Crystal Kung Minkoff Celebrates Sutton Stracke Friendship: ‘From Foe to Friend’

Though they initially got off to a rough start (Google “ugly leather pants”), Real Housewives of Beverly Hills stars Crystal Kung Minkoff and Sutton Stracke are now friends.

The two got off on the wrong foot early on, when Crystal characterized Sutton’s accidentally walking in on her naked as a “violation.” But apparently, calming face rollers are no longer a necessity. The two former foes have become friends.

On January 30, Crystal shared a photo of the pair from their RHOBH Season 13 cast trip to Barcelona. The cute photo reflected two loving friends, rather than warring foes.

Enemies no more

“From foe to friend,” Crystal captioned the post. “Grateful for this girl and [for her] always having my back.” Another Bravolebrity weighed in with her support. Southern Charm cast member Venita Aspen commented, “She’s the best.”

In addition to her friendship with Sutton, Crystal has also become close to Garcelle Beauvais. She and Sutton both joined her in December to celebrate Garcelle’s birthday at an upscale Los Angeles restaurant. Sutton posted pictures of the three of them enjoying their time together, as well as one of Garcelle blowing out the candles on her dessert.

“We got the photo!!!” Crystal wrote in the comments section. “And Sundays are FUNDAYS!!!”

When Crystal celebrated her 40th birthday in February 2023, both Garcelle and Sutton showed up to party with her, alongside several other RHOBH cast members. On Instagram, Sutton declared that the gathering was “so fun,” despite the stormy weather that had her “singing in the rain.”

Here’s hoping we can see more of these happy friendships in the future. It’s so much more fun to watch these ladies play together than it is to watch them scream and fight.

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills airs Wednesdays at 8/7c on Bravo.
