Erika Jayne Shares a New Look Inside Her Bright and Airy Kitchen
The RHOBH cast member showed off the space during an afternoon of cooking.
Erika Jayne is making good use of her Los Angeles kitchen. And it’s not just for glam purposes.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills cast member shared a peek at the space earlier this month while showing off her Italian cooking skills. Erika kicked things off with an Instagram video highlighting the darling gift she received from Harry Hamlin, the husband of RHOBH alum Lisa Rinna.

“OK. Hey, everybody, look at what just arrived at my house: Harry’s Famous Sauce,” she said in the video. “Damn good sauce, too.”
Harry’s red sauce was made famous in RHOBH Season 11 when he treated the ‘Wives to his famous bowl of spaghetti Bolognese. Fast-forward to 2024, when Harry officially released the sauce through his Open Food company.
As part of the rollout, the Beverly Hills husband gifted his friends with classic, gingham-lined picnic baskets filled with bright flowers; branded pasta bowls; and, of course, jars of red sauce. Erika displayed the delivery on her marble kitchen countertop as she revealed the little note she received from Harry and Lisa.
“Hi Erica,” the message read “We wanted you to have the first peek at the sauce. It’s finally happening. Happy cooking. XO HH & Lisa.”

Erika then pulled out a recipe card for Harry’s Famous Pasta Bolognese, which he “spent over 30 years perfecting.”
“We’re going to make this right now,” she said in the video. “Congratulations, Harry.”
While Erika followed the recipe, fans received several more glimpses at her gorgeous kitchen. The space featured a free-standing range with a castiron stove top, Spanish floor tile, and crisp-white cabinets that went well with the stone countertops and subway tile backsplash.
Erika admits she's "not great in the kitchen"
Erika moved into her LA abode in 2021, after leaving the Pasadena mansion she shared with her ex. Since then, the Atlanta native has seemingly become much more comfortable in the kitchen, where she admittledy struggled in the past.
Erika spoke about her cooking skills in a 2020 interview for Bustle’s “Bustle Booth: At Home” series, explaining why she tried to keep her homecooked meals as simple as possible.
“I made a yellow cake, like a box cake, with chocolate icing,” she said. “I attempted to make some pasta bolognese. I have this, like, pressure cooker thing, but I need help. I’m really not very good… I’m not great in the kitchen.”
