Erika Jayne says nobody can fill Lisa  Rinna’s place on RHOBH amid news of her pal’s shock exit

Erika Jayne revealed she believes Lisa Rinna is an irreplaceable member of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, following news of her pal’s exit from the hit reality show.

Just one day after confirming she will not be returning to her beloved Bravo series after eight years of stirring the pot, the Melrose Place alum’s best friend, 51, reacted to the announcement. 

When asked how producers will ‘fill’ the mother-of-two’s shoes, Jayne replied: ‘They can’t. She’s the G.O.A.T. [Greatest of All Time]. She’s the f**king G.O.A.T.’

The singer, who became fast friends with Rinna after meeting through former cast member Yolanda Hadid in 2015 on-screen of RHOBH, added: ‘I mean they can try.’

When a TMZ reporter suggested Lisa Vanderpump return to the show, Jayne fired back: ‘She’s the coward that ran away and couldn’t show up for the reunion, so I don’t think she is a good fit.’

As for whether Rinna’s nemesis, Kathy Hilton, should be prompted from a part-time cast member to an official Housewife, Jayne gave a surprising answer.

Still, Jayne said she was ‘going to miss Lisa very much’ and that they will still see each other as she says Rinna is ‘a very close friend of’ hers.

 ‘I will still see her, but she will be missed and I think that everyone will feel it,’ she told the outlet.

As for the best-selling author’s next step, Jayne said her pal has her hands full with Rinna Beauty, which she launched in 2020, and Rinna Wines, which is expected to become available across the U.S. by next month.

‘Lisa has been in this business for 35 years,’ the reality star noted, before agreeing that success will follow her friend wherever she sets her sights next.
