Erika Jayne Reacts to Ex Tom Girardi’s Prison Sentence

Erika Jayne, star of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, spoke out about the emotional impact of her ex-husband Tom Girardi’s recent prison sentence while she was performing in London. Girardi, a former prominent attorney, was convicted of wire fraud and embezzling over $15 million from his clients, leading to a sentence of seven years and three months in federal prison along with restitution payments. Jayne revealed she received the news just minutes before her second show, which affected her ability to fully engage with the audience, though she maintained that the crowd still loved her performance. Despite the emotional challenge, she described being on stage as her happiest place and expressed disappointment that a small part of her was feeling sorry for herself during the show. Girardi’s sentencing followed a high-profile legal case involving embezzlement tied to settlement funds, and his health conditions, including memory loss, were considered but ultimately did not prevent the prison sentence. Jayne had filed for divorce from Girardi in 2020 and was cleared of any wrongdoing related to the embezzlement allegations.
