Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Erika Jayne had a fiery response to Jennifer Lawrence calling her “evil”.
Lawrence, who is famously a huge fan of the long-running reality show, said in a recent interview: “Erika is evil. I would go as far as to say, she needs a publicist ASAP.”
Appearing on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen Wednesday (14 September), Jayne invited Lawrence down to the set to “mix it up” with them.
“You know, it’s easy to label people when they are at their absolute lowest going through something in real time on television,” Jayne told the host.
“But anytime that she would like to come on down and mix it up with us, I’m sure that we could unmask the ugly parts of her personality as well,” she continued.

“Even if Erika is innocent, her refusing to give anything back is beyond me.”
A court has since ordered Jayne to give up the earrings.
Jayne filed for divorce in November 2020 after 21 years of marriage to Girardi, who was disbarred earlier this year and diagnosed with Alzheimer’s.
