Personal life and legal issues[edit]
While living in New York, she met Thomas Zizzo,[13] when he was working as a DJ at a club in Manhattan. The couple got married in December 1991 at St. Patrick's Cathedral. Soon thereafter she gave birth to a son, Thomas Zizzo Jr. After the couple divorced a few years later, she relocated to Los Angeles to pursue her dream of becoming a singer.[14]
In January 2000, she married attorney Thomas Girardi, a founding partner of Girardi & Keese in Downtown Los Angeles.[15]

On December 17, 2020, the Los Angeles Times published a detailed article about the couple's legal issues titled 'The legal titan and the 'Real Housewife': The rise and fall of Tom Girardi and Erika Jayne.'[21] Two days later Jayne released an Instagram post revealing text messages and photos of Tom Girardi's alleged mistress.[22] A documentary about the couple's highly publicized legal troubles titled The Housewife and the Hustler was released on Hulu on June 14, 2021.[23]
