I am fairly sure she is leaving the show.
It will either be another divorce by Bravo, or she will move back in and keep their lives off the show.
I’ll miss the Erika Girardi of past seasons. And also Erika Jayne.
Come for the tea. Stay for the shade.
Holy Cow! I’m genuinely surprised. I hope she’s okay. The small part of me fumes that it isn’t Dorit.
The majority of me fumes that it isn’t Dorit!
Erika is going on Soaps now. She doesn’t have time for Bravo
ERika had a half day shoot where she will be shown on two more upcoming episodes of Y & R. That’s not “going into soaps.” Erika has nothing but time.
Get this ego bitch off the show. She’s mean and just obnoxious. What’s to like? Uh. Nothing.
Delete I did not write this. Phone is hacked.
Perhaps you have Dissociative Identity Disorder. You should check in to that.
I found her hard to bear this season. I would miss her though. It was looking like they were bringing back Camille to have someone to spar with. I’ve felt all season that she was largely on her own except for her glam squad.
I will be sad to see her go. All these ladies have good seasons and bad seasons. I think she was good addition to the series, not as good as my Dorit, but still good.
Siding with Dorit, especially against someone like Teddy, probably didn’t give her the edit she wanted for the season either.
She was the queen of seasons past and now she has become mean girl. I miss the old Erica but I won’t miss this seasons Erica . I will miss her fashion statements each week. I do love the glamour she brings.
? <—- this is because, ONCE AGAIN, I got the blind item WRONG~! Why oh WHY can I never, ever ever ever ever guess those ?♀️
Now, on to the news – I really used to like Ericka in her first season or two, but then she just became way too cool for everyone and her arrogance as led to her fall… I would bet that between what it’s happening per the blind item and the inevitable feeling the fan base beginning to fade – she is getting out while pride is still intact. I dunno ?♀️Either way, I wish her well!
I’m sure Lisa Rinna’s somewhere crying into her QVC duster.
I’m dying here lol
Ha ha ha
Maybe her famous attorney husband didn’t like her performance
Wish it were Dorit going instead!
Her old man has a new GF. I hope she gets some young man for a change. And everything else she wants.
And I hope Luanne sends her that “Don’t let it be about Tom” pillow for her new apartment
If true he has a new gf, could Tom just not handle playing second fiddle for once? Is his ego really that massive that he couldnt applaud and enjoy his wife’s success and time in the spotlight? Or maybe Erika wasn’t giving him the attention he was used to.
I wonder if this was Erika’s endgame all along, ala Yolanda and Jules.
Good thing there’s no prenup.
Of course this was her plan. Stay with old Girardi long enough to get half. Now she can meet someone and actually fall in love. They led totally separate lives since she started the Ericka Jayne cartoon character. The difference in age is ridiculous. She still looks good (minus all the crappy makeup) but he can’t hide his wrinkled balls any longer.
I think he has been her faux daddy since she doesn’t have a relationship with her real daddy.
I think Erika is incapable of real love. Something must have caused her to be cold and unfeeling when she was a kid.
Seriously doubt that Tom was playing second fiddle to anyone just because they were on a reality show.
He’s brilliant and accomplished, but definitely didnt command the national stage like his wife did the past few years. That says a lot about what we value in this country, sad but true.
I have enjoyed her during previous seasons for the most part, but this year, she just sort of unraveled before our eyes.
I thoroughly enjoyed Erika until this past season. She seems miserably unhappy, and is taking it out on everyone around her. I sincerely hope her marriage isn’t in trouble – she and Tom have been together for almost 19 years, which is a very long time, and I really got the impression up until this last year that they genuinely respected each other. Wishing her luck.
I agree with your comments. This year I found her defensive and aggressive. She was mad that Teddy used the word “pretend”. I thought that was funny given the “part” she plays in her sequenced jumpsuits. I don’t know any woman who channels her “inner Erika Jayne” But I thought it was really odd that she said Tom hadn’t read her book. If I wrote a book I would want my husband to be the first to read it.
I’ve never been a fan of Erica’s. I know I’m in the minority. Her icy exterior, aggressive behavior and her superior attitude just turn me off. I will miss her fashions though. I never thought thought she brought anything else to the table besides fashion. I don’t wish anything bad for her, but I’m not sorry to see her go.
I totally agree with you.
My thoughts exactly.
Ditto
Well said. And I totally agree.
This is going to be an expensive divorce if Erika’s claim of no pre-nuptial agreement is true. She spends $40,000 per month on the “glam” squad alone – that’s $480,000 a year on hair and makeup! No doubt Tom agrees with Erika that “it’s expensive to be me.”
It got really old watching her play dress up like a barbie doll ALL the time. I hope she figures herself out though with Tom.
Amen sister. Don’t care about the “glam” – it’s all fake and, to quote Erika herself, Pretentious.
Well F__K!!
I will miss her…I like people that “don’t go a long to get along”
Yeah she can be a 1st class Bitch sometimes, maybe loses her “COOL” with her friends, is sometimes annoying, and doesn’t blow bubbles out her ass just to be liked, she is “in your face” and doesn’t talk “dirty” (Dorit) behind your back, yeah that can be intimadating to some people….but that’s what I LOVE about her. Truth doesn’t always come out pretty…catch me on a bad day and I can hurt your feelings too. It’s called emotions, can’t always explain why, but REAL friends get it.
So Miss Erika, take care of your business, I will always love you…
Thank you TT
That’s too bad. She’s had a rough year and she added a lot to the show. I’ll miss her.
Yes! Real friends piss each other off! They have been known to blow smoke up their wazoo to pump them up or save a moment! They are truthful when needed, kind when needed and brutally honest when needed…”real friends” being operative in this situation. Right now as an outsider, looking in, I do care for Erika and whatever she needs from a real friend, I hope she has a few! She’s going to need them. I don’t care what kind of ice queen she can portray for the cameras. She’s a human woman. If rumors are true? Ouch! She’s hurting.
They are in CA…her finances will be fine, maybe not what she’s accustomed to but certainly more than “comfortable”.
I’m with you Ronda. I don’t tolerate simpering, whining people easily. I wish I had the balls to tell some of them to rise up or get out. I will miss her and wish her the best in everything she does.
You know, Ronda, the more I think about it the more I agree with you. I’ve enjoyed her too – especially her no bullshit attitude. I think she’s hurting now – she rarely shows any happiness lately, and I’d like to see what she makes of her future, with or without Tom. If I had any say in the matter, which I don’t, nor should I, I’d like to see Erika Jayne disappear and see more of Erika, without the constant glam squad. To me, having them with her all the time shows a certain insecurity on her part, and she’s a gorgeous woman who doesn’t need layers of makeup or so much fake hair. I’d personally love to see the relaxed Erika – I guarantee she’ll still be stunning. Good luck, Erika – I hope everything turns out well for you. You seem like the kind of woman who always lands on her feet, and that’s a good thing.
They are not in her home only at her Erica Jayne condo, refurbished into office/glam squad/EJ business.
She knows herself, when it was said she should do a dip with Teddy’s, she oh no I’m not there or something. She know herself, I think she is wiser than most realize.
Her whole marriage was BS, Get real, she wouldn’t have looked twice at that bald headed old man if he wasn’t loaded. She doesn’t empower all women, only the gold diggers. The rest of us work for it ourselves!!!!!
I guess we are attracted to our partners in life for different reasons. ..
So I decided before I got married again, my husband would be a Christian and love God, he would have traditional values, he would be kind, caring, have a good sense of humor, life goals, a job….most of all…LOVE ME SOOOOO MUCH! 😉 (Whats not to love!)
Guess what. .I got it plus more!
My friend only wanted someone good looking, tall, dark, and limber, with lots of stamina to screw the shit of her and she would take care of him…..She got it too! They are divorced now, (very hurtful and humiliating, that’s a whole nother story) )she decided to have better life goals when looking for her next one.
So, moral of the story is we all require different things to be successful in life……thats what makes us human.
Be careful what you wish for, you might just get it! 😉
Cheers my fellow TT HOMIES!
Thats a sensitive and deep post. I think theres many reasons someone marries a certain person. That person fufills some need, be it emotional, sexual, financial, either profound or shallow. Or they simply panic that no one else may ask to marry them so they say yes. Ive heard that reason being given as well. I dont judge and just hope for the best,because theyre gonna have to live with the consequences, and nobody really knows but them why they married that person. A couple can look beautiful together but be miserable. Its not all what it shows on the outside.
I get a little tired of people being vicious then excusing themselves by owning it or by claiming to be honest. Erika’s statement about being a bitch to everyone didn’t impress me. Telling “my truth” as though truth comes in several variations also ticks me off. The truth is that her lufe has gotten difficult, she may be losing her private jet accomodation and she is angry. I would immediately understand.
I will miss the fun Erika Jayne who brought something really interesting to the show. She myst have been taking brand management classes from Yolanda.
Me too!!!! My mother in law does that and it’s horrible to watch. She eviscerates people and then claims “at least I’m real”. Really hurtful is more like it. Makes me sick.
So glad she’s gone. Brought nothing but cold ice to the show. 3 seasons with no storyline, was a witch to everyone and was not interesting at all. Now if Bravo was smart they would bring back Brandi and Kim, but too bad that’s not going to happen. On a side note. I’m interested where BH will go next season, they need to views back they would bring the drama, not ratchet drama but something then what the last 3 season have been.
Brandi and Kim??? Kim is mentally ill, I mean that logically and factually, not cruelly (also as a person in recovery) she has ZERO BUSINESS being on tv. it’s not entertainment to watch somebody like that self destruct.
brandi is just trash, which is often “entertainment” to some. But kim should stay MILES away from any tv show.
I agree 100% Shae
Tom is a very wealthy man who has worked hard his whole life. He’s ready to watch the sunset and doesn’t want to do it alone.
I’m guessing Erika has decided to retire Erika Jayne (for a little while) to save her marriage.
I’m sure she still loves him. It’s clear she still respects him. But, financially she’d be stupid to divorce him at this stage in the game… half now or ALL soon. ..
You could be right. Maybe the comment “Erika has left the building” means she is retiring altered ego, Erika Jane.
Just as a point of reference, anyone wanting bravo to bring a known druggie, and a known alcoholic with a propensity toward violence back on our tv screen… has some serious issues in their life, should probably do some serious soul searching. I’m just saying.
Serious issues, soul searching….
Druggies, Alcoholics, and Violence on Bravo! Noooooooo!
Seriously, Get your life together. …
I’m just sayin….. 😉
Ummm, are we talking about the LVP slap… ?laughable hypocrisy. Have you watched any other Bravo shows…? Criminal and much more violent behaviour on pretty much every bravo show….
Oh & god forbid bravo shows relatable REALITY; like loved ones – with alcohol and drug addiction, cos non of us know what its like to have lost someone or worried about someone with something like that. Shock horror!!!!
I’d respect your post if you just said “I hate those asshats”. No need to take some pretend moral high ground… We’re watching Bravo TV.
LOL we should all be ashamed! LOL.
I hate those asshats and Brandi assaulted three people in her last season; Kyle, Eileen, and yes LVP. I’m sure you wouldn’t like someone “playfully” slapping you suddenly in the face. Her brand of mean, like how she treated Joyce, isn’t something I enjoy watching,
Totes respect you disliking them for being asshats.
The rest seems like double standards tho…Technically Kyle put her hands on Brandi first… just like she did in season 2…
And if we’re calling flicking the remaining drops of wine ay the bottom of a glads on Eilleen, & tapping LVPs face as two fire worthy assults, then we also need to fire Kyle and send Rinna to jail for the amsterdam Glass throwing which cut people (GBH).
Not to mention almost all cast members from other cities.
I didn’t like Joyce, but I was uncomfortable with Brandi’s treatment of her too.
My problem with the Brandi slap is that LVP said it wasn’t hard but it was an invasion of her personal space, which I agreed. The problem is that LVP invaded Erika’s personal space by putting her hand in Erika’s lap during the whole pantygate debacle.
Hautehijabi – I love your name!!
I don’t care if she stays or goes. That is how I feel about her. I feel nothing?? #RHOBH will be the same with or without her. She brings nothing, nothing, nothing. Rinna makes me upset and that is something?
You are absolutely correct! Although I’m personally indifferent to Erika, I can understand why people find entertainment in her “glamor” and lifestyle. But she doesn’t add anything interesting to the show’s dynamic. The show isn’t better or worse because of her presence.
Really?!? She loves her persona as EJ. It’s overtaken her. She now pays her 40k /month for her glam squad based on EJ. She might find herself above the Housewives at this point if she is leaving, but it’s what put her on the map more. I follow Billboard but not the dance charts. From what I know, I’m almost positive she has never reached the top 200 on the iTunes chart ever. Which really doesn’t mean much now, but if each sale is through her own company, she makes all the money off that.
I think Top Dance Song (?)
Is a category, had 6 #1 hits plus.
I think Erica Jayne is entertainment for Erica Girardi.
Erica Girardi is different.
I do think she brings quite a bit to RHOBH. She is extremely unique with a lot of money! She’s very protective of her private life, that would and is a hard way to live, especially with cameras rolling. She also has/is an amazing alter persona….ummm? Who has that luxury?
Don’t we all have one of those friends that would be out of our world with a little cash flow? They may still be in our lives but next level?
First Yolanda, now Erika! When you marry old man his heart changes so fast!
But yes,I will miss Erika from previous seasons, and “her” cute gays…
Not particuarly a fan of Erika’s but if the Tom rumors are true then I feel for her. Whatever their arrangement, her fondness for Tom is evident and she has always spoken very highly of him. It must be a very deep cut to realise she’s aged-out of his affection.
I laughed when Erika said she’s rude to everyone! I call BS on that because I remember the season 6 Erika who sat quietly in Bethenny’s Hampton home as the B ripped her pretty mess video. “uncc Erika said NOTHING. That “uncontrollable temper” she displayed with Eileen last season and Teddi this season was no where to be found.
I see you Ms Jayne but that said, I also see what she could bring to the show and I hope things work out for her.
I like Erika and am glad she is leaving
Don’t overstay your welcome.
She can move on with her book and other ventures.
Thai probably means Camille will come back to stir it up with dorit
Teddy will continue to be a weak bore.
Watching Erika for the past the past two season’s is like watching a 70’s Marsha Brady parody…..today I’ll put my hair this way…and tomorrow I’ll twist it the way…..yuck…a boring windbag of nothingness.. $40,000 a month glam squad….what a Kardasian life of self- absorption emptiness and phonyness. Look around..Erika. LVP is saving tortured animals from China, the most animal abusive country in the world. Yolanda helping with Lyme Charities. An actual heart is what makes a person.
Yolanda helping with Lyme Charities. BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH I can’t believe there are still people that believe that. Or that LVP saves tortured animals. She’s practically running a puppy mill. She “rescues” all the pure breeds from shelters and sells them. Allegedly.
Again yet another lie. I’ve been to Vanderpump Dog Rescue. It’s legit – she takes in all breeds, mutts and all. You may not like LVP but her dog rescue isn’t a joke nor is it strictly for pure breeds. smmfh
When you cherry pick dogs from actual rescues and sell them for profit, that is not an animal rescue. She is running a pet store.
When you cherry pick dogs from actual rescues and sell them for profit, that is not an animal rescue. She is running a pet store.
2Tall, where do you think she gets the dogs from? Does she have a dog catcher roaming the streets picking up strays? Does she purchase from a breeder? Or does she get them from actual shelters?
Hint the answer is shelters where she cherry picks the purebreds and any other really cute dogs, and as she says “gives the a makeover” and then “puts them up for adoption.” Then has people fill out lengthy forms and eventually “allows some one to adopt the dog” for an “adoption fee” of around four hundred dollars.
This is the exact same model used by that SPOT rescue place that was suing her an Ken after they had a falling out. They had planned to work together then LVP decided to do a whole line of dog clothes and dog accessories. She also was sued by the dog clothes designer she used before and was accused of disesembling their designs and using them as a pattern for hers.
She also provides grooming services for dogs in the area. All of these revenue streams are used to pay for all the chandeliers in the store and the fancy interior designer and the employees (like Ken, Lisa, and their groomers and sales people) who work for the nonprofit and the rent for the building in the high rent Weho district. And whatever is left goes to “support animals.”
It’s a business where the “adoption fees” are more than most pet stores charge for dogs.
She’s selling dogs.
400 dollars isn’t too bad, especially if it’s a popular breed. She might be a bit of a c*nt, but I’d still rather the rich bitches of LA go to somewhere like hers that deals in unwanted dogs, if they’re not gonna go to their local shelter, than finance the puppy farm business.
Well, damn! That’s disappointing. I actually believed she was rehoming rescues and selling the “stuff”-clothes, leashes, etc. I hate to hear that
That’s because that’s exactly what she’s doing, she’s not running a puppy mill. I too have been there and it’s a bunch of dogs of all types and sizes. She’s doing good.
Really glad to hear that. She just seems so sincere and passionate about animals, and certainly loves her own menagerie. Just hated to think I was that wrong about her
Y’all trippin? If TT made a statement that definitive, any reader of this site knows she likely has the goods. 2Tall4U2, it’s not your being too tall, it’s your bad manners. Who are you that I should believe anything you say? I know TT’s track record over the course of the years. You’re someone typing a snide comment. Nuff said. If you had any real tea you’d have shared it with her privately. Foh with that bullshit.
I love Erika and will miss seeing her. I felt like a lot of that iciness was an act. You’d see it in the interview segments where she’d be all cool or haughty and then crack herself up. Occasionally she’d be light and fun and let down her guard with the other women and that was when it was great to watch her. I’ll miss all the Erika’s… the fashionista dress-up one, the haughty/cool lawyer wife, EJ, and the fun girlfriend one. The one I never understood, though, was the deferential one around Tom. I always wondered if that’s how they really operated. It seemed so stilted. If they are splitting, I hope she finds someone who makes her laugh and lets her be herself…whichever one she really is.
KaraW, I share you insights about Erica except in her marriage. I believe she is very in love with Tom and Tom is very in love with her. They seem to trust each other completely. Plus she knows who she is.
There is a photo behind his desk to his right – a prominent photo with story of Erica Jayne. You can’t miss it. Mixed among his numerous awards and photos there is Erica everywhere. He speaks proudly of her being RHOBH.
As to calling him a old man, that’s horrible, there is YouTube doc on him, hope that doesn’t break a TT rule.
I’m getting the feeling that she and Tom have a “Camille/Kelsey” thing going on. Only Erika is in on it. I think they have had an “arrangement” for a while. I’m thinking Tom wanted her on the show in order to help her build her own career and income so the split will be less taxing on him. The whole dynamic has always seemed very calculated to me.
I was going to say the exact thing! Now that she has ability to provide for herself, he possibly will have reduced spousal support. They are in California where they have very generous divorce settlements.
I hope she’s leaving, perfect timing before she’s completely pigeonholed as a housewife. I think she’ll act or maybe do some soap spots. I like her and if her biggest sin was saying don’t call me a liar, that’s fine. Something tells me she will be just fine. Best of luck Erica!
Let’s be real here, did anyone think she married her husband for “real” love. She was working as a waitress in a cocktail bar, that much is true (couldn’t help myself) when she met him. 99.9% sure they had an agreement and she married him for money/stability. I do think she loved him, but kind of like a granddaughter loves her grandfather. Fortunately grandpa found a new younger version. Tom that old coot, you think he knows these young women are with him for his money and the lifestyle he can bring and not for his boyish good looks?
He insisted, no prenup. I believe differently, for the reason it’s been 19 years and she is a very secure women.
And I’m usually wrong just don’t think I am about this.
Ummmmm…lets see…Erika and Tom have been married a long time. This speaks to love and respect. Some women, myself included, love and attract smart men. Let’s also not forget LVP married her boss and she was working the door of his nightclub.
Jaded, yes!
I think love takes different forms. Maybe it’s not the ‘notices him across the room and falls in love at first sight’ kind and instead she loves him for the stability he provides and his sharp mind? Maybe
Daddy WarbucksTom is a great shag? Who knows. It’s lasted 17/18 years, so there must be something there to keep it going.For some women there is no lubricant like money.
That’s hilarious! I’m going to use that line some time! Thank you. I’m still laughing.
??????
She’s fabulous darling ?
If she’s going, then she’s probably gotten what she’s needed from the franchise.
If she’s sad, then I feel sad for her. Something tells me though, that she’s going to have a fabulous life, with or without Tom.
I was fascinated by Erika her first season. I don’t think anyone had seen anyone like her. This season she was totally different and did act cold and superior to everyone else. She got what she wanted out of the show…. more fame, a spot on Dancing With the Stars and more singing gigs. If Tom kicks her to the curb for a younger model she’ll come out just fine financially but paying people $40,000 a month to fawn all over her and say what she wants to hear is going to burn through that pretty quickly.
I’, wondering if Erika’s marriage wasn’t hurt by the fact she got more and more ghetto. She confuses her tough edge for sophistication. It’s not “classy.”
Agree. She could be very rough around the edges of her pretty mess.
Get rid of Dorit. she sucks and is causing alot of problems..She is so fake. And a piece of shit.And whats with her hair and Bobbypins. Ugly
Lisa Rinna and Erika are the only entertaining people on the show. Rinna said she purposefully took a back seat this season because she wanted Vanderpump and Kyle to earn their paycheck. Those two have became a snooze fest. Unless they bring Brandi back to feud with them, or Kathy Hilton joins the show to air her grievances with Kyle, then both Vanderpump and Kyle need to go. Big waste of money.
The drama this season has been boring. And if Erika leaves the show, RHOBH should just be declared dead.
I hope that Erika and Tom can work things out. Who knows what goes on in other folks relationships? I really don’t cars if she stays or goes. Her appeal to me was that of a cartoon figure. It just doesn’t go that deep after you look at it for a while. What she does is limited by her age and attractiveness I am afraid. She would have been better served by developing her character beyond the surface image, instead she focused more on her alter ego, which is really not all that interesting in the long term.
Exactly! In those 18 years of marriage she could have gotten a psychology degree for example, and opened a fabulous office in Beverly Hills, paid for major advertising and celebrity tweets, etc. And eventually had a legitimately successful business of her own. Even if she just worked 2 or 3 days a week!
or she could have gotten a real estate license, promoted herself with major advertising and mail campaigns with various assistants, and eventually had her own brokerage with a long successful track record.
These are just two ideas . But it could have been a skincare business, and insurance business, interior designing or being a lawyer.
Whatever her “career” interests were she could have blossomed with her husband’s money giving her such a leg up!
Why pour the money into being a singer/performer in sexy outfits? It’s juvenile.
So she could choose whatever she wanted to do as long as you found it acceptable? I’m sure if she had known her decisions needed to pass your judgement she would have consulted you.
Never liked Erika. Could never see the fascination with her stage persona and think she has no real talent. She is smoke and mirrors, and autotune. She writhes around on stage and in her videos — not talent.
She has no real sense of chic. Her glam squad of yes men truly have made a horrible mess of her wardrobe and look. And if she is in charge of hair and wardrobe decisions, that’s another area where she has no style or talent.
Even in the beginning, it seemed as if she and Tom had an arms-length, somewhat cordial relationship. I never saw love or passion. And they seemed to spend very little time together (and I don’t blame that solely on Tom’s career). And the fact that she was annoyed by Tom’s infirmity after his accident says volumes. She had no desire to take care of him or compassion for him.
IMHO, she was looking to get famous. So she got some records and a book deal, and appears at small clubs. I hope she’s happy with that. I just hope we never have to suffer through her hideous get ups, her embarrassing performances and her rude, condescending behavior.
Oh, and I found it infuriating the way Erika treated Teddi. And wish that Teddi didn’t give her an apology she did not deserve.
Erika and Dorit both gaslighted Teddi, claiming Teddi was to blame for their horrid treatment of her. Malarky.
I won’t miss her one iota….her and her “Glamsquad”, #eyeroll. The constant Gucci labels on all of her clothes was simply too much. #LabelWhore
We would be so lucky…and even luckier if Rinna followed suit…she’s hinting at it on twitter which would not be so surprising since shes left with no one if Erika leaves…she was so far up EJ’ ass she didnt really make any allies this season but then again if the paycheck is good Rinna will probably sign back on
But TT also updated her posts to reflect the Kenya changes as well and she was correct. She’s been more right than wrong. She’s like the TMZ of housewives tea.
I think going through a divorce/separation really has caused Erika’s season to suck. Before she was much more light hearted. She’s definitely gone to a dark side.
In Beverly Hills, $40,000 a month is pretty common. I’m sure LVP and Kyle are close to that. Just one Birkin costs that much and up. Pair that with $1500 shoes and some of these women easily spend $100,000 a month.
Dorit has ruined this franchise for me. If she’s back, I’m out. And that creepy ass husband.
Dipstick Dorit killed this season. She really need to exit the stage, along with Greasy PK. Along he has been the sniper behind the bush. When Camille let it know how PK and Dorit was trying to come for her, that pretty much shine the spot light on them as a couple of shit stirrers to me. But, they realize Camille was not a weak link. Dorit only wanted to apologize to Camille, because she exposed them for what they are, sneaky and conniving.
Just an FYI — one birkin does not cost $40,000 and up. Kyle’s birkins cost $10-11K. (No, I don’t know Kyle but I do know what birkins cost.) And most of their shoes are not $1500 — more likely $1K or less.
It just irks me that people spew misinformation. A little google search would provide the correct answers rather than using one’s imagination.
FYI you cannot just walk into Hermes and buy a Birkin which is why most are sold second hand. They sell for $60,000 for a medium sized one.
The animal skin ones sell for over $100,000.
It takes two months for Hermes to make one Birkin and if it gets screwed up, they destroy it and start all over again.
I know quite a bit about Hermes because my grandmother was a big collector in the 1960s and I have all of her scarves and bags.
And if you had actual, personal information instead of googling, you would know this.
I own birkins and multiple other Hermes bags, shawls, wallets and jewelry that I personally purchased. So I know the process of buying as well as the prices quite well. I have personal information.
And resellers do not charge the exorbitant prices you are touting. But you go ahead with your 60 year old bags. smdh
Sure you do.
If you had all that you’d know that you cannot walk into a Hermes store and buy a Birkin.
You also admitted you did a quick google search.
Also, you’d know that vintage Hermes is worth a lot more than the new stuff.
I am happy to provide proof to TT. And I was suggesting you do a google search, dear. I’d love to see you get estimates on the value of your “vintage” bags. I think you’ll be disappointed.
I have an SA at Hermes who provides me with bags on a regular basis over the past 10 plus years. I don’t need you to tell me anything. I was trying to prevent you from spewing misinformation. But I give up, as you are an expert, clearly, because your grandma bought a bag.
I really enjoyed this Hermes schooling session.
???
I can’t find anything about Tom and Erica’s separation or living apart.
Erika’s first season I thought she was glamorous, beautiful, a refreshing addition, and I liked her sass. Not sure why she has changed so much (and not for the better), perhaps she began to believe all the positive things being written about her. She certainly is not the first HW to get too big for her britches. I would be most interested in hearing intel from a production member, it would not surprise me at all if Erika had become difficult during shooting.
Money, or not, Tom Girardi is really cute. Just saying.
I would be enchanted with Tom too if I met him.
Me too. I am a sucker for lawyers and he is … BEYOND good.
Her total vibe at the reunion, turned-away body angles, aloof facial expressions, eye rolling – all seemed to scream that she was separate and apart from the rest of the group and out of there. It was beyond palpable.
At this point, Erika is basically Erika Jayne all the time.
IMO, Erika Girardi only showed up this season during the boat party, when she was wearing the white pantsuit.
EJ has a no fucks, fun vibe or APPEARS to have that vibe. Yet, she goes apeshit when she’s confronted. These two aspects don’t mix well and has made her very off-putting, IMO.
Erika needs a true reality check, maybe go stay with family in Georgia for awhile and come back to planet Earth. Something is up with her. I stopped liking her after she had an exorcism on her so-called “friend” Eileen, in season 7. I mean, went bizerk on the woman for NO REASON. I knew then, that she was hiding “something”.
I wonder if Johnny Mellencamp is still connected enough to influence her pseudo-career.
I’ve not been a fan, but definitely liked her presence in this cast.
With that being said – Raise up and on out Girrrrl! Lol
erika jealous of teddi and camille. sucking up to dorit for some reason this season. would not b at all sorry to see her and her attitude go. no talent no class – very rough – loved to keep bringing up teddi calling her a liar or selective amnesia.
Sadly, I doubt Dorit is going any time soon. Didn’t asshat Cohen say she makes for good tv?
I hope Erika and Tom work it out.
That said, do you think Tom was overly critical of her? Maybe that is why she did not want him to read the book. Maybe that is why she was in such a bad mood at the reunion….because Tom had been critical of her behavior or words this season. Sometimes when your spouse is a lot older, they can be very nit picky and demanding.
Like someone else said above, she should go to a cabin in the woods and read some books and come back to earth. She is proof glam squads, high fashion, paid for music career …..cannot buy you happiness.
No, I think they have a relationship dynamic that most people don’t understand. I think losing Tom will devastate her if this is true. And it is not about the money. It’s about the safety.
She seemed especially angry this season , but I will miss her. She could be hilarious, blunt and fun loving.
With that mink coat on she reminds me of Liberace in that pic. I would rather watch Liberace perform than Erika Jayne.
I would be sad for her to leave the show, even if it is to save her marriage. I enjoy her clothing and think her confessionals are hilarious. I like her frivolous spending of money which takes me away from my own financial struggles.
A skit on SNL reminded me so much of Erica Jane, and it was not flattering. Larry David, a lawyer, introduces his new wife, Cecily Strong to his friends. She not a singer, she’s an “entertainer”, specifically “She’s the kitty ambassador of the twink republic of quaunk”. It’s on Youtube under New Wife SNL, but if Erica Jane saw it it may have burst her bubble on how much of the world perceives her.
