Mending fences. After a rocky introduction during season 11 of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, Crystal Minkoff opened up about her surprising friendship with Sutton Stracke.
“I’m friends with everyone. I talk to Sutton a lot. We talk a lot,” the reality star, 36, exclusively told Us Weekly at the 30th Annual Elton John AIDS Foundation Academy Awards Viewing Party on Sunday, March 27.

The California native replied to the post, writing, “Thank you, Sutton. Your apology means a lot to me, and I’m sure it means a lot to many others with similar lived experiences. Asian Americans are often expected not to share their opinions,
