Are Sutton Stracke and Steve still together? 'RHOBH' fans 'creeped out' as Bravo Housewife scores second date with Steve
BEVERLY HILLS, CALIFORNIA: In the February 14 episode of 'The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' Sutton Stracke ultimately embarks on a second date with Steve. However, many viewers sensed a "paid actor vibe" from her date, leaving them puzzled about their current status, especially since Sutton had initially planned to spend Valentine's Day alone. Sutton has thrived this year. After a season of engaging in the most daring act known to man—dating on television—Sutton has finally secured a second date.
Meeting her date Steve at a pub, they resumed their uneasy conversation and palpable chemistry. Sutton took out a bottle of grapefruit juice from her purse for her cup of vodka, which only added to the drunken allegations, but Steve didn't seem to mind. “You’re like Burger King,” he giggles. “Have it your way.”
On X, fans joked, "This actor who they got to go on a date with Sutton is the pits. The dumb Celine purse joke..." One user asked, "How many more of these "Sutton goes on a date with a gay man pretending to be a potential suitor" episodes do we have to endure?"

Steve is the type of clumsy, untrained figure that has practically disappeared from reality TV in this ever-curated era. Perhaps Sutton's matchmaker, Allesandra, truly weeded out the fame-hungry men, or maybe Steve's desire for the spotlight is overshadowed by his clumsiness. In any case, the date is charming, and the two may have a future together. They probably won't, but maybe! During the group's get-together at Annemarie Wiley's Mother's Day celebration, Sutton revealed the two were yet to kiss.
Sutton Stracke on her dating life and Valentine’s Day plans
Before the 'RHOBH' Season 13 reunion, Sutton talked candidly about her recent romantic experiences in a quick interview with BravoTV.com. "I am still single and just working," she declared. Later, on February 7, Sutton revealed that she is using dating apps and was no longer working with the matchmaker during an appearance on 'Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen'.
When asked if she had any plans for Valentine's Day, Sutton told BravoTV.com that she "hate[s]" the occasion and that she had never been a fan. To make things worse, her friend's schedule on February 14 meant she had no one to hang out with. “So, no. I have no plans for Valentine’s unless anybody is interested,” she described.
'RHOBH's Sutton Stracke caught with Sanjit Das on a 'date'

Sanjit was the charming man whom Sutton went on a date with in Season 12 of 'RHOBH', as fans may recall. There was a conversation about an itching foot and a kitty sweater, but there was no real love connection. However, the boutique owner and the lawyer have remained close, and she recently gave an update on their time spent together.
Sutton posted a picture of herself and Sanjit sitting at a sports bar on Instagram on December 2. The pals took a selfie while college football aired on the TV above them. She continued that she was on her "umpteenth date" with the "sweet" Sanjit.
