Lying on the table and prepped to receive her tattoo, Kyle asked Morgan to hold her hand. Despite Morgan’s reprimands about staying still as the artist worked, Kyle laughed as Morgan cracked jokes.
TheHalloweenactress eventually arrived home to find her husbandMauricio Umanskysitting in his office over copies of his new book,The Deal Maker. Kyle shared that she had gotten a new piece of body art with a bit of hesitation after Mauricio, 53,warned her about adding more inkto her body.

“Honey, what are you doing?” he asked as Kyle assured him that the tattoo was small. She explained that she went with a hip placement so “not many” people would be able to see it.
When Mauricio asked if she had gotten his name tattooed, she said “no” and revealed the celestial bodies on her lower half.
“Who’s gonna see this?” she said to which he replied, “Well,I hope I get to see it… I mean, like, often.”
Kyle may not have Mauricio’s name permanently etched on her skin, but Morgan will forever hold a piece of theRHOBHstar on her body.

Elsewhere in the episode, Kyle’s guests began arriving for dinner. Before the chef made his introductions about their cannabis-infused meal,Sutton Strackepulled her aside to put their drama behind them.
The southern business woman, 52,rehashed the events at her homeand explained her “aggressive” behavior. At the time of their fallout, Sutton revealed that her ex-husband, Christian, announced his continental move to London and demanded that she and their son James move with him.
Stressed out about the new developments in her personal life, Sutton shared that she lashed out on Kyle and assured her friend she wouldn’t be moving, but in fact would be receiving full custody of her son and increased child support payments.
“Why is it a problem if your money is getting increased?” asked Kyle, confused about Sutton’s issues.
Sutton accused her of not being “sympathetic” to her problems, which led to Kyle claiming she was “out of touch.”
“You’re not the friend that I know right now,” Sutton replied, asCrystal Minkoffentered the room to grab the ladies for dinner. Unable to see eye-to-eye, Sutton eventually left for the dining room as Kyle yelled after her, “If you have something you want to say just f—ing say it, Sutton.”
With tensions running high, everyone found their seat and Crystal asked the pair to air out their differences before dinner started.

Kyle accused Sutton for making “veiled threats” and asked her to elaborate on the problems she believed she had behind doors. When Sutton finally confronted Kyle about the details she was omitting about her life, the guests looked around the room in confusion untilGarcelle Beauvaisfinally brought up the subject of her marriage.
“What’s up with the new [wedding] band?” she asked as Sutton chimed in, “You haven’t been wearing your wedding ring.”
When Garcelle asked if the new ring was a “makeup band” from Mauricio after he made a mistake in their marriage, Kyle revealed that she bought the piece of jewelry for herself.
“So what you’re saying is if my husband cheated on me?” she exclaimed and the room went silent. Taking a thoughtful chew, Sutton replied, “Did I say that?”
“We’ve had a hard time, I’ve not had a great year,” Kyle explained before noting how she’s previously shared her marriage had been going through a rough patch at the housewives’ spiritual retreat. “Is that not enough for you guys? Do you want more? Do you want my husband to have cheated and bought me that band?”
“Everyone’s saying what’s going on with you?” she fired back. “If I’m having a good time and I’m exercising and not drinking because guess what, even if I have two glasses of wine, the next day I feel down and depressed.”
She added, “I can’t afford to be depressed right now.”
