Teddi Mellencamp Says Sutton Stracke ‘Just Seems Miserable’ on ‘RHOBH!’
Teddi Mellencamp fired shots at Sutton Stracke during the latest episode of the podcast she co-hosts with Tamra Judge, ‘Two T’s in a Pod.’
Fans will remember that Sutton called Teddi “boring” during her debut season on the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. Teddi returned the diss during her podcast when she remarked that Sutton appeared “miserable” on camera, and unable to have fun. Tamra agreed, labeling Sutton “aggressive” and “mean” toward her cast mates.
“I’d rather be boring and smile and be enjoyable and have fun than be whatever it is that Sutton is. Because Sutton, to me, has not shown one moment of fun this entire season,” Teddi remarked, on the July 1 episode. “Has Sutton laughed or had a good time? You guys love her shady confessionals and maybe there, she’ll smile but when she’s in the group of women, she just seems miserable.”
“I think the only time Sutton seems like a good time is when she’s doing karaoke with her assistant that she pays. That’s what lights her fire and makes her happy,” she added.
Tamra chimed in, taking aim at Teddi’s former co-star.
“She doesn’t smile,” Tamra replied. “She’s very aggressive… And she’s been saying some mean things.”
Tamra and Teddi shifted their chat to Garcelle Beauvais, who recently commented during an appearance on Watch What Happens Live that she would defend Sutton for calling Teddi boring, even though they hadn’t met at the time.
“Here’s the thing, Tamra is my witness. How did Garcelle treat me at the [MTV Movie & TV Awards]?” Teddi asked. “Who came up to who first?”
Tamra confirmed that Garcelle approached Teddi, adding that she initially thought Garcelle was “sweet.”
Teddi then pointed out that Garcelle criticized Diana Jenkins after she called Sutton boring.
“If she believes it is rude or mean for Diana to say that Sutton is boring, why is it not the same for me?” Teddi asked, surmising that Garcelle planned to stand by Sutton “no matter what.”
“I don’t know what the deal is with Garcelle. I feel like I’ve been repeatedly complimentary of her. I think she knows what’s going to generate press,” Teddi added.
The ladies then moved on to the latest drama surrounding Erika Jayne. Tamra admitted that she loves “seeing a drunk Erika.”
The podcast episode was filmed before Erika was seen hitting on Garcelle’s oldest son, Oliver, and nastily cursing at her 14-year-old son, Jax.
“I’d rather see somebody drunk having fun than somebody being mean and being closed off and not being able to understand when somebody sends a text and says, ‘I’ve had miscarriages and this is where I am,’ and still coming for them,” Teddi said.
Teddi admitted that she wasn’t a huge fan of the RHOBH newbie after watching last week’s episode, where Diana volunteered to be a “villain.”
“I believe that once she lost her emotional control, she went the opposite way. So instead of being vulnerable with everybody, she decided to tell everybody, ‘F you,’ all the time,” Teddi commented.
Tamra brought up Diana’s recent social media beef with Garcelle, where she boasted about the “many millions” she’s given to Garcelle’s native Haiti and “other 100% black communities.”
“That’s my issue with Diana. Do I think there are parts of Diana that has done all the right things with her money? Yes,” Teddi remarked, after noting that the Bravo rookie was too “money driven.”
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills airs Wednesdays at 8 pm, ET, on Bravo.
