By Casey Suglia

Sutton Stracke and Kyle Richards' friendship over the past few years has been complicated, to say the least.

How to Watch

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills cast members have experienced their fair share of ups and downs together over the years, resulting in them fighting, making up, and then getting into an argument about something (like Kyle's marriage troubles with her husband, Mauricio Umansky) all over again.

But, things seemed to change on RHOBH Season 13 Episode 15, when Sutton apologized to Kyle during an intimate friendship moment at a church while on vacation in Spain, as seen in the video above. "I'm sorry I haven't been a better friend," Sutton told Kyle while sitting together at the church.

"You have been," Kyle replied. "It's OK."

Host Andy Cohen, did not hold back when asking Sutton about her relationship with Kyle. When he asked Sutton if she ever expected Kyle to apologize for the things she had said in the past, she had a simple answer — no. 

"I don't think I am looking for an apology," she admitted. "For me, it was just apologizing to her, because I don't think that I was a good friend. And you know, I don't need an apology."

But that isn't to say that she wishes their ways of communicating were different — especially when it comes to Kyle talking to her friends about her current marriage issues.

"I wish that Kyle had been more open with us," she told Andy. "I think that personally, I was open with a lot of my feelings this season, and I kind of expected her to be more open with all of us."

Kyle Richards and Sutton Stracke's RHOBH Season 13 drama

Kyle and Sutton's feuding came to a head during a cast trip to Las Vegas on RHOBH Season 13 Episodes 4 and 5 after Sutton stormed out of Magic Mike Live. Kyle noted that Sutton has "a habit of losing [her] s—t in ridiculous circumstances" while Sutton accused Kyle of putting on a front by not being forthcoming with her issues.

"What is going on in your life, Kyle? Because you never talk about you," Sutton said. "Your life is perfect. You live in a fortress on top of a very high pedestal." 

During a January Amazon Live stream, Kyle admitted that she had a lot to address with Sutton at the RHOBH Season 13 reunion, which taped on Jan. 26.

"I think I just need answers, really, more than anything," Kyle said during the live stream. "I don't know why she came at me like I had done something wrong to her when I was struggling and could've used a friend."

But, Kyle said that she wants to move forward with Sutton and the rest of the RHOBH 'Wives that she has had conflicts with this year. "Hopefully, my goal is — after the reunion — is to put any hard feelings behind us and move forward," she said. "I never like leaving a reunion still not feeling good; or even worse, in a worse place than when we arrived there."
