Dorit Kemsley took aim at Sutton Stracke on her Instagram Story on Thursday by sharing a clip from Gary Janetti in which the TV writer alleged that Sutton’s store was closed.
As the ladies continued to go to war on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, with Sutton, 53, recently calling Dorit, 48, a “b*tch,” labeling her “Poorit,” and pointing out that she had a bigger wallet, Dorit reshared Gary’s post as Sutton clapped back at her, defending her Beverly Hills boutique and insisting that she isn’t closed, but expanding the business
“I’m walking to get my Verve Coffee. Now, if you watched The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills the other night, Sutton was in her store, Sutton. Now this is the store, long shuttered up,” Gary alleged as he arrived at the business’ location on March 6. “So, it’s not Sutton, it’s nutton now.”
Then, after showcasing the exterior of the boutique, Gary added, “Maybe Sutton can ease up off of Dorit. I love Dorit.”
Following Dorit’s posting of the video, Sutton offered a statement, confirming her store wasn’t actually “long shuttered,” as Gary suggested.
“The thing is. I’m in the back now, Expanded hunty!” she declared.
While many, including Bozoma “Boz” Saint John, 48, have been critical of Sutton’s financial digs at Dorit, calling them “so low,” Sutton hasn’t been all that apologetic for her comments. In fact, while appearing on Tuesday’s episode of Watch What Happens Live, after noting that the diss was made out of anger, she said it wasn’t “shady,” but “reasonably shady” due to what she’s gone through on the show.
“I’ve gotten a lot over the past years, so sometimes it just has to come out,” she explained. “[And] it just came out. I’m not doubling down; I’m just, you know … I don’t know.”
At the same time, Sutton Stracke is facing a lawsuit worth $158,000 over unpaid rent for her restaurant. Although The Sutton Concept has now closed, the unresolved financial issues continue to haunt her. This lawsuit is just one of the challenges the RHOBH star is dealing with, drawing more attention to the state of her business. How will Sutton handle these financial pressures?
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills season 14 airs Tuesdays at 8/7c on Bravo.
