What happens in Vegas doesn’t always stay in Vegas — especially if it involves BravoCon.
After Below Deck alum Kate Chastain and The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City star Heather Gay claimed that The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills cast wasn’t so friendly at the annual fan convention, Sutton Stracke decided to respond.
“I saw Kate briefly going, but for Heather Gay, I didn’t see her,” Sutton, 54, exclusively shared with Us Weekly while celebrating season 15 of Bravo’s hit reality show. “I had sent her, like, a text or message about a month ago. And then I’m friends with Meredith [Marks] on Salt Lake and Mary [Cosby] and Angie [Katsanevas] and I went out for dinner the last night of BravoCon. So I don’t know, I’m not quite sure what they’re referring to.”
For those looking for receipts, Sutton did in fact post photos from Angie’s birthday gathering at Petite Boheme in Las Vegas on November 17.
“Sutton, it was so special to celebrate my birthday with you and this amazing group,” Angie, 52, wrote in the comments section. “I’m so happy I was able to get to know you more. Thank you for your kindness❤️❤️❤️.”
On December 7, Heather, 51, and Kate, 42, first raised eyebrows when they appeared on Peacock’s Reality Hot Seat. Both Bravo stars claimed that The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills cast was the coldest during BravoCon weekend.
Heather also claimed, “There is an elitism there that is hard to break through.”
After Sutton tried to brush off the comments, the creator of Sutton Brands reacted to some news closer to her zip code of 90210.
Season 15 of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills looks and feels a bit different for Sutton after her longtime ally Garcelle Beauvais exited the show.
The pair didn’t see eye-to-eye at the season 14 reunion taping, with Garcelle, 59, walking off set before participating in a group photo. She also unfollowed her costar.
Although their friendship has seemingly come to an end, Sutton was pleasantly surprised to hear on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen that Garcelle would consider coming back if Erika Jayne was out of the picture.
“I thought that was so interesting for her to say, because I’m like, shouldn’t it be me that you don’t want on the show?” she joked to Us. “But I don’t know.”
When asked about photos that showed Garcelle hanging out with her ex-assistant Avi Gabay, Sutton tried to play it cool.
“I didn’t even see it when it came out. Jennifer Tilly showed me,” Sutton explained to Us. “So, you know, that’s their business. If they want to be friends and go to the premiere and go to parties together, then, you know, good. Have at it.”
While fans may not have all the answers to what led to Garcelle and Sutton’s friendship breakup, one party doesn’t appear to have regrets about how the last reunion played out.
“I had a lot on my plate going into that reunion, on my own plate,” Sutton shared, “and I had to put my oxygen mask on first.”
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills airs on Bravo Thursdays at 8 p.m. ET. Episodes will be available to stream the next day on Peacock.
