PHOTOSDid Erika Jayne Just Throw Shade At Her New 'RHOBH' Castmate?
Erika Jayne got real about her Bravo series, the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills and dished on whether or not the cast is getting along. The reality star appeared on The Real on November 11 and spoke about the reports and her thoughts on the newest housewives, Garcelle Beauvais and Sutton Stracke.
Cohost Loni Love asked the 48-year-old about the rumors that the Beverly Hills housewives are all getting along. "Isn't that terrible?" Erika quipped on the show.
The "Roller Coaster" singer explained that the cast wasn't finished filming the current season and that there are issues between the women. "There is conflict. Here is the thing, We're not finished shooting and we're getting ready to go on our trip," she said. "Things are bubbling and loving one another makes it harder when you do have a disagreement. It's honest."
Erika continued, "If I didn't like someone, then I would walk away. But knowing that I care about these women, it hurts when we go home."
The conversation turned to discussing Garcelle and Sutton being added to the show. "How do you feel about the new housewife who joined? The black girl!?" Loni, 48, asked. Garcelle, 52, made history when she was announced as the first African-American castmember on RHOBH.

The Pretty Mess author went out of her way to gush over Garcelle. "I'm so happy for her. I love her! She's direct, she's fun, she's smart, she's bright," she said.
“I am excited and proud to be joining the cast of such a wildly popular and beloved show like The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. As a working actor who has been in the industry for some time, it’s exhilarating to have the opportunity to delve into a new chapter in the entertainment spectrum," the Coming 2 America actress said in a statement at the time of the announcement. "As the first African American Housewife in the Beverly Hills franchise, I am honored and humbled by this awesome opportunity to exemplify the fact that Black Girl Magic lives and thrives in every zip code!”
However, when it came to the other new housewife, Sutton Stracke, she gave a more toned down, "She's cool too," Before adding, "But it's nice to have the diversity," in reference to Garcelle. Sutton and Garcelle joined the cast for the series' 10th season in August 2019. Sutton is a friend of star Lisa Rinna.
