After sharing their friendship dynamic with the world, Sutton Stracke confirmed that she and Garcelle Beauvais are no longer friends. The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills cast member revealed during the premiere of RHOBH Season 15 that she hasn’t talked to her former BFF since Garcelle announced her exit from RHOBH and walked off the RHOBH Season 14 reunion, and she has some feelings about this.
Sutton spoke with Us Weekly at BravoCon 2025, where she revealed that Garcelle was the one who decided to end their friendship. “I have deep friendships that are 50 years old, so I’ve never lost a friend like this,” she explained. “It’s unusual for me.”
“It was a deep friendship,” she added. “I did throw a baby shower for her son. I did call her. I did text her a lot.”
These comments are in addition to the statements that Sutton made about their friendship during RHOBH Season 15, Episode 1. “That was very rough,” Sutton told RHOBH cast members, Bozoma Saint John, Kyle Richards, Erika Jayne, and Dorit Kemsley.
“I texted again and again and again and again,” she added in a confessional. “She did not text back.”
