Dorit Kemsley and Bozoma Saint John’s friendship is being called into question.
Kyle Richards and Garcelle Beauvais called Boz out for blindly defending Dorit on the Feb. 18 episode of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. After Dorit made a comment about Sutton Stracke’s drinking during her Fourth of July party, the group began to take sides.
“Sutton, what are you drinking?” Garcelle asked. “Is there alcohol in it?”
When Sutton replied saying it was a watermelon cocktail with vodka, Dorit chimed in, sarcastically saying to Garcelle: “Didn’t you ask Sutton what she’s drinking? And you asked, ‘Is there alcohol in it?’” Dorit continued, suggesting the answer was obvious.
“Dorit, shut up,” Sutton exclaimed. “You’re such a bitch.”
In her confessional, Sutton explained that “Dorit has never apologized for perpetuating a rumor or a myth that I have some sort of drinking problem.”
“She is just being a bitch to be a bitch,” she added before Dorit told her not to “call me a bitch in my own home.”
Sutton suddenly got up and said she was leaving the party, and Kyle and Garcelle followed her to the door. When Boz came in, she immediately came to Dorit’s defense.
“To congregate here at the front, it’s like, Dorit’s hosting a party,” Boz said.
“Stop being Dorit’s spokesperson!” Garcelle shouted back.
Denying Garcelle’s claims, Boz slammed the women for being unable to “behave like civilized people.”
“It looks rude,” she said. “If y’all wanna coddle her, coddle her.”
Kyle shared Garcelle’s frustration, telling cameras: “At this point, this is actually annoying to me. Once again, Boz is team Dorit without knowing any backstory, and she just comes in and automatically defends Dorit without knowing anything. You don’t get to scold us.”
After Sutton left, Garcelle told Erika Girardi that Sutton “didn’t feel welcome” there, going on to note that Dorit’s comment was not necessary.
“You led the charge with, ‘Of course, there’s vodka in her drink,’” Garcelle said.
“But did that equal her calling her bitch in her house?” Boz interrupted. “Somebody walks into my house and calls me a bitch, those are fighting words.”
“I feel like every time you’re telling us what to do about Dorit when you don’t know the whole situation,” Garcelle responded.
Listening silently, Erika said in her confessional that she thought Garcelle might be “threatened by the Boz and Dorit friendship,” pointing out that Garcelle is arguably acting like “Sutton’s spokesperson.”
In an effort to prove her point, Garcelle proceeded to call Boz “one-sided,” bringing up a past comment she made about Kyle not being “welcoming.”
“It’s so funny that you said that because I actually felt the complete opposite,” Kyle told Boz, noting that it “hurt my feelings” to hear. “The times that we have spent together, I actually did feel like we had a great connection.”
“I feel that I’ve had very deep conversations with almost everybody. I haven’t necessarily had that with you,” Boz explained, saying in her confessional: “The vibes aren’t vibing with Kyle. She has not opened up to me about anything that’s going on in her life. There is no warmth. So I don’t really know what to do with that. There’s nothing to do. I don’t have anything to work with.”
Kyle said she thought she was being “singled out” by Boz — who she believes has “a loyalty automatically” to Dorit — because of Kyle and Dorit’s personal issues with one another.
“Even though you said that you don’t have preconceived ideas, your actions say otherwise,” Kyle said of Boz inserting herself into the conflict with Sutton earlier.
She then accused Boz of behaving like “Judge Judy” when she told Kyle to block Dorit’s estranged husband PK after it was revealed he and Kyle were still communicating. When Dorit spoke out to question why Boz can’t have an opinion on the situation, Kyle snapped at her.
“It’s so annoying,” Kyle said. “She can literally say anything and you’re so all over her ass. It’s actually gross now. Stop.”
“I’m having a conversation with her and everything she says, you have to back up,” she goes on to tell Dorit, adding in her confessional: “Dorit just does not know when to not talk. This is between Boz and me. We’re in a good place now. Can you just leave it be? You don’t have to be up for ass 24/7.”
