American actor and Real Housewives fan Jon Hamm wants RHOBH’s Erika Jayne to return the $750,000 diamond earrings she received as a gift from her estranged husband, Tom Girardi. The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star’s estranged husband bought the expensive earrings with allegedly stolen settlement funds. Thus, Jon thinks it is only right that Erika returns the earrings.
What Jon Hamm Thinks Of RHOBH’s Erika Jayne And The Earrings
During an appearance on The Howard Stern Show on Sirius XM, Jon bore his mind on the issue. The Mad Men alum said:
“You just want to shake her and go, ‘Honey, they were never yours.’ Give the back.”Â
The 51-year-old actor also questioned if the value of the earrings should be $750,000 or $1.3 million. However, he was resolute in his belief that Erika should return them.
The Earrings Value
Erika’s estranged husband, Tom Girardi, bought the earrings for $750,000 in 2007. However, the luxe items have increased in worth since then and are now valued at $1.3 million.
Erika And The Earrings
For a long time, there has been a public debate over whether Erika returns the earring or not. In January 2022, the trustee in Tom’s case filed a claim requesting for the diamond earrings’ return. The trustee alleged that Tom bought the jewelry with the money deposited in a client trust account at Tom’s old law firm, Girardi & Keese.
However, despite a public debate about whether she should return the earrings or not, Erika said in court documents that she would wait for investigation results before giving them back.
In June, a Los Angeles judge ruled that Erika must return the jewelry since Tom bought them with funds he misappropriated. However, the reality TV star appealed the ruling in July, determined to keep the earrings.
RHOBH’s Erika Jayne, who was found innocent of any involvement in Tom’s financial crimes, seems determined to keep the jewelry. Though Jon believes it is only right that Erika returns the earrings, he has to pray she loses her appeal to get his wish.
