Erika Jayne and her Real Housewives of Beverly Hills castmates are expected to film the reunion special for their 13th season in two weeks. And during an interview last week, Erika teased what is to come.
While also confirming if she’s been in touch with Denise Richards, 52, since their dramatic face-off, sharing her thoughts on newbie Annemarie Wiley, 40, and reacting to Crystal Kung-Minkoff, 40, suggesting her moments of speaking up have been cut from the show, Erika, 52, revealed if she’ll return for season 14 and shared which of her co-stars will have the most to answer to at the reunion.
“Not me. And that I am really happy about. I’m sure [Andy Cohen] is going to really press [Kyle Richards]. I think Kyle is going to have a hard time again this year,” Erika said during a January 10 interview with Entertainment Tonight. “I think I did all the clearing [up] I need to. I think I’m okay. It’s definitely better than the last few years so I’m good.”
One of Erika’s most tense moments of RHOBH was her spat with Denise. And when asked if they’ve spoken, Erika gave an emphatic, “No!”
Then, when she was told that Denise has since admitted to making an a** out of herself on the show, Erika was happy to hear it.
“Oh, thank you. I’m glad she said that. I didn’t hear that,” she stated.
Erika was then asked about her and Denise’s OnlyFans drama, which featured Erika giving a nod to the fact that both Denise and her daughter, Sami Sheen, 19, have accounts on the adult platform.
“I did not find out who was more profitable on OnlyFans but put up those numbers and let’s see,” she encouraged.
In recent episodes, the dynamic has seemed to be Annemarie vs. everyone else. But when it comes to Erika, she isn’t opposed to the newbie.
“I got along with Annemarie. I did and I just spoke on the phone with her last night. I think she’s a great addition,” Erika shared. “She came in with a strong opinion and that’s what makes Housewives. Whether you like her, whether you don’t, she did her job.”
Because Annemarie has gone on and on about Sutton Stracke‘s esophagus, questioning her health on a number of occasions, many have spoken out against her. Still, in Erika’s opinion, Annemarie is simply doing what she can to navigate the often unruly world of reality television.
“You can’t tell someone what to do. She’s new to the group. She’s finding out what to do,” Erika reasoned.
Regarding Crystal’s suggestion that her moments of “speaking up” have been edited out of RHOBH, Erika said she hadn’t heard of any such thing.
“I don’t know because I’m too busy worried about myself and I’m very loud. So I don’t remember,” she noted.
Also during the interview, Erika was asked if she’d say, “yes,” if approached for a role on season 14.
“Yeah,” she confirmed. “I think it’s one of these things that you have to do what’s right for you at the time, for them and for you — it’s an agreement.”
As for what she believes needs to happen for a more cohesive cast in future episodes, be it a cast shakeup or something else, Erika suggested her co-stars simply need to be more authentic.
“I think if people thought independently and really said how they felt about certain people and weren’t afraid to be themselves, you would probably see some friendships split up, and I use that word friendships lightly … What I know and what people see are two different things,” she said.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills season 13 airs Wednesdays at 8/7c on Bravo.
