Bozoma Saint John can be credited for her fair assessments and eloquence in dealing with conflict. The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills newbie came on as a friend of Sutton Stracke. Yet as the season progressed, Boz started to rethink that relationship.
Boz is a RHOBH fan favorite. She’s got it all, a career, an attentive boyfriend named Keely Watson, and her delightful daughter Lael Saint John. The marketing executive made strong connections within the group. She hit it off immediately with Dorit Kemsley. But Boz was wary of Sutton’s conflicts within the group.
Bozoma Saint John was shocked by Sutton Stracke’s RHOBH antics
Boz spoke with RHOBH producer Alex Baskin on Bravo’s Hot Mic Podcast about her “really wild” freshman season.
The Bravolebrity had to retreat from her friendship with Sutton after deciding that she and her costar are “at a different place” currently.
“I am shocked by it because she’s not the person I anticipated,” Boz stated.
Despite their issues, Sutton still received praise from Boz. The mother-of-one called her “sharp,” “witty,” and “a good friend.” Boz also stated that Sutton does “show up” when needed. However, there are inconsistencies in her demeanor at times.
“Well, I’m very surprised at the Sutton who showed up in our conversations and in this season,” Boz explained.
“And, so, to see her pull experiences and then turn them on people, or to be really mean, for me that’s what was so surprising to me,” she continued. “I just didn’t anticipate that Sutton would be so mean, and so I don’t know who this version of a person is and whether or not she is trustworthy from now on out. I have no idea. But I feel like she’s one of those people that I will watch my back with.”
One point in particular stood out. Boz spoke about Season 14 Episode 13, when Sutton told Dorit to “pick on somebody else whose wallet fits.” For reference, the boutique owner gets $300,000 monthly in spousal support. And that’s “after taxes.”
“Now that was a low blow, my god,” Boz reacted during the podcast. “There is no way that she should be picking on anybody about anybody’s wallet, OK? She didn’t make that money herself, so we should actually be talking to her man.”
She added, “I’m like, she wants to talk about wallet size. Show me the money you made, and then we’ll see who wins.”
