Kathy Hilton Branded ‘Heartless’ for Laughing During Sutton Stracke’s Health Scare

Who knew that Kathy Hilton joining the Season 13 Real Housewives of Beverly Hills reunion wouldn’t be the night’s biggest surprise? Sutton Stracke suffered a medical emergency, which some of her co-stars didn’t seem very concerned about.

Sutton began to shake and Garcelle Beauvais told the medics that she had complained about being hot. Her blood pressure and heart rate were elevated. But don’t worry, guys. Kathy was there to comfort make fun of her friend.

Kathy diagnosed Sutton with hot flashes

Kathy remarked that Sutton was having a “hot flash.” She said, “Sutton, you’re 49 years old. It’s bound to happen.” When Sutton told the medic that she “got scared,” Kathy commented, “Why?” Oof.

Then, as the medic continued to assess Sutton, Erika Jayne, and Kathy enjoyed a little chat. “How have you been?” Erika asked. Kathy replied that she “didn’t get to enjoy” the holidays. Then the duo discussed how Kathy just took her Christmas tree down. You know, the normal things you discuss during a co-worker’s health scare.

Kathy hints that Sutton faked her symptoms

As Sutton was being escorted to her dressing room, Kathy was joking about Sutton leaving. Kathy told her sister, Kyle Richards, “I was about to go after her next.” Kathy continued, “I was about to [go after her]. I think she knew it. It’s a good way to get out of being here,” she added as Erika laughed.

Well, RHOBH fans weren’t happy with Kathy and Erika’s behavior. One fan posted on X, formerly known as Twitter, “KATHY IS WILD FOR THIS! Like what the actual… Did she just drag Sutton while she’s like having a panic attack and then carry on having a casual convo with Erika about the holidays and replying to some texts?”

“So she willed her blood pressure and pulse up to dangerous level. Man, she is amazing,” another user posted. And one user called Kathy, “disgusting and heartless.” The feelings were pretty unanimous, as someone else wrote, “It’s rude and uncaring. Erika cares about no one but herself.”

After her trip to the ER, Sutton shared what caused her frightening symptoms. She was diagnosed with a severe case of bronchitis, dehydration, and exhaustion. “Between those three things, it was the trifecta of sickness, so I had to stay in bed for about 10 days,” Sutton shared. So, I guess she wasn’t faking to avoid Kathy, her supposed friend.

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills is streaming on Peacock.
