Howard Stern questioned Andy Cohen on how Erika Jayne has the “money” to hire a glam team amid her estranged husband Tom Girardi’s prison sentence. The 71-year-old also shared his thoughts on the new season of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.

In 2020, Tom (a former attorney) was accused of embezzling millions from his clients. Two years later, he was disbarred. Two years after that, a jury found Tom guilty of stealing from his clients, and he’s now in prison. Though Erika hasn’t been tied to any involvement in Tom’s crimes, she’s facing various lawsuits.

On The Howard Stern Show, Howard praised Andy over the new season of RHOBH.

“I’m going to congratulate you. So my wife and I were watching Beverly Hills Housewives. I said, we got to call Andy and tell him what a genius he is to put this Rachel Zoe on,” said the host, referring to the newbie castmate. “A brilliant, brilliant opener for the season. And I’m all in.”

Andy responded, “Yes, keep your eye on it, Howard. It really gets cooking once they go to Sedona.”

Howard then praised “this crew of women you’ve put together, even this new gal [Amanda Frances].”

“She’s divisive in the group,” said Andy.

“How does Erika Jayne — she went through a horrible thing with her husband and all this — how does she have money to hire a glam team?” asked Howard.

“You know what, she’s nine seasons into this show. So she’s making money from the show. She’s not been found guilty in any of this,” Andy answered. “She’s got a big civil trial coming up, I think next year. I mean, yeah, she’s not living under Tom Girardi’s money, but I think she performs, I think she makes personal appearances. So I think she is doing okay.”

Howard said he also loves “Sutton in those outfits.”

“What a show,” Howard added. “Andy’s really outdone himself this season.”

New episodes of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills air Thursday nights on Bravo. As of this year, Erika has surpassed the number of seasons of her ex-co-star Lisa Vanderpump.
