put on my microphone, and sometimes I say things that I shouldn’t, and I always run into trouble. I always step into things.”
Following Sutton’s Magic Mike meltdown, Erika confronted her with one of the performers in an elevator.
“This is your chance to apologize to my friend who you said was over the top and the show was sh*tty,” Erika said to Sutton.
“I didn’t say the show was sh*tty at all. Don’t put words in my mouth. I didn’t say the show was sh*ty at all. I said the dancers were amazing,” Sutton fired back, noting it was “just the one spread eagle” that made her feel uncomfortable.
“I know I missed the good part, but I’m sorry,” she added.
After later claiming Erika “purposefully” embarrassed her, Sutton insisted she was apologetic for leaving the show midway through.
“I didn’t mean to ruin anybody’s time, and I didn’t mean to squash the fun,” she told Us Weekly. “I think we see going forward in Vegas that we do have more fun. I am a fun girl, I like to have fun … I just reacted in the wrong way — or I overreacted — and I was apologetic.”
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills season 13 airs on Wednesdays at 8/7c on Bravo.
