'Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' star Erika Jayne is becoming a walking paradox with each passing episode. After watching rika make bold claims of being 'broke' and not having a single penny to her name while she is sitting and sipping on champagne on a vacation with her friends, fans are having an extremely hard time believing the housewife's claims.

Erika's estranged husband Tom Girardi has been accused of embezzling money from the families of the victims of a plane crash. Although the jury is still out on whether Erika was aware of Tom's illegal financial moves, the housewife's portrayal on 'RHOBH' is certainly not helping her case. When the news of Tom's embezzlement broke out, Erika had just filed for a divorce from the disgraced attorney. This caused a wave of panic amongst the ladies who began questioning Erika's innocence and her role in the entire thing. Sutton Stracke was extremely vocal about it and declared that she didn't want to risk her reputation by being associated with her fellow housewife. When Erika heard about it, she openly threatened Sutton and behaved pretty nastily with her.

However, on the recently aired episode of 'RHOBH' Erika seemed to have changed her attitude towards her co-star overnight. After hissing and threatening her, Erika suddenly began being nice to Sutton. She thanked her for paying her rent and even apologized for her earlier behavior. Fans were amused watching Erika sing a different tune after Sutton was the only one who tried helping her out financially. 

Many fans felt that Erika was being nice to Sutton just for money. A fan tweeted, "Erika you’re not slick sis, now that she knows she’s about to be broke broke, she’s trying to make nice with Sutton to see if she’ll get that loan offer again! #RHOBH." "Is Erika sucking up to Sutton because she’s BROKE?? Remember Sutton offered to loan her money #RHOBH," wrote a fan. "Erika is so damn fake I can’t take it. Don’t act like you want to be nice to Sutton. Also don’t be shady, broke people should never shade #RHOBH," commented a fan.



 



 



 



 

Fans are also questioning if Erika is really as broke as she claims to be after noticing that she still has her glam squad. A fan shared, "If Erika has 0 dollars, how does she have a glam team still? Or is she rich people broke? Like down to $10m. #rhobh." "Wait how does Erika still have a makeup artist and assistant if she’s self-proclaimed broke? #RHOBH," wondered a fan. "Erika complaining about being broke while sipping on champagne. #RHOBH," pointed out a fan.
