Garcelle Beauvais shared how proud she is of Jax

Garcelled admitted in a confessional that the interaction did fall short of her expectations in one sense. "I wish Erika had been the one to approach Jax because she's the adult. She's the one in the wrong. But I'm glad Jax felt confident enough to go talk to her himself," she noted.

What happened between Erika Girardi and Jax?

Girardi faced strong criticism after drunkenly cursing out Beauvais' then 14-year-old son Jax at a birthday party last year. After the altercation occurred, Garcelle asked to have a larger conversation about what happened so the actress said she could "understand" why it happened.

"I understand we were all having a good time at my birthday party. I understand that your liquor level was beyond," she said to Girardi, adding "Under no circumstances, though, can you disrespect not only a kid, but my kid."

Girardi, in turn, admitted to her wrongdoings and promptly apologized to her castmate. "I agree and take full responsibility. And you know what? I was s— talking and treating the kids like they were adults. And I was wrong. So, I fully apologize," she said, adding "I also want to say this: it didn't come from a bad place. It wasn't vicious," she continued. "It was just wrong."

Reason for Erika Girardi's erratic behavior

Garcelle brought up how her costar had recently been mixing her medication with alcohol. She suggested that there's "gotta be a balance of the meds and the cocktails." In defense of her actions, Girardi explained how she was on a "new medication," and she was still adjusting to it.

"Here's the thing: I've had a change in medication, so it makes me tired and then it makes me spike and stuff like that. And it's new, so, that's what you're seeing," she said, adding "But at your party, I had a few too many sneaky margaritas."
