Sutton Stracke was brought to tears during The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills season 12 cast trip to Aspen, and fans think the show is impacting her mental health. Sutton was the main target on Wednesday night’s episode, which showed the ladies having an open discussion during their first night in Aspen. Sutton is known to bark back when quarreling with one housewife, but she reached her breaking point when it turned into a gang-up, with Erika Jayne and Diana Jenkins laughing about her being called the c-word.Kyle Richards seemingly orchestrated the confrontation by bringing up issues within the group. She found it necessary to bring up Garcelle Beauvais and Sutton unfollowing Erika on social media, which prompted reactions from the group. Garcelle had no problems explaining her reasoning for unfollowing Erika. The two ended up agreeing that they won’t be friends moving forward. However, when it came time for Sutton to explain herself, the Fox Force Five didn’t think being called a “c**t” wasn’t a good enough reason to unfollow Erika.Related: Why RHOBH Season 12 Became Too DarkDiana even enjoyed a laughing moment with Erika over the name-calling. The mean girl moment ended with Sutton bursting into tears and Garcelle going to console her. After watching the heated scene play out, RHOBH fans took to social media to call out the mistreatment Sutton was subjected to. Queens Of Bravo shared a still from the intense moment, calling the cast “massively disappointing” for not speaking up for Sutton when Diana dug into her for things she’s apologized for on more than one occasion. The photo showed how visibly hurt, and upset Sutton was during the gang-up.
It’s the latest of many heated RHOBH season 12 moments where Sutton was on the receiving end of the unwarranted shade. Many fans extended sympathy to Sutton for all she’s endured throughout the season. “Hard to watch,” one fan said. “This season is becoming uncomfortable to watch,” added another. One viewer called for RHOBH to be canceled after watching the “vile” behavior in Wednesday night’s episode. If Sutton were to leave the Bravo series, viewers think it would be to her benefit to protect her mental health. Almost every episode, the ladies go after Sutton for minor issues, yet they never attack Erika or anyone else in the group for things they have done or said. Fans believe this is the reason why there has been more backlash surrounding RHOBH season 12 than before.
Many have been calling for the removal or demotion of members of some long-time RHOBH cast members and newcomer Diana. The fans are tuned in but not impressed with what they’ve been seeing from the women. Viewers think RHOBH has become dark with bullying, microaggressions, and signs of racism from some cast members. Fans are calling for a cast shakeup next season, and there are rumors that might happen.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills airs Wednesdays at 8 p.m EST on Bravo.
