Erika Jayne is ‘really resilient’
Erika Jayne has finally started her stay in Las Vegas and the reality star shares what it took to get there.
A few years ago, EJ was in the public eye as a housewife. She was in the middle of divorcing Tom Girardi. And as if that wasn’t enough, all the shocking scandals began to circulate shortly thereafter. Surprisingly, this season of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, Erika was still filming and trying to share as much as possible.
Even then, some viewers and cast members felt she wasn’t sharing enough. What’s more, Sutton Stracke even called her story bullshit. But now, years later, Tom has had his law license revoked, Erika has been (partially) acquitted and she can finally get on with her life. And that begins with her stay in Las Vegas.
It’s XX$PENSIVE to be EJ!
In a new sit down interview magazine, Erika wasted no time gasping in the face of all the drama she had endured over the past two years. As far as she was taught? She was “really damn resilient,” she said.
She opened up about her toughest year on the reality show – Season 11 – as she struggled with her divorce and the onslaught of negative publicity.
“It’s horrible when you see on TV how you’re struggling and you’ve made bad decisions, like drinking too much or crying,” she said. “But these are self-defeating choices I’ve made. And it lives forever and ever.”
“At some point you give up. You just say, “You know what? It is what it is.’ You can’t fight it.”
The RHOBH veteran said she learned how to deal with the ups and downs this year. Not only did she accept how she felt, she also learned the importance of perspective.
“You fight for things that are necessary. You let go of other things,” she said. “One thing about this whole process is that you’re comfortable in your own skin. You know who you are and what you can and cannot do.”
While EJ learned to be comfortable in her own skin (cue Beyoncé), she was also confident in respecting her boundaries. “I really didn’t care how cold I looked at the moment. It was so reckless; I just knew I had to put one foot in front of the other.”
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills is rumored to be returning in November 2023.
Tell us – what do you think of EJ’s statement that she is resilient? ARE YOU READY FOR YOUR RETURN? AND WILL YOU WILL SEE YOUR SHOW?
An obstacle for Dorit and PK?
What was she thinking?
She can’t take a break.
