Erika Jayne encourages Shannon Beador to stop drinking amid her current life struggles. The RHOBH star also believes RHOC fans are “worn down” by Alexis Bellino’s antics.
Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Erika Jayne appeared on Tamra Judge and Teddi Mellencamp‘s podcast earlier this month, where she opened up about using alcohol to cope with her estranged husband Tom Girardi’s legal drama and the end of their marriage.
The 53-year-old opened up about her struggles while expressing concern over Shannon Beador‘s decision to keep drinking following her September 2023 DUI and hit-and-run arrest.
“I would prefer not to see her drinking while she’s in such a terrible time,” Erika Jayne said of Shannon on Two Ts in a Pod. “I think that that’s counterproductive. So when I see her order a cocktail, I’m like, ‘God, don’t do that,’ if you’re in a bad place.”
According to the Pretty Mess singer, she is concerned about Shannon due to her own experience of leaning on alcohol to cope.
“I was trying to die. I was trying to hurt myself. I was really trying to not wake up and not hear it anymore,” she shared. “I was tired, so I didn’t care. I don’t know what she is feeling. But that’s true, I wanted it to stop — all of it.”
“I made choices to numb myself, bad choices, and I know this, which is why I continue to stay in therapy,” she added.
Meanwhile, Erika also noted that she feels Real Housewives of Orange County viewers are tiring of Alexis Bellino‘s season 18 antics.
On Two Ts in a Pod, the RHOBH star also addressed Alexis’ season 18 behavior, including her threatening to leak videos John Janssen has from the night of Shannon’s DUI.
Since returning to RHOC, Alexis has not only called out her co-stars for giving Shannon too much sympathy following her DUI, but she also threatened to release video footage John has from the night of her DUI. The video footage allegedly shows Shannon almost running over John’s daughter as she attempted to leave his Orange County home.
“I could see why she would wear you down. I mean, I think — look, you know what, you are not the only person. The whole audience is worn down by this woman. And I say that with love and kindness,” Erika said. “They are. You can see it. If you’re feeling it, we’re feeling it, imagine what everybody else is feeling.”
The Real Housewives of Orange County airs on Bravo Thursdays at 9 p.m. ET.
