Lisa Vanderpump is calling out the cast of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills for staying silent over the current legal drama that Erika Girardi and her estranged husband Tom Girardi are currently facing.
A Twitter user pointed out the issue on Wednesday, June 16, writing, “Where’s the outrage???? Kyle, Rinna, Dorit, Teddi have vilified Lisa Vanderpump for something she DID NOT DO for 3 yrs by going on talk shows, podcasts, interviews, RHOBH, but when it comes to Erika stealing/withholding funds from victims, spending it on glamor, they’re SILENT!!!”
“It’s unbelievable really,” Vanderpump replied the following day, according to Us Weekly.
Vanderpump quit RHOBH after she fell out with her co-stars during the show’s ninth season. If you recall, Vanderpump found herself in the middle of a divide when her Vanderpump Dogs staff member John Blizzard claimed to Kyle Richards and Teddi Mellencamp that Dorit Kemsley’s former adopted puppy wound up at a kill shelter.
Erika and Tom made headlines in November 2020 when the Bravo reality star filed for divorce after 20 years of marriage. The following month, the estranged couple was sued for fraud and embezzlement.
In addition to accusing them of swindling $2 million in settlement funds intended for families of victims of a 2018 plane crash, class action firm Edelson PC claimed in federal court documents that the divorce was “simply a sham attempt to fraudulently protect Tom’s and Erika’s money from those that seek to collect on debts owed by Tom and his law firm.”
Tom faced a second lawsuit later that month, alleging that his company breached a written agreement and conversation with Wells Fargo Vendor Financial Services. The bank sought immediate payment on the $882,715 outstanding bill.
The 82-yar-old was placed under a temporary conservatorship in February when his brother assumed control of his daily activities and personal care. One of Tom’s attorneys claimed in court in December 2020 that he was hospitalized for a “serious illness,” raising questions about his mental competency. Court documents revealed in March that Tom was diagnosed with late-onset Alzheimer’s and dementia.
