The drama at Dorit Kemsley’s charity event didn’t end despite a pause for Melissa Ethridge’s performance and Lisa Rinna’s emotional breakdown.
On Wednesday’s episode of the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, the ladies discussed Erika Jayne’s legal woes and her claims that Sutton Stracke is a “liability” to Garcelle when Diana Jenkins came out of left field, saying Garcelle is the most guarded Housewife in the group.
“I feel like out of all the women here, you’re the most guarded one,” Diana told Garcelle during Dorit’s Homeless Not Toothless event.
“Like, how did we get from liability to lawyers to me?” Garcelle fired back, adding, “What do you want to know, Diana?”
Diana went on to claim that she “really, really [liked]” Garcelle but felt numerous roadblocks were preventing her from getting to know The Real talk show host.
“I have to work extra hard, and I get nowhere,” she explained. “And I go, like, ‘Well, why am I doing it when she’s shutting me down every single time?’”
Garcelle quickly shut down Diana’s claims and reminded the newbie that she agreed to have a fresh start with her after their chat at Diana’s Christmas party.
“At your Christmas party, I was leaving; I came and said goodbye. And you said to me, ‘I feel like we got [off] on the wrong foot,’” she said. “So you can’t say that I shut you down because I was also open in that conversation.”
“I would just like to know you better differently,” Diana said to which Garcelle replied, “I would like to know you better differently as well, Diana.”
Garcelle later called Diana a “total bitch” in her confessional and urged the newbie to Google her if she wanted to get to know her moving forward.
“When did she try to get to know me?” Garcelle quipped.
“She trashes me in a group text, she comes to my birthday party, and she’s a total bitch,” she continued. “Google me if you want to get to know me. Google me.”

Fast forward to Lisa Rinna’s 70s-themed party for Rinna Beauty, Garcelle again found herself at the center of the drama.
The actress went toe-to-toe with Erika Jayne over Garcelle’s concerns about her drinking while being on anxiety and depression medication.
Erika accused Garcelle of pushing the narrative that she has a drinking problem.
“I don’t have a drinking problem,” Garcelle said to which Erika fired back, “Neither do I, but you tried to push it.”
Garcelle admitted that she was worried that Erika was developing a drinking problem amid the recent “instances” where she got “out of control.”
“Three,” Erika clarified about the number of “out of control instances” that occurred. “Excuse me, you know exactly what I’ve been going through, and I told you straight up what happened, but you tried to push that false narrative that I had a problem.”
The Real host denied pushing the “narrative” that Erika had a drinking problem and claimed that she only wanted to make sure Erika found the right balance between her “medicine and drink ratio.”
Erika noted that Garcelle would be the last to know if she had a real problem saying that Kyle Richards, Dorit Kemsley, and Lisa Rinna would be the first to know.
Garcelle acknowledged that she was aware of that but admitted she did bring her concerns to various women in the group. Erika wondered if Garcelle’s comments were out of general concern or to make her look bad.
“Erika, I don’t have to make you look bad; you can do that on your own,” Garcelle quipped. Erika went on to call Garcelle a “liar” and said she thinks Garcelle has an “ulterior motive.”
This claim pissed Garcelle off. She noted that Erika’s drinking problem doesn’t affect her life at all – good or bad. Erika said it’s her life to “destroy or build,” to which Garcelle said: “Then destroy it.”
“Blow up your life; it’s your prerogative,” Garcelle said in her confessional of Erika.
