Los Angeles, CA – Reality TV star Erika Jayne has officially sold her luxurious Pasadena mansion, a significant step in the ongoing efforts to resolve the massive legal and financial troubles stemming from her estranged husband Tom Girardi’s alleged misconduct.
The opulent estate, once valued at over $13 million, had been on the market for several months before finally being sold at a reduced price. The property, known for its old-Hollywood charm and grand architectural details, was a centerpiece in Erika’s public life, often featured on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.
The sale comes amid mounting legal pressure following the downfall of Tom Girardi, a once-powerful trial attorney accused of embezzling millions of dollars from vulnerable clients — including orphans, widows, and burn victims. As federal investigations and civil lawsuits continue to unfold, Erika has maintained that she was unaware of her husband’s alleged financial crimes.
According to court documents, proceeds from the sale will be directed toward settling debts and potentially compensating victims of Girardi’s alleged fraud. Erika, who filed for divorce in 2020, has faced both public scrutiny and legal questioning over her finances and her role — if any — in Girardi's business dealings.
Despite the personal and legal turmoil, Erika has remained vocal about seeking a fresh start. In interviews, she has expressed a desire to move forward with her life while cooperating fully with the legal process. The sale of the Pasadena mansion marks a symbolic and financial turning point in that journey.
As the legal saga continues to unfold, Erika Jayne’s next chapter remains uncertain — but one thing is clear: the glamourous facade of Beverly Hills wealth has been deeply shaken by a story of betrayal, justice, and redemption.
A La Quinta, California, home owned by “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star Erika Jayne’s estranged — and legally embattled — husband is in escrow, The Post can exclusively reveal.
Jayne displayed visible shock when fellow “Real Housewives” stars Kyle Richards and Crystal Kung Minkoff mistakenly said the home owned by Tom Girardi had sold in 2018.
“How can [Tom Girardi] sell that without telling me?” the 50-year-old “XXPEN$IVE” singer reacted in the Aug. 4 episode.
But the 3-bedroom, 3½-bathroom house — which an apparently stunned Jayne also said she has “never been in” — hadn’t actually sold; in fact, the 3,700-square-foot house had not sold since 2006, property records show.
The forced bankruptcy sale listing first went up on June 22, property records show.
Listing broker Steve Enlow of Desert Sands Realty told The Post the house had multiple offers and is now in escrow — for the second time after the first deal fell through — and awaiting court approval.
Everything in the 85-year-old lawyer’s house, including the furniture, is included in the sale, said Enlow.
The mystery intensified in the recent episode of “RHOBH” when Jayne additionally claimed that she did not know the address of the La Quinta house.
“I asked about the home or property in La Quinta, and I never got a straight answer,” Jayne said on the show during a discussion when she opened up to her castmates about her ex’s legal woes.
The home, listed for $1.25 million, is held under G&L Aviation LLC, of which he owns 50% with Walter Lack of Engstrom Lipscomb & Lack LLP, but Girardi is considered to be the full owner of the house, according to a March 24 asset summary filed with the US Bankruptcy Court.
Girardi faces embezzlement claims due to alleged misuse of funds from the Lion Air Flight 610 crash settlement with Boeing, and a judge ruled last month that Jayne could be required to pay money to victims.
Girardi is under conservatorship amid his major neurocognitive disorder diagnosis. Jayne, who has accused Girardi of infidelity, has been hiding out at an LA rental, The Post reported.
“You’re welcome over to my new tiny baby dollhouse,” Jayne said on the show. “It’s a rental, it’s cute.”
Meanwhile, their marital home in Pasadena is also in a forced bankruptcy sale, asking under $10 million.
The couple is the focus of a documentary, “The Housewife and the Hustler,” which was released on Hulu this summer.
