Erika Girardi: Quitting The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills? Please, No!
On the heels of last week’s shade-filled reunion, many fans of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills are concerned about cast shakeups.
Someone tweeted a rumor that Erika Girardi might be leaving the series — of her own volition!
This could be devastating to her fans.
This heartbreaking rumor was broadcast on Twitter.
“Hearing that @erikajayne has quit #RHOBH and that a statement will be published after this season airs.”
Even the tweeter acknowledges that this dire prediction is not confirmed.
“Could just be a rumor.”
But she thinks that it’s the real deal.
Here is the tweet itself:
The tweet continues, this time with less rumor and more opinion.
“However after this season plus Reunion Part 1, I would not be surprised if this [were] true.”
Clearly, not everyone would be sorry to see Erika go.
“And I can’t say I would care either, bye girl!”
Harsh.
It’s understandable that people might believe that this is a sensible time for Erika to leave.
After all, Erika seemed to be a little “checked out” during recent The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills episodes. Including the reunion.
Normally not one to half-ass anything, particularly in defense of herself or of others, she’s limited responses to lines like “I am so confused.”
What’s the most heated that Erika has been on the show lately? The confrontation over “fake amnesia?”
Additionally, look at Erika’s career.
She’s still popular, and her recent memoir made the New York Times Bestseller’s list.
There’s a wisdom in quitting while you’re ahead.
What’s more, Reality Blurb says that their source close to production says that Erika has been threatening to quit.
But … threats aren’t the same as follow-through.
At time same time … Erika might make a mistake if she leaves.
For example, not every Real Housewife gets to become a meme that’s used by people who don’t even know that it’s from a Real Housewives show.
The above gif has been widely used for years across social media platforms. Meme status is something to treasure.
Additionally, though Erika was famous before she ever became a Real Housewife, she might expect for her visibility to fall if she leaves the show.
Just as people might point to her recent book sales making this a great time to leave, it could also be a reminder that being a Real Housewife has its advantages.
If you want to sell something, being on a show makes that a lot easier.
Just saying.
The best evidence that Erika probably isn’t leaving the franchise doesn’t come from speculation about the timing or whatnot.
Recently, Erika was seen doing promo work with Cynthia Bailey and Kandi Burruss.
It would be very strange to be taking promo photos with fellow Real Housewives (especially from a different series) if you’re not, you know, staying with the show.
It sounds to us like Erika threatened to quit, which created rumors that she’s leaving the show, but ultimately stuck with it.
But that’s just our guess, based upon these reports. You never know.

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 9 Episode 19 Recap: Erika Girardi vs. PK Kemsley
Erika Girardi is tired of the accusations that she ices people out for no reason.
That was not her biggest concern on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 9 Episode 19, as she finally got to have it out with PK Kemsley over his persistent hatred towards her.
When the episode got underway, Andy Cohen wanted to know why Erika melted down in Hong Kong after Eileen Davidson made a lofty claim about her son.
Erika reiterated what she had already said to Eileen about the freakout, and felt it was best to leave it in the past. That was probably for the best.
We then switched gears to get some insight into the feuding between Lisa Rinna and Lisa Vanderpump. Most of their issues stemmed from the fact one did not know when the other was being sincere.
“You and I had a moment where you reached out to [me], and that was a powerful moment,” Rinna said.
“We shared a moment with a really special person when we went to get those ponies.”
It turned out that a pilot they had befriended died in a crash.
“I thought, ‘My God, it just puts everything in perspective,"” Vanderpump said, with teary eyes. Vanderpump then revealed that she found it sincere, but then she saw the tape.
“But then I see the tape, and I just get pissed off,” Vanderpump added.
With one friendship on the mend, Andy turned to Dorit to let her know her accent was causing some drama on social media.
She said that her family was not American and that she spoke Hebrew, Italian and Spanish fluently.
Even though Rinna felt the accent was all over the place, Dorit shrugged it off. It sure seems like she’s done some maturing since filming ended.
Things took a turn when PK joined in the fun. Andy questioned how he became so rich, and he had a perfect response.
“I started richer,” he laughed. “I started in ’95, and I spent the first 20 years of my career in real estate.”
He did not exactly give a solid answer. He opted to waffle, perhaps hoping that would confuse people enough to keep quiet about his past.
Andy wanted to know whether PK getting involved in the feuds was too much and he did agree he could have been more reserved.
Erika cringed as Andy showed off all of the drama with the underwear.
“It’s embarrassing,” Erika said. “It’s not something that was done on purpose. It was something that was made into something that it wasn’t.”
While Dorit tried to imply that Erika blurted it out, Kyle refuted the claims and said she was asked the question.
PK wanted everyone to know he was trying to make light of it all by bringing it up several times throughout the course of the season.
Just as things appeared to be getting back on track, Erika snapped at PK when he said she was trashing his wife a little too much.
“I’m not calling her a nasty person,” Erika said without any hesitation. “I’m calling you a nasty person for saying that s–t about me.”
Could things really get more strained for this group? We’ll find out next week!

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 7 Episode 17 Recap: Who Did Erika Girardi Apologize To?
Did Dorit take cocaine with her gal pals at Lisa Rinna’s party?
That was one of the more pressing questions on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 7 Episode 17 as the bickering between the ladies hit crazy new heights.
When the episode got underway, the ladies were still going at it, with Dorit turning on the water works to claim she was not the type of person Rinna tried to imply.
“Rinna just gets so upset that you just don’t know what she’s going to pull out of that bag of hers, but it’s going to be one sharp dagger,” Kyle Richards said to the camera.
“I saw what I saw, and that behavior speaks pretty loudly,” Rinna said to the camera.
The next day, Lisa Vanderpump decided to play peacemaker and visited Rinna to say she felt she was horrible to Dorit.
Vanderpump invited Rinna to a wine tasting at her house to see if she and Dorit could make things right with each other.
“Maybe she could apologize to Dorit because she’s really been kind of a bitch to her, to be honest,” Vanderpump said to the camera.
While Rinna escaped to Philadephia for a work commitment, the other ladies embarked on a shopping trip, but Eden’s strange behavior continued.
Eden decided to latch on to Erika and tried to buy her a friendship ring.
“I don’t understand why you’re buying me this ring,” Erika said, confused.
“Because I love you!” Eden screamed back. “Just say thank you, and ‘I love you, too."”
Yeah, there’s something odd about the way Eden tries to make nice with the ladies.
Some time later, Erika, Eileen, and Kyle met for lunch. Erika wanted to apologize for the way she behaved towards Eileen.
“I’m sorry that I had a meltdown on you at the table. I apologize. It has nothing to do with you. I was stressed out, and those words are very sensitive to me, so I had a meltdown,” she said.
“I was tired, and I was exhausted from that fight [with Dorit] and from trying to take the high road — and then I took the low road,” Erika giggled.
“I’m not sure that Dorit is sincere,” Erika said.
“I’m not sure that either she or PK understand what they’ve done.”
Meanwhile, Dorit met with PK and told him about the cocaine claims. He called her “schizophrenic” before taking aim at Erika.
“I’m not calling her husband!” he said.
“She should call her husband because she doesn’t see him very often. Check in. ‘How you doing, Tom?’ It’s been six months.”
Is it just us, or does PK seem like someone who is stuck in high school? Grow the eff up.
Lisa Vanderpump’s lavish party finally arrived, and the ladies struggled to stick to the dress code. Apparently, red, pink and diamonds were part of the dress code.
That’s a typical LVP party right there. Vanderpump noticed Dorit was acting strangely. Dorit revealed the tension amongst the group of ladies was getting to her.
Surprisingly, there was no cliffhanger. Everything seemed to go well, but there’s still one more episode left this season for all the drama to go down.
What do you think will happen?

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 7 Episode 16 Recap: Erika Girardi Flips Out
Did Erika Girardi turn on Dorit Kemsley?
That was a key question on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 7 Episode 16 as the trip to Hong Kong continued.
When the episode got underway, the two women continued their epic argument.
“You’re dying for my attention, and now you have it!” Erika shouted at Dorit.
“What on Earth would I need from you, Erika?” Dorit yelled. “You’re not interesting. You’re not fun. You’re cold as f–king ice.”
Erika then revealed that Panty Gate was still on her mind.
“Do you think I’m really going to like you after everything that happened with the underwear?” Erika asked. “You took something that was innocent and turned it into this, ‘Oh, she’s doing it on purpose."”
If you watch The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills online, you will already know that Erika’s underwear caused quite the stir at a party a few weeks back.
Erika revealed to the camera that she felt great calling Dorit out.
“It felt good to tell Dorit to go f–k herself.”
Surprisingly, Dorit was quick to point out that she had no idea Erika felt as strongly as she did about the whole thing. After that, Lisa Rinna chimed in that Dorit should have apologized on behalf of PK.
“I’m sorry that my husband was glaring at your vagina.”
Dorit’s apology paved the way for Lisa Rinna to point in her face. Lisa Vanderpump spoke up with her views on the matter.
“They basically all thought it was a great idea, and then when Erika didn’t take it as quite a joke, they backed off. That’s not fair,” she said.
Erika fired back that she was still not impressed with the way Dorit was treating her.
“This is f–king bulls–t. She’s out to humiliate me. Hooray, you did it.”
On the car ride home, Erika revealed she felt like she had not been treated fairly and thought Dorit should take that into consideration.
Elsewhere, Vanderpump, Kyle, and Dorit went somewhere else to try and stop the arguing. Dorit persisted to trash Erika and said that her squad was probably getting in her head.
The next day, the ladies met for dinner, and Rinna wasted no time in asking Dorit whether she had apologized to Erika. Erika revealed she had not.
Erika pressed, saying it was something that should have never been spoken of again. As you can probably expect, Dorit said she had no recollection of what went down.
Kyle went for Rinna when she brought Dorit’s husband into it. Apparently, it was because Kim said something about Harry Hamlin in the past and Lisa did not like it.
Erika dropped the bomb that the root of her concern was that she, herself, had to explain to her husband about the whole incident.
“Making me out to be a f–king slut or a whore or trying to seduce someone’s husband — it was at my expense, and I’m the one who has to live through that,” she snapped.
“You can apologize to him and say, ‘You know what Tom, I f–ked up,’ and then your husband can apologize to him, too.”
Dorit agreed that was the best course of action, but when everything seemed okay, it all kicked off again. Eileen said something she should not have.
“Don’t ever talk about my kid again! Shut the f–k up! You don’t know what I deal with every night! That’s really insensitive. Your kid’s not out there!”
Apparently, Erika’s kid is a police officer.
Okay then.
Things went from bad to worse when Rinna asked if Dorit was doing cocaine in her house.
What did you think of all the drama?
Erika Girardi Suffers Epic Meltdown: Watch the Tears Flow!
Erika Girardi has had herself quite the week.
On Monday evening, The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star made her debut on Dancing with the Stars, entering on board a unicorn, descending a flight of silver glittery stairs and then doing this on stage:
Then, on Tuesday night, the Bravo actress was featured in one of the most unexpected breakdowns in show history.
During a trip to Hong Kong, Girardi was reduced to anger and tears after good friend Eileen Davidson tried to smooth things over between Erika and Dorit after their blowout on the junk boat.
"She didn"t kill your child," Davidson told Giradi, attempting to put their argument into perspective.
But this comment simply shifted gears in Erika"s mind to her son, who is a police officer and whose life is therefore on the line with every shift.
"Hey, Eileen, let"s not do that," Girardi shot back. "And don"t ever bring up killing my child again because my child could get killed."
Davidson said many times that she didn"t mean her remark like that… but it was too late.
"Eileen, your kid doesn"t put on a uniform every night and put his life out on the line for people he doesn"t know," Erika said, growing more and more emotional.
Lisa Rinna went over to console Girardi, but the tears were flowing and the pressure of everything was too much to bear.
She cursed at Davidson and she continued to tell everyone to never bring up her child again.
"I"m very proud of my son being in law enforcement, but obviously it can get a little nerve racking," Erika has previously said to Bravo, adding:
"It’s a dangerous profession. I"ve known my son was going to be in law enforcement from the time he could walk and talk. That"s all he’s ever wanted and that"s kind of your role as a parent is to honor who your children really are."

Erika Jayne Unleashes "Inner Bad Girl" on RHOBH
We"ve been waiting to meet the woman who"s never said no to a body stocking.
I"m not much of a techno-lovin" dance club kid, so I"m not familiar with singer Erika Jayne, also known as Erika Girardi.
Jayne, 46, has been on the club scene since 2007, with a string of hits to show for it. She"s been married to "uber famous" lawyer Tom Girardi for 15 years.
Tom defended residents of Hinkley, CA after their water was contaminated, earning them a $ 333 million settlement; the case inspired the movie Erin Brokovitch.
Erika and Tom are friends with Yolanda and David Foster, whom Tom calls "two extraordinarily terrific people."
Tom"s happy with Erika appearing on the show, but don"t expect to see him in any episodes.
"I told them they could photograph the back of my head twice,” Tom told The National Law Journal. “Hopefully, I dodge it.”
Anyhoo, Jayne"s big introduction features her rehearsing for an upcoming show, which involves gyrating, trying on aforementioned body stockings, and talking about how "sassy" she is.
"She"s class and ass and heels, all woman all the time and curvy," Jayne explained. "She"s over the top fabulous."
"Erika Jayne is a total rebel," she says. "If I don"t honor my inner bad girl, I"m not going to be happy."
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills airs tonight at 9pm ET on Bravo.
