If Erika wasn’t involved, why did she get so upset when the info on Tom calling her slipped out on camera?  If she is so innocent, what would be the problem with her saying she couldn’t take it anymore, moved out, doesn’t receive any monies from Tom, but the poor dear keeps calling her and asking her to come back and it breaks her heart?

Almost all of us think Erika's lying to a degree. She wouldn't want to be caught lying and scheming a coverup either. It looks like she's playing the part of someone who had enough of her husband mistreating her, that the divorce has nothing to do with the scandal, that the timing was pure coincidence, that she has no money, and that Tom is done with her, won't help her. Him calling her contradicts what she's said. It would make it look more like the divorce being a sham to hide assets is a very real possibility. 

I'm not saying no way would she have known any of it though. It's absolutely possible she's more guilty than I'm guessing at this point.

Most people on camera wear heavy makeup. Many of them still don't look like Erika. Thanks to a combination of genetics, lifestyle, and Tom's money to have the best upkeep, Erika has really beautiful skin. There are other Housewives and celebs who don't have skin as nice as hers. Some of them have larger pores, breakouts, not as youthful, etc. 

Vicky Gunvalson of OC and Ramona Singer of NY have gawdawful skin... both have bumps, creases, sags, wrinkles- especially bumps, what do all those lumpy bumps come from?

My guess is she wasn't involved in the crime, but she is involved in the coverup. 

Erika should remember that Teresa Giudice wound up in jail because the judge got frustrated with the deceptive, incomplete bankruptcy filings. Word at the time was that Teresa was going to get probation but when the Giudices filed yet another incomplete listing of assets the judge brought down the hammer.

Those bumps could be acne or acne scarring.

Especially when her own llc or company accepted MILLIONS from his Company... 

Her accepting it doesnt mean she knows the origin of his funds. Not by a longshot.

The man's firm won over $100MM in one case years ago. Since then its just grown. What's the difference if he invested in his wife's performance company, or some Tarek & Christina house flipper company to buy/sell mansions. I mean if the funds were legit it would be a smart move....take his personal $$, invest in his wife's company (she makes money and pays herself), who in turn repays him with interest (he makes more money)...the whole time their personal lives benefit. That's what makes the world go round. IF his funds were legit.

Do we all really think Harry's acting proceeds didn't fund Lisa's boutiques years ago? Or Mauricios money isnt funding all of Kyle's pet projects?

But her claiming she knows nothing gets called into question. couple this with her being on some of his actual boards crates doubts and holes in her story of not knowing “Anything”. So she doesn’t know the workings of her own companies? She’s doesn’t pay attention to what’s going on on boards she is sitting on with his companies? She knew he was being sued for nonpayments .. (she even said she was asking questions later about it and continued to accept “loans” from his company… all you need to do is create lines from him to her about those “loans” and misappropriated monies and the lavish “gifts” and how and when and how much he was giving her to be Erika Jayne.  She’s gonna end up having to make restitutions especially now that the courts say the victims can go after her   
 

 

this isn’t like the other housewives who had no connections to their husbands business dealings at all. She was actively on not only his boards but her own companies that accepted money from his company. She has also admitted he funded her Erika Jane stage shows use of jets for her own personal business etc etc 

 

add to the fact that once he “cut her off” aka she walked out on him. she no longer could “afford” her apt or other things looks incredibly shady. Especially if she had her own company that was supposedly paying for these things

I think you are missing the issue. For the purpose of getting the money back. It doesn’t matter whether Erika knew it was fraudulently obtained. Tom had no legal right to any of the money she received from him so she is on the hook and she is the one with deep pockets since Tom has no earning potential. She has already made a claim that some lawsuits should not be transferred to another firm because she wants them to remain an asset she can lay a claim to.

Erika doesn’t fear jail because that isn’t probable. She realizes that any funds left will be paid to the creditors and more than likely she will be required to repay any of the purported loans and gifts of valuable stuff like jewelry and artwork.  Ruth Madoff kept nothing except a relatively small amount that she had inherited from her parents but all of her clothing, furs, jewelry, personal items etc. were auctioned and used to pay back those Madoff had swindled. And Erika is arguably in a worst position than Ruth Madoff because she will probably have liens against her future earnings and Ruth realistically had no future earnings.

I would be very surprised if Erika ever gets charged with anything criminal IF she cooperates and tells the truth to authorities.   If she was loaned stolen  money and she has it, she would  need to give it to the creditors.  You can't receive a of gift stolen property and claim the gifting makes it yours and legal.

It’s her trying to act like she doesn’t know how banking works and trying to play the bimbo oh what’s a bank card I don’t know how companies  “work”. I’m just a lil o housewife that doesn’t know anything to get out of repayment is what I am most pissed about. Girl you have your own whole company you know how financially things work. You weren’t just some housewife that was “taken care of” she is hiding money it’s obvious

Not sure it would be such a smart move since I'd bet a paycheck that Erika's company never made a profit.  It might be a good way to launder money but make money? Not so much.

What strikes me after watching  Theb Housewife and the Hustler, is that it was moms working together to protect a badly-injured son from being ripped off by Tom, who finally got him busted.

 

I love how those two women are like the anti-housewives. They're not filthy rich and they have a real friendship that they show by sincerely supporting each other through hard times.

Interesting time to set up a new company: 

https://opencorporates.com/companies/us_ca/C4693972

Rinna has the same accounting firm and she set up two corporations using him as well.

One is called Just Own It and seems to be for her beauty products given the trademark applications for Lisa Rinna Lips - I find it astounding that anyone thinks those lips are attractive rather than a total plastic fail but okay. The other dates from 2014.

Erika is the only classic gold digger in the cast. Crystal is not as much of a stereotype but she also married an older very successful rich man. 
 

Kathy married a wealthy man and was trained to marry one but her husband was more or less the same age and they seemed to have had a long relatively happy marriage. As the saying goes, it’s just as easy to fall in love with a rich man as a poor one. I don’t particularly like her shtick but she isn’t a trophy wife.

Sutton and her ex were teenage sweethearts and she married him before he was rich.  She was a SAHM but why not. 

Rinna is many things and whatever the marriage has devolved into in terms of it being an arrangement, I think it was genuine love at the beginning or as much love as Rinna’s shriveled heart can muster. 🙄

Mauricio was poor when Kyle married him and if anything Mauricio could be said to have married her for her Hilton connection since his employment at Hilton & Hyland gave him his start. I think the initial bad blood between the sisters was when Mauricio left to form The Agency. I also think Kyle’s presence on the show and social media helped with the success of The Agency. I don’t think Mauricio bankrolled any vanity projects for her as the store in Beverly Hills was originally just a licensing arrangement with the woman who actually owned the store.

I think this week's episode (judging from the ads) is the one where she threatens someone (like the low-class dockside bully she is) when they call her a liar.   As if she wields all this clout and power.

If it’s a video of her in Chicago (or her other theatrical “performance” with her mascara smeared face), that would be in violation of the Geneva Convention’s stance on torture.  Erika could tack on “war crime” to her ever evolving rap sheet.

I don't have my hopes up that the scene with Erika saying "If you call me a liar again, I'm coming for you" is directed at Sutton.   Bravo teases these things to suck us in and then it turns out not to be what it looks like in the previews. But I'm hoping this time it is real and Sutton responds without resorting to tears.

Yeah, it seems like Sutton would react differently in a situation where she felt like she knew what was going on or was suspicious like she is now. In those cases she maybe doesn't feel so personally attacked because it's obviously more about the other person.

You know, it would not surprise me if she's relating to Sutton what she said to the bankruptcy court's investigating attorney (the one all over social media), who has hinted on more than one occasion that he believes she is not being truthful.  And she DID "come after him" so to speak, trying to get him removed.  I think you may be on to something!
