With 'own it' as her motto, Lisa Rinna has certainly stirred the pot way too many times in the past. The 'Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' star is notorious for always putting her fellow housewives on blast whenever she suspects that something fishy is happening in their lives. The previous season Lisa turned on her friend of over two decades- Denise Richards when Brandi Glanville came out with claims of hooking up with Denise.

Lisa called out Denise and didn't believe even for a second that Denise was innocent. She gave a lot of grief to Denise for trying to defend herself against the rumors being spread by Brandi about their alleged hookup. So, when her co-star Erika Jayne found herself tangled in a messy legal situation with allegations of being involved in her husband- Tom Girardi's money embezzlement case, Lisa immediately jumped to her friend's rescue.

Another fan wrote, "I can’t stand Lisa why is she riding so hard for Erika and her bullsh*t? #RHOBH." "#RHOBH Why is Lisa Rinna so overprotective of Erika Girardi and her legal issues?
