During her conversation, Garcelle not only discussed the status of her friendship with Sutton but also touched on which potential departure from the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills cast might prompt her to consider returning to the series. She candidly spoke about her biggest regrets and identified a fellow cast member she would reconnect with if given the opportunity. Additionally, Garcelle, 58, offered her thoughts on Rachel Zoe, 54, potentially joining the show, confirmed whether her son, Oliver Saunders, 34, is still working for Lisa Vanderpump, 65, and commented on Denise Richards’ turbulent divorce.
When asked if her friendship with Sutton, 53, had come to an end, Garcelle responded affirmatively on the October 23 episode of WWHL. “Yes,” she said. “Not only did she fail to support me at the reunion, but when she called me afterward, she never took responsibility for her actions. That was really hurtful to me.”
Reflecting on their past bond, Garcelle noted that her friendship with Sutton had been so strong that even her children would reach out to Sutton.
Looking back at their years-long friendship, Garcelle said she and Sutton were so close that her kids would call her.
“We were really close. I look back on [the friendship] fondly. We had some really good laughs. We were there for each other, mostly me there for her. But I don’t regret it. I don’t regret it,” she noted.
As for whose departure would make her consider rejoining RHOBH, Garcelle didn’t skip a beat.
“That’s a very good question. [Erika Jayne],” she replied.
Then, after noting that “Jax getting hurt on the show [was her] biggest regret,” Garcelle said that the one RHOBH star she’d reconnect with if she ran into them was “maybe” Kyle Richards, 56.
“Yeah. Maybe Kyle,” she shared.
Reflecting on her exit from the show, Garcelle said she “absolutely” knew at the reunion that her time on the series needed to come to an end before clarifying that the majority of her time on the show was “phenomenal” and “really fun.”
Regarding her recent reunion with Sutton’s former assistant, Avi Gabay, Garcelle said it was “awesome” to see him at the premiere of her new Lifetime film, Taken at a Truck Stop: A Black Girl Missing Movie.
“I hadn’t seen him since we both left the show, and he’s great. It was really, really cool,” she admitted as Andy Cohen, 57, said Avi had “left [Sutton’s employ].”
“Okay,” Garcelle replied.
She was then asked if she knew Rachel or had any advice for her.
“I have met Rachel Zoe many, many times, and no, she’s good. She’s gonna handle it. She doesn’t need any advice,” Garcelle stated.
Also on the live broadcast, after confirming that Oliver is still working for Lisa at her Vanderpump Cocktail Garden in Las Vegas, saying that the restaurateur “wants to be [the] godmother of [his new] baby” and noting that Oliver “loves” his job, Garcelle confirmed she’s the “momager” of her 18-year-old son, Jaid Nilon.
“He is doing well, but we’re gonna finish this last year of high school, and then he’s going to come to New York,” she shared of his modeling aspirations.
Later, while appearing on the WWHL: After Show, Garcelle was asked if she’d spoken to Denise, 54, since the news broke of her divorce from Aaron Phypers, 53.
“I sent her a text just saying, ‘I love you and I support you.’ It’s really tough to watch,” she stated.
