Annemarie Wiley Slams Sutton Over Kyle, Shades Denise

Dr. Jekyll has nothing on Sutton Stracke.

Annemarie Wiley not only compared Sutton to “Jekyll and Hyde,” but she also slammed her for “play[ing] the detective” against Kyle Richards amid her marital woes. The newbie also threw shade at Denise Richards’ “sloppy” cameo, and she claimed she had an “agenda.”

This season on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, Sutton channeled her inner Sherlock on Kyle, seemingly determined to unlock the mystery of her marriage problems with Mauricio Umansky. According to many fans, Sutton raced to her pipe and armchair after Kyle failed to blindly defend her.

“It’s almost like two steps forward, one step back with Sutton,” said Annemarie on Page Six’s Virtual Reali-Tea podcast. “You think you’re kind of getting to a good place and then she kind of brings out the talons and she kind of does a 180 and this whole Jekyll and Hyde situation starts happening.”

Shen then addressed the group questioning Kyle’s fitness and sobriety.

“It was hard because coming into this group of ladies, my first time meeting everybody at the dinner at Kyle’s house and there’s body-shaming, there’s fit-shaming, there’s sober-shaming,” Annemarie explained. “So, I’m seeing my friend who has brought me into this group of ladies be bombarded and attacked about making healthy lifestyle choices.”

Annemarie shared why this was “triggering” for her.

“I started running track when I was five. I played basketball all through college,” she said. “So for me growing up, it was really about having a strong mind, a strong body, being fit and then to see this … obsession with being thin … and then for that to be weaponized against Kyle for really trying to be fit and healthy, that was a lot for me to actually process at the beginning.”

“One thing with Sutton is she really likes to play the detective. She likes to ask the questions of others, but she’s not very forthcoming when it comes to answering questions about her life,” she continued. “And so I think that’s where, especially ‘Esopha-gate’ for us, became a lot bigger than it needed to be.”

Many viewers were playing detective on a separate matter with Denise, who was accused of behaving strangely at Kyle’s weed dinner, with some fans speculating that she pre-gamed with other substances.

“It was a little bit awkward to be around, honestly,” said Annemarie of Denise’s behavior, via Page Six. “And it was a little bit uncomfortable to see it after the fact.”

“Denise had a few other things kind of going on at the dinner perhaps,” she added. “I don’t know.”

But according to Annemarie, Denise also walked in with a motive.

“It was very clear that when Denise came in, she had an agenda. She was there for one reason and one reason only and that was to get something out of Erika [Jayne],” she shared. “What she wanted out of Erika, I feel like is still not actually even clear.”

Though Annemarie didn’t witness Denise’s second confrontation with Erika – who eventually shaded Denise’s OnlyFans’ collaboration with daughter Sami – Annemarie felt Erika “ended that discussion.”

“You don’t want to mess with an activated Erika Jayne and Denise should know that … Denise, I don’t know why she kept trying. Erika gave it to her because she asked for it,” said Annemarie. “And although I don’t love that they were talking about Denise’s daughter, but that’s what the original story was about — and that was long before me. She just kept pushing and Erika didn’t even want to talk about it.”

Did Denise go after Erika to try to reclaim her diamond?

“I mean, if that’s what she’s after, then I feel like that’s a very sloppy way of doing it,” Annemarie answered. “She made a really big impact, but it just wasn’t the classiest of ways to do it.”
