Sutton Stracke was introduced in the new season of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. The southern bell has been dividing fans as she’s been touted as being snobby while others like her outspoken personality. During the third episode of season 10, Stracke made Teddi Mellencamp cry after she called her boring. However, that is not why she ended up in tears and took to Twitter to clarify.

At Kyle Richards’ dinner party, the ladies played a game suggested by Lisa Rinna. All the girls went around the table revealing the first impressions they had of each other. When it was Stracke’s turn, she said that she believed Mellencamp would be really boring.

It wasn’t long before the accountability coach ended up in tears for the criticism but not because she called her boring. Mellencamp cried because she felt Stracke attacked her for being pregnant.

“‘And then pregnant, Gold help us…,’ is what got me,” Mellencamp clarified on Twitter. “I’ve been very open about my fertility struggles. So for somebody to come in with her ready-to-wear [dress] and put negativity on, it really upset me.”

Mellencamp has shared with her fans the struggles she had getting pregnant. For the RHOBH star, it was a sensitive issue as she thought she would not be able to carry her child. In a follow-up tweet, Mellencamp shared that she’s been called boring before and that was not the issue that made her break.

“If I broke down and cried every time I was called boring, Dove [her daughter] would need to swaddle me five times a day,” she added.

Teddi Mellencamp teases season 10

One of the major storylines being pushed by Bravo in their teasers for RHOBH Season 10 is the one around Denise Richards and Brandi Glanville. The pair allegedly had a hookup and it affected filming of the show this year. However, Mellencamp assures fans that, that is not the only major bombshell dropping this season.

“I think there’s other explosions that happen and I think you start to see people,” Mellencamp told Hollywood Life. “I think because everybody’s been a lot more open this year that there’s a lot more of people’s true colors coming out, over different things that you didn’t realize was the issue. You’re getting to the root of the issue why two people have a problem with one another or why there’s just constantly [movement] on the hamster wheel or whatever it may be. But yeah, there’s a lot of different things.”

Mellencamp teases that there’s more to the drama around Richards and it’s not all about her alleged affair with Glanville.

“A lot of things were going down with Denise,” she told Entertainment Tonight. “That’s really the issue, what happened with Brandi, I mean, that’s just, like, what they’ve played out in the press, but that’s not what any of us, or myself, had any situation with Denise about.”

The RHOBH stars can’t reveal too much about the plot ahead so fans will have to wait and watch what happens. The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills airs Wednesday nights at 8 p.m. ET/PT on Bravo.
