'RHOBH' Season 13: 'Bizarre' Sutton Stracke intimates about 'unhinged' Kyle Richards' 'perfect' personal life
BEVERLY HILLS, CALIFORNIA: On 'The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills', Kyle Richards and Sutton Stracke are at war with one another once again. Sutton tries to hint at something about Kyle's 'perfect' personal life in the upcoming episode of the Bravo show.
In the first-look preview for 'RHOBH' Season 13 Episode 5, Kyle and Sutton continue their conversation about the events in Las Vegas at Sutton's table, where they left off in Episode 4. Sutton is urging Kyle to "name 'em," because Kyle recently stated that she thinks Sutton has "a habit of losing [her] sh-t in ridiculous circumstances."
Finally, Kyle agrees, recalling the events in Lake Tahoe during 'RHOBH' Season 11 as well as Sutton's now-famous remark about 'ugly leather pants'.
"You did not seem okay in Vegas, and you don't seem okay now, frankly."
"Everyone says Sutton's kooky," she confesses in an interview. "But this isn't kooky. This is just flat-out bizarre."
Sutton, on the other hand, is sure that something is wrong with Kyle. "What is going on in your life, Kyle?" she asks in her own confessional. "Because you never talk about you. Your life is perfect. You live in a fortress on top of of a very, very high pedestal."
But, when she returns to Kyle, she adds she's "happy to answer any of [Sutton]'s questions."
Kyle replies, "Bring it on, babe," to which Sutton answers, "I'm not bringing it on."
Kyle Richards wants to 'dial it back' with 'RHOBH' costar Sutton Stracke
Kyle first sought space during a pre-BravoCon interview on Teddi Mellencamp and Tamra Judge's 'Two Ts in a Pod' podcast, then she confirmed her request with US Weekly. "I needed space from Sutton. Well, she was a lot," Kyle explained.
"We were starting out when I said that. It had just been a lot of situations with her back-to-back to [where] I was like, ‘Whoa, dial it back. I am going to need to step away for a minute because I didn’t see us getting anywhere.’ And I had enough on my plate at the time."
Kyle and Sutton have been good friends since their time on 'RHOBH'. Sutton even rented one of Kyle's houses while she was refurbishing her own.
Sutton Stracke baffled why Kyle Richards needs space from 'RHOBH' costar
Kyle has stated that she requires space away from her 'RHOBH' co-star Sutton, who was taken aback by the comments.
"OK. Space away. I mean, I didn’t even know she said that," Sutton told US Weekly on November 4 at BravoCon. "She probably needs space from a lot of people. I don’t know what I did."
While their co-star Garcelle Beauvais was unaware that Kyle needed a break from Sutton, she believes the split has already begun. "I think she has been taking some space from you and vice versa. Not intentionally," she said.
"What did I do?" Sutton asked.

While it is unknown when Kyle recognized she wanted to distance herself from their connection, some of their co-stars understood why.
"I agree with Kyle," Erika Jayne joked to US Weekly. "I understand where she’s coming from and I agree. I’ve needed a break for a couple years."
Dorit Kemsley also understands Kyle's situation. "That happens in this group at times. You know, Sutton and I [are] OK," Dorit told Us Weekly on the red carpet at BravoCon.
"We’ve never really had a big, big issue. But, I always say it’s, like, death by a thousand paper cuts. Sutton has a way of kind of rubbing people the wrong way at times. And then, you know, you get past it. But we’re OK," She added.
'The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' Season 13 airs on Thursdays on Bravo at 8 pm ET
