As Santa Claus finishes his preps at the North Pole, he is also no doubt checking to see which Bravo stars have been naughty, or nice. I’d say many of those celebs would fall under the naughty category. During Season 14 of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, there hasn’t been too much drama. Unless you count the vicious feud between Dorit Kemsley and her former bestie, Kyle Richards.
Make no mistake, these two ladies are at war. Meanwhile, RHOBH welcomed a brand-new housewife, the fascinating Bozoma Saint John. And she hit it off instantly with Dorit. Plus, Kyle’s big sister Kathy Hilton is back as a friend of the cast, as is Sutton Stracke’s good friend, actress Jennifer Tilly. All in all, this feels like a season full of possibilities. Or, as Santa would say, tons of opportunities to land on his naughty list.
So, which RHOBH stars are already on Santa’s naughty list? And who is chilling on his nice list? Let’s find out!
Sutton Stracke – Nice
So far, Sutton has been pretty quiet for Season 14 of RHOBH. She held a bonkers Surrealism party inspired by Salvador Dali, the artist. The costumes were wild, and it was just over-the-top fun. Unfortunately, Dorit chose that moment to hit back at Kyle. It turned the conversation into a spectator sport while the two ladies screamed at each other.
During the girls’ trip, Sutton told Dorit that she was there to support her, and would even go to court with her if she and her husband, PK Kemsley, divorced. That was a wonderful offer since this twosome has a history of butting heads.
Plus, Sutton wrote up a lovely essay about sisterhood and friendship. Then, in a ritual, the ladies had their hands tied together to bind their sisterhood. Unfortunately, the ritual was a bust, as Dorit and Sutton argued the next morning on the way to the airport. Still, Sutton’s gestures of goodwill earned her a spot on Santa’s nice list.
Kyle Richards – Naughty
Kyle’s fallout with Dorit was almost inevitable. So, what happened to cause the friendship to implode? Kyle sent Dorit a text right before the Season 13 RHOBH reunion. After Dorit deemed it “manipulative,” Erika Jayne agreed. However, Kyle was furious at Dorit for exposing the text message.
Then, at BravoCon, Dorit was asked to “rate the Richards sisters” from favorite to least favorite. Instead, Dorit tried to sip her drink, which Kyle nearly knocked out of her grasp. Kyle admitted that she was “embarrassed” by the entire incident. Plus, Dorit sided with Kyle’s sister, Kathy, during the Season 12 reunion, which made Kyle angry at Dorit.
However, all of this drama put a tangle in Kyle’s tinsel, because she wasn’t prepared for an activated Dorit. “What’s happened to you?” Kyle asked. “Why are you doing that?” Dorit replied, “Because I’m not going to put up with your sh*t anymore, Kyle.” Damn, Dorit!
So, after years of allegedly icing out Dorit if she did anything that Kyle disliked, this Christmas movie queen was shocked to play defense. And let’s just say that right now, the temperature between these longtime friends is frosty at best.
Erika Jayne – Nice
I don’t know what it is about Erika this season. She is relaxed, fun, and not throwing daggers at anyone. This Pretty Mess is concentrating on her career and living her best life. It looks like some of the pain from her ongoing divorce from Tom Girardi has finally settled, and she can take a deep breath.
It was interesting to see how Erika was trying to play the role of Switzerland in Kyle and Dorit’s feud. Before, Erika would have immediately defended Kyle. However, now she was trying to get Kyle and Dorit to talk and work it all out.
Even Erika’s shade is lighter and more humorous than before. After Sutton’s friendship ritual, Erika weighed in during her confessional. “I’m sorry. Are we in cheer camp? Are we in Brownie camp? Girl scout camp?” she asked. Before, she would have lit Sutton up. It is a well-known fact that the jolly man at the North Pole appreciates a sense of humor. So, no coal for Erika this year!
Garcelle Beauvais – Naughty
On the way to their glamourous beach day, RHOBH fans heard about how Garcelle Beauvais dated Will Smith, Eddie Murphy, and Sean Penn. Plus, Garcelle, Sutton, and Jennifer were all very involved in a drinking game about sex. How merry!
Later, when Dorit and Kyle had another dinner table disagreement, this time, Garcelle chimed in. After Dorit claimed that she always acknowledges when she’s done something wrong, Garcelle disagreed. According to Garcelle, Dorit never apologizes. “And let’s be honest. I’m not your favorite person. You’re very clear about that,” Dorit told Garcelle. “Okay. Great. Then we’re on the same page,” Garcelle responded. Brrr!
However, Garcelle was not done going after Dorit. The next day, she asked Dorit why she reposted a social media post from Teddi Mellencamp if she and Teddi weren’t friends. Of course, Dorit replied that she never said that she wasn’t friends with Teddi. They just weren’t close. But that wasn’t what Dorit said.
Plus, Garcelle’s super shady confessionals landed her on the North Pole’s naughty list. When Dorit claimed that her latest drama was all about Teddi, Garcelle disagreed. “It’s not about Teddi! Although Teddi will be thrilled,” Garcelle said during her confessional.
Bozoma Saint John – Nice
Bozoma is a newbie this season. She is newly retired from corporate America, where she was a kick-ass marketing executive for companies such as Uber and Netflix, to name just a few. Her accomplishments are beyond impressive.
In addition, she is a widow and has one daughter. Bozoma is also a good friend of Sutton’s. Plus, her fashion is fire. She slays in every outfit, and she becomes fast friends with another fashionista in the group: Dorit. They bonded over Boz’s loss and Dorit’s separation.
Obviously, Boz has already figured out the group dynamic. None of the ladies are “direct,” and Boz will have to dig through layers to figure out what is the truth.
At first, Boz was startled by the screaming and cursing at Sutton’s party, but now she seems to have settled in with the group. Plus, she is an incredible, magical addition to the cast.
Dorit Kemsley – Nice
The Season 14 version of Dorit is new to the RHOBH audience. She isn’t afraid of anyone and is standing up for herself. Dorit put Kyle on notice that she was tired of being iced out if she did anything to upset her.
Plus, Dorit told Kyle that her comments during an Amazon Live were hurtful. As you may recall, Kyle claimed that Dorit “exaggerated” their friendship. All because Dorit had defended Kyle’s sister, Kathy.
It seemed like Kyle was stunned by Dorit’s fierce energy and refusal to back down. Dorit is also navigating a separation from her husband, PK. In the past, Dorit would have crumbled. Instead, she is honest and open about her marital struggles. Her attitude about her separation, and the implosion of her friendship with Kyle, is bold and refreshing. And that is why Dorit’s name is on Santa’s nice list.
Jennifer Tilly – Naughty
Jennifer is one of Sutton’s besties. She is also a professional poker player and is rich. You see, she owns a piece of The Simpsons, thanks to her late ex-husband, Sam Simon.
Fans love Jennifer’s lust for life and quirky behavior. Going on a girls’ trip? You better pack that sage, just in case! Plus, she fit right in playing raunchy, sex-themed drinking games in the Sprinter van. Let’s just say that Jennifer knows a fair amount about crooked d*cks.
I love how Jennifer embraces the truth. She told Kyle that she was “kind of enjoying” the argument between Dorit and Kyle. Even if you thought it, would you say it? Probably not. But that’s why Jennifer is a riot on RHOBH. She lights up a room like a twinkling holiday display. And I have a feeling she would be offended if she wasn’t on Santa’s naughty list.
Kathy Hilton – Nice
If the pleated bucket hat makes a comeback, we will owe it all to Kathy. What I have learned about Kathy boggles my mind. She delivered suitcases packed with goodies, like beach towels and cans of Red Bull, to the cast as invites for a girls’ trip.
This box fan enthusiast told a chef how to grill lobster on a yacht. She is, as Kyle stated, “bossy.” However, she is also incredibly entertaining. She refused to use the lobster dining tools, asking Jennifer to pull it out with her fingernails instead. Well, that is … something.
Kyle also shared that she found Kathy brushing her teeth with toothpaste and her eye shadow brush. Don’t worry, Kathy. If you keep being good, maybe Santa will slip a new toothbrush into your stocking.
Real Housewives of Beverly Hills airs on Tuesdays at 8/7c on Bravo.
