“Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star Sutton Stracke is reportedly dating John C. Kelly, a former banker from New York City. A source told Page Six that the pair met on the dating app Bumble and have been spending time together since the summer.
Stracke, 56, recently hard-launched her new relationship by sharing photos of herself with Kelly on social media. One image captures a moment where Kelly is kissing Stracke’s cheek, surrounded by confetti. The pair were also seen together at Aerosmith's concert at the Hollywood Bowl.
Kelly previously worked as a banker at Morgan Stanley but left the industry in 2013. His departure followed an arrest and a 19-count indictment related to allegations of videotaping women during sexual acts without their consent between 2011 and 2012. He accepted a plea deal to avoid jail time.
Stracke, founder of the sustainable fashion line Sutton Brands, was previously married to Christian Stracke. Their divorce was finalized in 2018, and their marriage was later annulled by the Catholic Church. The couple shares three adult children.
Stracke has maintained a relatively private dating life since her divorce. Her most recent public sighting with Kelly occurred at Janie’s Fund, a charity founded by Steven Tyler that supports girls who have survived abuse and neglect.
