Erika Jayne is opening up about how difficult her life has been in the midst of estranged husband Tom Girardi‘s legal battle over embezzlement allegations.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star is the focus of a two-hour documentary which debuted Wednesday on Peacock. In the doc, called Erika Jayne: Bet It All on Blonde, the 52-year-old gets distressingly candid about her mental health.
Of course, Tom is the now-disbarred lawyer accused of stealing more than $15 million worth of client funds from the Lion Air Flight 610 crash settlement for his personal use. As his legal battled bubbled up over the last couple years, Erika has been in the thick of it. And the reality TV veteran hasn’t liked it one bit.

Speaking candidly in the new doc, Jayne disturbingly reveals that she thought about suicide “many times” amid her divorce, the lawsuit, and the embezzlement allegations:
OMG…
Thankfully, Erika’s 30-year-old son Tommy Zizzo, who she had from a previous relationship, sat her down and very explicitly talked her out of it:
Wow. Clearly he loves his momma a lot.
Of course, Erika has long denied that she had anything to do with Tom’s embezzlement. In August of 2022, that denial was made official, as it were, when she was cleared of wrongdoing in the criminal case. But that still hasn’t stopped the emotions from overflowing. And she’s still fighting some civil battles, leading to the court of public opinion still being foisted upon her.
