Real Housewives of Beverly Hills‘ Erika Jayne she believes her colleagues have reason to be disappointed Sutton Stracke.

“We’re mad at Sutton because Sutton likes to kick the dog when he’s down,” Jayne, 53, exclusively said. My Weekly on Tuesday, January 7. “That’s a fact. I don’t think anyone looking at it without bias would say otherwise.’

Stracke, 53, did not see eye to eye Dorit Kemsley this season on the hit Bravo reality show — especially as she deals with a public divorce from PK Kemsley.

The altercation came just days after Stracke wrote an essay about friendship and sisterhood. Her words were later shared with the cast during a sisterhood ritual at a filmed dinner.

“I never bought into a sorority because you have to lead by example,” Jayne explained Our, with reference to Stracke’s essay. “It’s great to say things, but then you have to do it and you can’t do it once. It has to be consistent and it wasn’t. It’s a lot of nice words, but you have to lead. You have to take action.”

Stracke first started filming with Jayne in 2020 when she was the show’s “girlfriend” in season 10. Although the pair continue to work together in the current season, Jayne isn’t sure if she can call Stracke a true friend.

“Sometimes (she’s a friend). I think we’re on friendlier ground than ever,” she said. “I like Sutton when she’s bubbly and kind and funny. I don’t like her when she’s mean.”

Jayne isn’t the only Bravo star trying to figure out Stracke’s whereabouts. In the January 7 episode, the rookie Bozoma St. John questions whether Stracke is “delusional” or “evil”.

According to Jayne, the answer to this question is not always clear.

“I think there are times when Sutton is mean and there are times when she is herself,” she said. “We can all be a little delusional. We are all eccentric in our own way. We can all be petty, but there are times when we’ve all been mean to each other.”

Real Housewives of Beverly Hills airs Tuesdays at 8pm ET on Bravo. Fans can stream old episodes anytime on Peacock.
