Though Girardi claims she "took the high road," her perspective changed when Richards allegedly dug in and "called me names" such as "a f---ing bot monster"
Erika Girardi is spilling the tea on her explosive confrontation with Denise Richards as season 13 of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills finally premieres on Bravo.
In PEOPLE's exclusive tease of Thursday’s episode of the Meghan McCain Has Entered the Chat podcast, the reality star, 52, opens up about her ongoing feud with Richards, also 52, and how they two came to blows while filming the latest season of the Bravo show.
“Denise came looking for a fight,” she explains, referring to the blow-up confrontation teased in this season’s trailer. "We were having a THC dinner at Kyle [Richards]'s house… I was feeling very good and Denise came there to pick a fight and I very graciously did not [engage].”

Erika GirardiGirardi claims that she “didn’t know what the f— she was saying” and added that she felt Richards should have saved the drama for “Teddi [Mellencamp], or Brandi [Glanville] or Lisa Rinna” which she “did not have the balls to do.”
“I just apologized and she was very inarticulate,” she recalls, adding that she eventually “let her have it” after failed attempts to let things go. “And that's what you see in the trailer was just that, you know, in the first dinner, I apologized. I took the high road.”
“She called me names,” the singer continues. “She called me like a f—ing bot monster, saying that I had sent these bots to Garcelle [Beauvais]’s son and that was not true. I said I'm really sorry, I'm not quite sure what you're speaking about and what you did to my family.”

When Richards wasn’t satisfied with her answers and “wanted some more, I just said ‘Okay, then you know, fine. F— it.’ Like if that's what you want to do. How’s OnlyFans? I don't know.”
Girardi shares that she felt the confrontation came from left field as the two were “totally cool” when they ran into each other at “Garcelle’s premiere” before the dinner.
“And then she flipped, went after me at this dinner and then I had to you know, I had to respond and I did,” she says.

In the season 13 trailer of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, fans saw old faces return and new drama emerge as Richards, Camille Grammer, Faye Resnick, Kim Richards made return appearances.
Things between Richards and Girardi seemed to reach an all time high when the “Get It Tonight” artist fired, "Did you know that it's seven dollars for a naked bundle of Denise Richards on OnlyFans?"
When Girardi asked, "You think I'm not going to go as low as I f---ing can?!" while Richards retorted, "You're one evil woman.”
Back in April, Richards confirmed that she "filmed some episodes" of RHOBH, marking her return since her departure in September 2020.
"It's been fun. And you know, I'm a big fan of the show, so it was fun to go back and film a lot of stuff with them," she told Variety. "This all just happened recently on the spur of the moment."
