Erika Jayne<\/strong><\/a> reflected on her mental state after getting dragged into estranged husband Tom Girardi<\/strong><\/a>\u2019s legal troubles.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere was nothing hopeful on the horizon for years. That\u2019s when you\u2019re like, \u2018Well why am here?\u2019\u201d Erika, 52, said during her two-part Bravo special Bet It All on Blonde<\/em><\/a>, which premiered on Wednesday, March 6. \u201cI thought about killing myself many a times.\u201d<\/p>\n

Erika was named alongside Tom, 84, in a December 2020 fraud and embezzlement lawsuit<\/a> in which the disgraced lawyer and his then-firm, Girardi and Keese, were accused of misusing $2 million in settlement funds meant for the victims of a plane crash. (Erika had filed for divorce<\/a> from Tom one month prior. The divorce has still not been finalized.)<\/p>\n

While she has vehemently denied any involvement, Erika has been put through the wringer during multiple seasons of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills<\/em><\/a> with the woman speculating how much knowledge she had about Tom\u2019s wrongdoings.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tPat the \u2026 divorce papers. After Erika Jayne went to court to end her marriage to Tom Girardi, Bravo fans were shocked to learn that what seemed like one of the strongest couples in Real Housewives history was not so picture-perfect after all. The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star announced in November 2020 that [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s a whole lotta judgement and accusations repeatedly over and over again,\u201d Erika recalled during Wednesday\u2019s docuseries. \u201cI had to defend myself every day.\u201d<\/p>\n

Erika also revealed she spoke with her son, Tommy Zizzo<\/strong>, about her suicidal thoughts. (She shares Tommy with ex-husband Thomas Zizzo<\/strong>.)<\/p>\n

\u201cI would talk to my son, I was like, \u2018You know, I don\u2019t wanna do this. I don\u2019t wanna be here,\u2019\u201d she continued. \u201cHe\u2019s like, \u2018That\u2019s great, but here\u2019s what you\u2019re gonna do. You\u2019re gonna dig your heels in and you\u2019re gonna fight like a motherf\u2014ker, and you\u2019re going to show everyone that they were wrong, and you were right and then we can have this conversation after that. But until then you\u2019re going to fight.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

While Bet It All on Blonde<\/em> was mainly about the 30 days leading up to Erika\u2019s Las Vegas residency of the same name, she also discussed how Tom\u2019s ongoing legal issues have impacted the past few years of her life.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tShe may be an enigma, wrapped in a riddle and cash, but sometimes, Erika Jayne Girardi gets candid about her life beyond the Bravo cameras. The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star, who shares an adult son with her first husband, met her second husband, Tom Girardi, in the \u201890s when she was working at [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cBetween divorce, competency, hearings and indictments and losing everything in the last three years have sucked,\u201d she said at one point during the docuseries. Most of the conversations regarding Tom took place during the first of the two episodes.<\/p>\n
