Real Housewives of Beverly Hills fans were shocked to learn that Erika Jayne (a.k.a. Erika Girardi) filed to divorce her husband, Tom Girardi, after 21 years of marriage. Jayne reportedly filed for the dissolution of marriage in Los Angeles County Courts. RHOBH fans have subsequently taken to Twitter to share their thoughts about this surprising news.
“After much consideration, I have decided to end my marriage to Tom Girardi,” Jayne told E! News in a statement. “This is not a step taken lightly or easily. I have great love and respect for Tom and for our years and the lives we have built together. It is my absolute wish to proceed through this process with respect and with the privacy that both Tom and I deserved. I request others give us that privacy as well.” Jayne and Girardi did not have any children together. Although, the reality star does have an adult son from a previous relationship. As for spousal support in this case, it’s still to be determined.

Fans thought that Jayne and Girardi were in it for the long haul. Considering that Girardi was largely supportive of the reality star’s turn on Broadway during the most recent season of RHOBH (a fact that meant a lot to the star), it was indeed surprising to hear that they have since split.ย
