That features The Actual Housewives of Beverly Hills, which is streaming in its entirety with a Peacock subscription. Erika Jayne has been on that present for a very long time, and has had some very public struggles together with her ongoing divorce from Tom Girardi. However why hasn’t it occurred after years? The most recent replace signifies it’d get dropped altogether, let’s break it down.
Erika Jayne filed for divorce again in 2020 after over twenty years of marriage, however the proceedings have been denied a lot of instances. Us Weekly experiences {that a} listening to on the case occurred June twenty sixth, however no consultant from Girardi confirmed. What’s extra, the outlet claims that the trial is susceptible to being thrown out… probably as a result of his dementia and declining psychological capabilities.
Again when he was in higher well being, Girardi claimed that she knew concerning the authorized points coming earlier than she left him. This query was a giant plot level on RHOBH, as was Jayne’s struggle to maintain costly items like diamond earrings.
The “Fairly Mess” singer has been in scorching water in recent times, as her husband was accused of misappropriate funds from his authorized purchasers. Whereas Jayne went full villain in Season 12 as she defended herself and separated from Girardi, a lot of the costs in opposition to her particularly have been dropped. Though now it looks as if her divorce may not really occur as deliberate.
Girardi’s dementia has resulted him in a reminiscence care facility, in addition to the topic of a conservatorship. If Us Weekly’s sources are to be believed, then which may consequence within the divorce case being tossed out when the groups reconvene on August 1st.
One among Jayne’s legal professionals beforehand put doubt into the thought of the divorce really going via whereas Girardi’s psychological well being is struggling. Jim Wilkes spoke to The Solar (through Us Weekly), and was quoted saying:

After all, it stays to be seen what the choose presiding over the case will say once they reconvene in August. But when even Erika Jayne’s personal legal professionals are uncertain, maybe we cannot see the divorce really come to fruition. In actual fact, Wilkes claimed that it may need to attend till Tom Girardi passes away.
The Bravosphere is certainly being attentive to this ongoing case, and are curious to see if it components into the plot of The Actual Housewives of Beverly Hills when it returns for Season 15. After a couple of years within the scorching seat Erika Jayne was capable of have a little bit of a comeback final 12 months, however I’ve to imagine that no matter divorce updates occur will probably be addressed.
