'RHOBH' Rift! Lisa Rinna's Turning On BFF Erika Jayne After Blowout Fight In Aspen, Producers Forced To Step In

It appears Erika Jayne's trusty sidekick Lisa Rinna has turned on her. Bravo producers were allegedly forced to stop filming when the Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills star began ripping into Erika behind her back following a blowout fight just hours before.
Rinna allegedly spat off several accusations about Erika over the weekend on a girls' trip to Aspen, Colorado, with the whole cast, and there were plenty of witnesses nearby to observe Jayne's newfound frienemy's tongue-lashing.
According to sources inside Felix Roasting Company, where the ladies recapped a reported altercation that took place the night before, Rinna called out Erika for a number of things. She is allegedly concerned with Erika's drinking.
The only problem is, Erika wasn't there to defend herself.
Rinna's alleged accusations, which would usually be used as a plotline, apparently crossed major lines. The eyewitness claims producers jumped in and demanded that cameras stop rolling.
"A producer had to step in and they stopped filming... then all the girls made an agreement to not name call anymore and filming resumed," the insider alleges. They also claim all this went down after Rinna got into it with Dorit Kemsley the night before.
Dorit has been wishy-washy about whether she believes Erika has any knowledge about her estranged husband Thomas Girardi's alleged embezzlement scheme. He's been accused of using his clients' settlement money — some of whom are orphans and widows — to find Erika's elaborate lifestyle.
While Erika fiercely defended herself against the accusations last season, Rinna was the only one who seemed to be ride or die. Allegedly, the tables have now turned.
"Rinna seems to be in a good place with Garcelle [Beauvais] and Sutton [Stracke]," the eyewitness claims. "Sounded like Rinna has gotten to a point where she can no longer defend Erika."
They later added, "Dorit feels bad for Erika and [is] trying to help her out. Really seemed like there is a beginning to be a rift between Erika and Rinna although Rinna sounded genuinely concerned for her."
The insider also says the group accused Erika of "refusing to give up her earrings and [was] pissed at the insinuation that she should. Read about the issues with the diamonds here.
Following the explosive coffee scene, Erika was spotted shopping with Dorit and newcomer Sanela Diana Jenkins. None of the other women were present.
