RHOBH star Erika Jayne will NOT join Celebrity Big Brother despite rumors due to Bravo ‘rule’
ERIKA Jayne will not be joining Celebrity Big Brother, despite recent rumors claiming she’s on the cast of season 3, The Sun can report.
Erika, who is currently filming the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills’ new season, is too busy, and not actually allowed, to take on the new gig, a source told The Sun.
An insider told The Sun: “There is absolutely no truth to Erika appearing on Celebrity Big Brother.”
Andy Cohen, who is the executive producer of the Housewives, addressed the Erika casting rumor on SiriusXM’s Andy Cohen Live Wednesday as well.
He said of RHOBH star: “She’s shooting the Housewives of Beverly Hills right now everybody, I hate to burst your bubble.”
When asked if she could do both, Andy responded: “No. It’s a confined living experience, and she’s shooting another show.”
An insider added that it’s rare that current Housewives franchise stars are allowed to participate on other networks’ shows.
NBC owns Bravo which includes the Housewives, while Celebrity Big Brother airs on CBS.
LEGAL DRAMA
While Erika seems to be out at CBB, her Housewives story lines will likely continue to command attention in the upcoming season of RHOBH.
The reality star remains intertwined in a legal battle stemming from allegations against her ex-husband, Tom Girardi.

Erika’s ex-husband Tom and his law firm, Girardi Keese, were previously accused of embezzling funds from multiple families who lost loved ones in a 2018 Boeing plane crash.
The 82-year-old was later sued by his business partners, which resulted in a chapter 7 bankruptcy petition in December.
Despite claiming she was not aware of Tom’s wrongdoings, the Bravo star has found herself at the center of the legal drama.
Erika was accused of “hiding her bank statements,” as a trustee’s special litigation counsel confirmed that Tom’s law firm transferred about $20 million to her many businesses.
The TV personality created one of the businesses after news broke of the embezzlement scandal.
CBB RUMOR MILL
While Erika is out from the CBB casting, there are still a slew of rumored potential cast members for the upcoming season of the competition reality show, which begins February 4.
Scott Disick’s name has been mentioned as a star
He is of course known for appearing on Keeping Up With The Kardashians alongside ex Kourtney Kardashian.
Tiffany Pollard, who best known for her time on Flavor of Love, is also rumored to be on the show.
Other celebrities rumored to be joining the cast are Dennis Rodman, Survivor’s Robert Mariano, and Vanderpump Rules alum Jax Taylor.
