Has Kyle Richards met her match in Sutton Stracke?
By Lacey Womack
Another episode of RHOBH, another blowout fight between original cast member Kyle Richards and Sutton Stracke, who first appeared as a friend of the show for one season before being upgraded to a main cast member in season 11.
Neither of these Housewives stars are known to hold back when it comes to getting into an argument on the show and this fight was no exception, but it has some fans calling Kyle Richards out for her hypocrisy in how she responded to Sutton firing back at her.
Even though Kyle Richards insists that all is well with her marriage to Mauricio Umansky and that they’re working things out, despite the fact that the two of them announced their separation, there’s a lot of speculation on whether or not that’s true. That speculation seems to include the RHOBH cast because Sutton brings it up and tries to imply that maybe Kyle is hiding something.
Kyle Richards and Sutton Stracke both get personal
In a previous episode, had both referenced a rumor that Mauricio cheated on Kyle and forced the RHOBH veteran to defend that the ring she was wearing was one she bought herself, not a “make-up band” bought by Mauricio to buy Kyle’s forgiveness. After being hurt by these rumors that she was cheated on, Kyle lashed out in the next episode.
Kyle Richards accused Sutton Stracke of having an eating disorder and questioned her drinking habits in response to Sutton questioning her about her marriage. Sutton questioned why Kyle went to such a personal place during the argument and pointed out that she doesn’t ask her co-star about her past with alcohol and ends the argument by bringing up Kyle’s family with, “You’ve already lost two sisters, do you want to lose a third?”
Fans call out Kyle Richards’ hypocrisy after Sutton Stracke fight
The fight didn’t end there, but it was more than enough for a lot of fans to have made up their minds about whose side they were on. For many fans, the fact that Kyle was upset about being questioned about her marriage and bothered by Sutton’s questioning was a little bit of hypocrisy on her part.
To many fans, Kyle has spent over a dozen seasons poking and prodding at other people’s personal lives and now that the same is happening to her, she’s upset about the treatment she’s given others in the past. While most fans agree that no one is entitled to details about anyone’s personal lives, Sutton Stracke is just returning the energy Kyle Richards brings to the show.
