Sutton Stracke Isn’t the Only Beverly Hills Housewife to Become a Victim

Years before Stracke appeared on “RHOBH,” the show’s longest-running cast member, Richards, herself was the victim of a home break-in.
Richards got emotional talking about the ordeal at the “RHOBH” reunion and in an interview with PEOPLE, sharing that more than $1 million in jewelry and luxury items were stolen.
“Everything that my late mother had collected and saved to give to me – that I had always planned to pass on to my four daughters – was gone,” she said. “Even my children’s baby bracelets. Obviously, those are the things that hurt the most, things that I can’t replace. They’re absolutely priceless.”

Kemsley remembers begging for mercy
In 2021, Kemsley made headlines after being the victim of a home burglary. She recalled the terrifying experience in a later episode of “RHOBH,” telling her co-stars that she begged for mercy from the thieves.
“Please, please. I have little babies. Please, I’m a mother. Please, I’m begging you. My kids need me,” she remembers saying. “I was begging and begging and the other guy was like, ‘Fuck her! Fuck her!'”
Since reporting the break-in, Kemsley has received backlash from fans who believed she staged the encounter for attention. On “Watch What Happens Live” with Andy Cohen, she answered questions asking why she didn’t take precautions to protect her home before the incident, such as setting the house alarm.
“I have young children. They get up in the middle of the night and usually come to my room,” she said. “If I activate the alarm – and the reason I didn’t or didn’t before – is because they might drift downstairs and the alarm would go off.”
