RHOBH: Prosecutors Deny That Erika Jaynes Charges Were Dismissed
Even though The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills fans are celebrating Erika Jayne's case being dismissed, a lawyer has revealed that viewers may not want to get too excited about the outcome. News broke over the weekend about Erika being officially dismissed of all charges in her estranged husband Tom Girardi's $2 million lawsuits. While the singer was thrilled, it still may not be the end of her legal troubles.
Erika and Tom's love affair has been questionable from the start as they initially met back in 1998 when she was a waitress. Tom always had power since he was a founding partner of the law firm Girardi & Keese, which is now bankrupt. Even amidst their 32-year age difference, the couple seemed to live a pretty great marriage that was filled with mutual respect. Sadly, RHOBH fans learned last season that wasn't the case. In November of 2020, after over 20 years of marriage, Erika filed for divorce from Tom on election day shortly after both were accused of embezzling $2 million in settlement funds.
