Sutton Stracke is opening up about her scary home invasion.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star's Los Angeles homes was burglarized in November, as was her co-star Kathy Hilton's. Stracke spoke with ABC News' Nightline about the traumatic experience in an interview airing Dec. 18.
"It feels strange to know that there were three men in my house in my room going through my drawers," Stracke, 54, said, "just looking and hunting."
The Nov. 15 incident's aftermath included a broken window, drawers rummaged through, and pulled out. The result was up to $1 million worth of luxury handbags and high-end jewelry stolen from the reality star's bedroom closet.
Among the items missing were several of her Hermès bags. As of the interview air date, nothing had been recovered. "Those are...gonna be [family] heirlooms," she continued of the taken items. "Not to mention also this strange sense of somebody was in here."

The mother-of-three theorized that the burglars were hitting houses throughout the neighborhood or "deliberately choosing" her and Hilton, 66, because it was known publicly that they were in Las Vegas for BravoCon 2025.
However, when asked if Stracke thought Housewives stars were being targeted with break-ins and robberies, she said no.
The reality star said the Los Angeles Police Department knew a break-in happened because her front door was wide open when the dog walker showed up in the morning. "My big kitchen window was shattered everywhere."
Stracke texted the RHOBH group chat, telling her co-stars to make sure their homes were secure as a precaution.
Stracke said that she "runs through" different scenarios in her brain about what she didn't do to make her home safe.
When reconciling the premise of the show, which includes showing off her luxurious lifestyle, with what happened to her, Stracke said that producers had always been protective.
"I never conjured the idea that somebody was watching this show to break into my house."
"Maybe it was because I'm on this television show. But I have to remember that my next-door neighbor was broken into a couple of years ago," she reflected. "I can't allow myself to live in fear of being on this show and not letting our viewers experience things in its most authentic, truest form."

As for advice she'd give non-reality stars after her break-in? "Be as careful as possible with your house." She acknowledged that she's fortunate to have armed security but that's important to lock up your house no matter what.
The Los Angeles Police Department confirmed to PEOPLE at the time that there were break-ins on the blocks where Stracke and Hilton live while they were traveling.
They also confirmed that "suspects fled the location." A burglary report was completed for both homes. A source close to Hilton told PEOPLE at the time that "everyone is fine."
Per ABC News' Nightline, Hilton's home was invaded hours after Stracke's. She told Extra that her husband, Rick Hilton, was home during the break-in and scared the burglars off with a shotgun. He also called 911.
