‘Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills’ Star Erika Girardi Shows Her Softer Side In Season 7, Episode 14 Sneak Peek

The cast of “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” has made a lot of snap judgements about Erika Girardi. She’s accused of being cold, but after Tuesday’s Season 7 episode they may change their tune.

A sneak-peek video for episode 14 shows Erika returning home to visit her family. She and her mother take a trip to a cemetery. Sitting by her grandparents burial plot, Erika speaks candidly with her mother about the way she raised her.

“My mom, sometimes, was so trusting and so open, you know, and she got hurt a lot,” Erika said (via ET Online). “I remember, my mother was in a purple polo and navy shorts. She was sitting in our den, and she was crying, so devastated and so hurt that this man had left her. And I remember, in that moment, looking at my mother saying, ‘I’ll never be like that.’”

Erika tells her mother she’s accused of being “cold” by her “RHOBH” co-stars, but not which one. Those watching along with Season 7 know it was frenemy Dorit Kemsley who made the comment. The newest addition called Erika cold around the same time pantygate occurred.

Dorit wasn’t the only one with negative things to say about Erika. The rookie “RHOBH” star’s husband P.K. suggested the white party flashing was intentional saying, “maybe Erika’s bits are available for the world.” Lucky for Erika, co-star Eileen Davidson was there to defend her.

“Erika is a wife, a mother and an all-around terrific human being,” she wrote on her Bravo TV blog. “I was shocked by the vulgarity in which PK and Dorit chose to discuss the situation. It’s unfortunate that this is how Erika and Dorit are getting to know each other.”

Tune in to Bravo on Tuesday at 9 p.m. EST for more “RHOBH.”
