Erika Jayne appears to be on the hunt for a new abode as she was seen looking at a single bedroom apartment for rent in West Hollywood on Wednesday.
The reality star, 50, is currently embroiled in her estranged husband Tom Girardi’s embezzlement scandal – where he stands accused of taking settlement funds that were meant to help families of plane crash victims.
Erika cut a casual figure for the outing as she donned a grey jumper with matching tracksuit bottoms.

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star also sported a pair of white trainers while she styled her platinum blonde locks into an updo.
During Wednesday’s episode of RHOBH, Erika told her co-star Kyle Richards that she has ‘zero dollars’.
Erika branded broke life ‘f***ing bulls***t’ as Kyle listened on, and the pair both enjoyed what appears to be very expensive champagne while on a vineyard trip.
Erika has denied knowing anything about her husband’s situation, but Tom, 82, recently claimed otherwise telling a reporter ‘I think she does’.

Giardi, 82, who once had an estimated fortune valued at $264million, was recently seen leaving a lunch at an upscale restaurant in Los Angeles with some friends when he was asked if Erika knew about the situation.
A cameraman asked the disbarred lawyer, via PageSix, about Jayne as he said: ‘Did Erika know anything? Everyone wants to know.’
Tom – who is accused of embezzling millions of cash meant for plane crash victims, and has been forced into bankruptcy – stood quiet for a few seconds before one of his friends tried intervening and eventually convinced him to keep walking.
Before heading off, the co-founder of downtown Los Angeles law firm Girardi & Keese finally answered the question about the woman he’s been married to since 2000 saying: ‘I think she does.’

Erika has repeatedly denied any knowledge of wrongdoing but fellow Housewives stars have reportedly said they were aware of the scandal.
Camille Grammer claimed she heard of her and Girardi’s financial difficulties at Andy Cohen’s 2019 baby shower, Page Six reported.
Fellow reality star Bethenny Frankel said Girardi’s woes were the ‘worst kept secret’ in LA, claiming he owed her late ex-boyfriend Dennis Shields $500,000.
According to Page Six, Jayne remained silent when she was asked about Giradi’s comments.

Last month, DailyMail.com revealed that Girardi is now living in a senior living home in Burbank, California after saying goodbye to living lavishly in his $13 million Pasadena mansion.
The former attorney is currently facing claims of allegedly embezzling settlement funds that were meant to help the families of plane crash victims.
It was also revealed that Girardi – who has now been placed under a conservatorship – has been federally disbarred by California Federal Court.
It’s quite the change of scenery for Girardi, who has now moved out of his palatial Pasadena mansion, that was once on the market for $13million.
Pricing for Belmont Village Senior Living in Burbank is said to be between $4,545 – $4,750 a month for a private suite.

The facility has staff available 24/7, and boasts community chef-prepared dining with 24 daily choices of meals.
Costing for the facility depends on the room type and level of care that is required.
Girardi’s move also follows claims from Jayne who said last week that she’s been receiving death threats after it was claimed she allegedly spent $25million from Girardi’s law firm on credit card purchases and fees for her glam squad.
Lawyers for the trustee overseeing the bankruptcy of the Girardi Keese firm allege the company transferred the money to Jayne’s EJ Global LLC, according to a letter they sent to her lawyer, reports claimed last week.
The letter will be filed with the bankruptcy court as a part of the legal proceedings, a source told the outlet.
Former home: The reality star previously put her sprawling Pasadena mansion on the market for $13million amid her divorce
Erika filed for divorce from Girardi in November and has denied wrongdoing after the law firm filed for bankruptcy and he was accused of misappropriating $2million intended for victims of Indonesia’s Lion Air 610 crash.
The reality star previously put her sprawling Pasadena mansion on the market amid her divorce.
Rrika listed the 10,277 square foot, four bedroom, six bathroom abode she shared with Tom for $13 million.
The lavish listing is a strong signal the divorcing couple are divvying up their joint assets.
