Erika Jayne Reveals She Feels ‘Contempt’ for Tom Girardi

Erika Jayne’s previous relationship with Tom Girardi faced a great deal of scrutiny. From the outside looking in, it seemed like the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star was a gold digger, plain and simple. Of course, any relationship is more complicated than that.

But Tom’s later legal controversies certainly didn’t help the optics. Tom faced accusations of wire fraud and stealing from his clients. To this day, commentators debate the extent to which Erika involved herself in Tom’s business dealings.

Much to Erika’s relief, a judge determined she didn’t know about Tom’s business dealings. Even if that assessment is true, Erika certainly knew of Tom’s other less-than-moral dealings.

Erika Jayne says she turned a “blind eye” to Tom Girardi’s infidelity

Erika recently appeared on the August 23 episode of Two Ts In A Pod. While cohosting for the first time, the Beverly Hills star looked back on her relationship with Tom. She admitted to turning a “blind eye” to Tom’s behavior in many instances – including his cheating – all to preserve an image of perfection in her private and public life.

“You start ignoring the snide comments or you start ignoring the fights,” she said. “You just kind of want to keep the peace. I don’t know if that’s turning a blind eye. I mean, in some cases, sure. I definitely looked the other way when I knew Tom had other women in his life just because I didn’t feel like dealing with it.”

Nevertheless, over time, her “indifference” became “contempt,” and, “when you have contempt in a relationship, it’s over,” according to Erika. She further explained, “I do believe that there was a lot of contempt in my relationship from both parties at the end.”

However, it was more complicated than that. As Erika further laid out: “Because I often felt like my marriage was pushed to the side, and it wasn’t real. And there’s no possible way you could love this man [but] actually, I did.” Anonymous sources confirmed Tom’s alleged infidelity. As if the couple didn’t have enough reasons to split in the first place.

Real Housewives of Beverly Hills is streaming on Peacock.
