300

On the latest episode of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, Garcelle Beauvais’ kind gift to Sutton Stracke’s mom, Reba, didn’t exactly receive the warm reception she might have hoped for. In fact, the reaction was downright chilly, leaving Garcelle and the cast to reflect on the awkwardness.

While Garcelle, Sutton, and Jennifer Tilly discussed the moment in detail on the Bravo After Show, Sutton revealed that her mom’s unfiltered nature isn’t just reserved for casual conversations—it extends to gift exchanges too.

“I think I got it for Christmas,” Sutton shared about the scarf Garcelle gave Reba, adding an element of humor to the situation.

Sutton’s suggestion that Reba may have “regifted” the scarf sparked a hilarious response from Garcelle: “Did she regift it? I’m dead! I’m dead!” Garcelle admitted that Reba’s reaction to the gift—essentially questioning, “What am I gonna do with this?”—was not what she expected. To lighten the mood, Sutton humorously suggested, “A chisel? I don’t know… She likes a bathrobe.”

Despite the awkward exchange, Jennifer Tilly reminded everyone that it was the gesture that mattered most. She even described Reba’s personality: “She just says what’s on her mind. She has absolutely no sensor.” The blunt honesty might have stung a little, but the sentiment was clear—Reba is unapologetically herself.

Kyle Richards, chimed in with a more empathetic take. “Reba can be harsh, but I think she’s coming from a good place,” Kyle said, trying to see the silver lining.

As the conversation shifted, Sutton opened up about her own emotional struggles, particularly regarding her divorce from ex-husband Christian Stracke. Reba’s involvement in that chapter of her life wasn’t always smooth sailing, especially when Reba and Christian seemed to maintain a close bond. “She and Christian were very close. In a way, it was like a PK and Kyle thing,” Sutton explained, referencing the close friendship between RHOBH’s Kyle Richards and PK Kemsley. Sutton admitted feeling hurt when Reba and Christian continued their conversations, even after their separation. “Why are you talking to him?” she questioned, noting that it had become a source of tension. After confronting Reba, Sutton said, “I was like, ‘You’re hurting my feelings.’”

Now, Sutton Stracke believes the situation has settled. “I think she’s gotten it. I think they don’t talk anymore,” she added with a sense of resolution.

In a final revelation, Sutton shared an amusing moment from Thanksgiving when Reba called her son James “weird.” Sutton confessed to bringing up the comment to James: “I was like, ‘Mom, you know, you have to remember. You did call James the weird one.’” Reba, ever direct, stood by her words, responding: “Well, James, you are weird.”

In the world of RHOBH, where drama is never far behind, Sutton Stracke’s family dynamic and Garcelle’s well-intentioned gesture proved to be a rich source of conversation. It’s clear that, while Reba might not always fit the mold of a traditional ‘thankful recipient,’ her no-filter approach to life keeps things unpredictable—just like the world of Beverly Hills.
