RHOBH production sources told TMZ that the producers cannot get enough of Erika Jayne and Tom Girardi's legal and financial issues, and that the show could skip the usual break between seasons. According to the insiders, the reality show is gearing up to begin production on season 12 for a quick turnaround.

The publication reported that shooting will begin as soon as next week for some of the cast as producers think that the singer's storyline is too good to miss out on.

He asked Jayne why she didn't leave her husband sooner. "Where was I going?" she replied. "I know what you make on this show. Did you feel you were held captive?" Cohen seemingly retorted.
