Sutton Stracke is officially off the market, and Page Six has the receipts. The“Real Housewives of Beverly Hills”star is dating John C. Kelly, a former Morgan Stanley banker from New York City. A source says the two met on Bumble and have been spending time together since the summer. Stracke confirmed the romance with photos that included a kiss on the cheek amid falling confetti, which is about as hard a launch as it gets.
The timing makes sense for RHOBH viewers. Stracke’s love life had been quiet since her 2018 divorce from Christian Stracke, which was later annulled by the Catholic Church. She and Kelly made their first public appearance together Sunday at Aerosmith’s sold-out Hollywood Bowl show, where Stracke attended as a guest of Steven Tyler’s Janie’s Fund charity.
What’s raising eyebrows is Kelly’s past. He left banking in 2013 after an arrest, and he faced a 19-count indictment for allegedly videotaping three women without consent between 2011 and 2012. He accepted a plea deal that avoided jail time. His father, John Q. Kelly, is a veteran high-profile litigator. Bravo fans are already debating what this means for Stracke’s storyline. Would you google a dating app match before the first date? Sound off in the comments.
