Sutton Stracke was featured on Thursday’s episode of Watch What Happens Live, where she addressed the end of her relationships with Garcelle Beauvais and Avi Gabay.
While also reacting to her ex-husband, Christian Stracke, wanting an annulment, offering an update on her home robbery and the safety concerns she had because of it, and admitting she wasn’t impressed by newbie Amanda Frances, 40, the 54-year-old Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star shared her thoughts on claims of a possible reconcilation between Kyle Richards, 56, and Mauricio Umansky, 55, and more.
“I don’t have any regrets. I look back on my friendship with Garcelle so fondly, and I had just really, really great memories with her,” Sutton said on the January 8 episode of WWHL. “[But] I wish that I had a better ending, like a face-to-face. It kind of didn’t end. It fizzled. She ended it for sure. I regret that part.”
As for Avi, she continued, “We were friends, then he was an employee, and so when we parted ways, when I let him go, that’s a professional thing, and I had to keep it professional, and that’s just how it went.”
After noting that she did not want to reach out to either, Sutton was asked if Christian wanted an annulment because he was dating and wanted to wed in the Catholic church, in which divorce is frowned upon.
“I don’t know if that is the exact reason. He is dating someone. They’re both Catholic. If they wanted to get married, they would want to get married in the Catholic church, [and] they would need an annulment to do that, so maybe,” she reasoned. “[But] that’s not what he told me the reason was. He said that it would make us better friends.”
While host Andy Cohen, 57, didn’t seem convinced by Christian’s suggestion, Sutton insisted that he was correct in his desire.
“We are better friends. It’s weird. Because it hurt,” she stated.
Regarding whether Christian “hated” her being on the show, Sutton suspected he was too busy to care.
“He’s a busy man. He’s in charge of a big multi-trillion-dollar thing. So I don’t know if he watches,” she noted.
Moving on to her robbery, Sutton confirmed the thieves hadn’t been caught as she revealed that a lot was taken, much of which was sentimental.
“It’s just stuff. [But] some was very sentimental to me, that meant a lot,” she shared. “You have to get through the mental part of it all and just know that you’re going to be safe, and that’s the most important part, to make my house safe, to make me feel safe, but it was not fun at all.”
Looking back at Thursday’s episode of RHOBH, Sutton was questioned about why she was so defensive with Jennifer Tilly, 67, as they discussed working things out with Dorit Kemsley, 49, and asked about Jennifer saying she unintentionally hurts people when she’s anxious.
“I don’t think I was very hurtful to her,” Sutton stated. “At that moment, I was very serious, and I was trying to be serious, and Jennifer and I have a very jokey, silly [relationship], and I think she wasn’t used to me being [serious]. And so when I kind of hit the brakes, I hit them too hard, I think.”
As for her first impression of Amanda, Sutton said, “She didn’t say much at first,” before describing her as “very effusive” and admitting she wasn’t impressed.
“We’re not impressed with Louis Vuitton … we’re not impressed that you’re young either,” she declared.
Later, on the WWHL After Show, Sutton looked back on Kyle opening up to Erika Jayne, 54, about her post-separation dating life and responded to rumors of a potential reconciliation between her and Mauricio.
“It was really nice to see Kyle kind of settle in and be able to have a quiet moment and feel good about talking about her relationship that she had after Mauricio. I think she struggled with that, and I was happy for her; it was hard on her. I’m just learning about all of these [rumors]. They love each other. They’re family, so I don’t know. I haven’t talked to Kyle since New Year’s, so I don’t know exactly what’s going on,” she revealed.
“[Maybe it was] taken out of context,” she added.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills season 15 airs Thursdays at 8/7c on Bravo.
