Sutton Stracke Unfollows Garcelle Beauvais & States She Has A Replacement

The friendship fallout between Real Housewives of Beverly Hills stars Sutton Stracke and Garcelle Beauvais just got a lot more public, and a whole lot messier.

This week, Bravo fans noticed that Sutton had unfollowed Garcelle on Instagram, signaling yet another fracture in the already strained relationship between the two. Although Garcelle quietly unfollowed Sutton months ago, shortly after revealing she wouldn’t be returning for the upcoming season of RHOBH — Sutton’s decision to do the same has kicked off a wave of speculation, judgment, and fan theories.

Things escalated when Sutton shared a seemingly innocent photo on social media with a longtime friend, Ferne Asa Cutno. The two appeared close and happy in the post, which read:

“Loved every second with @ferneasacutno. Friends since we were 21, and we’ve been friends throughout: you name it! Dance Buddies forever ????????
Back to NOLA you go!??”

While the message may have been heartfelt, the timing didn’t go unnoticed, and neither did the subtext. Some fans immediately connected the dots, suggesting Sutton was publicly pivoting to a new friendship circle. One follower commented, “Is this Garcelle’s replacement?” to which Sutton directly responded, “Yes. And do not be rude.”

That curt reply sparked backlash across social media. Many fans interpreted the post, and Sutton’s quick comeback, as dismissive of her former bestie, especially in light of the ongoing tension between the two.

The fallout has been building ever since the RHOBH Season 13 reunion, where viewers slammed Sutton for staying silent and not standing up for Garcelle during tense exchanges. Considering the two had been close for several seasons, the lack of support didn’t sit well with fans, and the social media behavior since then has only reinforced their disappointment.

Garcelle’s decision to step away from RHOBH at least for now — came with rumors of burnout, exhaustion, and behind-the-scenes tensions. She didn’t explicitly call out Sutton, but her unfollow months ago hinted that their friendship might’ve hit a dead end even before the cameras stopped rolling.

As for Sutton, this new public post with Ferne, combined with her defensive tone, suggests she’s moving on — whether fans like it or not. Still, many feel the way she did it was unnecessarily cold. It’s one thing to rebuild your circle; it’s another to shade your ex-friend in the process.

While Sutton hasn’t addressed the unfollow directly (aside from the Instagram comment), the message seems loud and clear: whatever bond she once had with Garcelle, it’s no longer intact.
