Sutton Stracke admits attending the 2022 People’s Choice Awards with all of her “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” co-stars was incredibly uncomfortable.
“If you can think about the most awkward family Thanksgiving dinner — just ramp it up a hundred times,” the “RHOBH” star exclusively told Page Six at her Beverly Hills boutique SUTTON’s holiday party on Thursday.
“It was the most awkward dinner ever. It was like gritting-our-teeth awkward.”
Stracke shared that the seating arrangements played a major role in all of the awkwardness.
“They told us where to sit,” the reality star said, explaining that “they” referred to “the people at E!”
“They just seated us. I didn’t choose my seat,” she added.

Her co-star Lisa Rinna showcased in an Instagram video that night that all of the women felt the same, saying, “This is so f–king awkward, and I love it.”
For Tuesday’s fan-voted award show recognizing people in entertainment, Stracke was seated next to Rinna, 59, who is her frenemy, while the Rinna Beauty founder was next to her rival Kathy Hilton.

The “I Want to Be a Hilton” alum was also seated next to her other nemesis Erika Jayne, and the “Pretty Mess” singer had her other adversary Crystal Kung Minkoff to her left.
Stracke told us that she and Rinna — who have not been able to fully move on from their feud over who paid for a table at an Elton John gala — spoke “a little” during the event.

“It’s so dysfunctional,” the Georgia native said of their relationship. “So, sometimes, one of us can say something funny, and we laugh because we feel awkward. It’s like, ‘Somebody just say something.'”
Stracke also weighed in on pal Hilton, 63, reapplying her lip gloss on stage while “Law & Order: Special Victims Unit” star Mariska Hargitay gave an impassioned speech about kindness, unity and inspiration after winning the award for Best Drama TV Star.

“I didn’t see it in the moment because I was far away,” the SUTTON boutique owner told us of the impromptu touch-up, adding that she loves Hargitay, 58, and her Olivia Benson character “so much” that she was “enraptured” by the actress’ moving words.
“Then I saw it go viral with Kathy applying her lip gloss,” she added. “I think she thought that the camera was not on her. I think that she thought the camera was off of her.”
Stracke added that she “didn’t see” Kathy Hilton’s viral lip gloss moment when it happened but believes the socialite didn’t know she was in the camera’s frame.NBC
“RHOBH” typically begins filming in the fall, but Bravo boss Andy Cohen recently revealed that production for the new season would begin “in the new year” after “a little break.”
“We’re always on a break between seasons, but it’s been nice to have a fall again,” Stracke shared, telling us all the things she’s been able to do while cameras have been down.

“I’m on the board for American Ballet Theatre, and I got to go to our fall gala. I hadn’t done that in a few years, so that was nice! My son is a freshman in college, and I got to go to parents’ weekend, and I’m having a store event — and having a store event without cameras is like normal life again, and I enjoy that!”
Even though Stracke is enjoying the temporary reprieve from shooting, the reality star wants her “Slutton” fans to know that she is “the same” person on camera as she is off.

“There’s no difference,” she said. “I show up, and that’s it. If I say weird things, I say weird things. That’s just what I do.”
Stracke’s boutique was buzzing Thursday night as friends, fashionistas, socialites and fellow Bravolebrities checked out her signature SUTTON pajamas and got their hands on her branded cashmere line.
