Tom's family chose to put him in a facility for his dementia

While sitting down with Kyle Richards, 52, and Lisa Rinna, 58, Erika revealed Tom's brother, Robert, had been appointed his conservator due to the former lawyer's dementia.

After sharing his family's plans to put him in a senior home, Erika made it clear that she did not support the idea.

She said: “I’m ready to have a nervous breakdown because regardless of what is going on with him legally, this is someone I was married to for 22 years.”

Erika said she “doesn’t agree” that Tom, 82, needs to be put in a home, explaining: “My grandmother was put into a home. She had very bad dementia.”

After noting that her grandmother was the “most beloved” person in her life, the RHOBH star continued: “This is a very difficult thing because I watched my grandmother die and to see this happen here again.”

PERSONAL EXPERIENCE

She told the Kyle and Lisa: “When my grandmother was in her home, Tom paid for that. 

"He was there for my grandmother. We have to remember that."

Erika continued: "I think he needs a caretaker, for sure.

"But I don’t think that he needs to be in a home like I saw my grandmother in. I know what they do to you in there.

"It’s supposed to be great care but if you lash out then they medicate you. The only way is down.”

'NIGHTMARE'

After stating his adult children want nothing to do with Tom, Erika admitted that the situation “tragic” and a “nightmare.”

Back in August, Tom was spotted at a nursing home as the former high-powered attorney wore an oversized purple sweater and white pants during his outing.

He had his face mask under his chin before putting it back on.

After taking in the air and views, Tom re-entered the rest home.

More recently, it was revealed that Tom has been moved to another facility in Burbank, CA.

ERIKA'S LEGAL PROBLEMS

The RHOBH star filed for divorce from Tom back in November after about 21 years of marriage.

After their split was confirmed, the former couple was hit with a number of lawsuits.

Despite claiming she was not aware of Tom’s wrongdoings, the Bravo star has found herself at the center of the legal drama.

Erika was accused of “hiding her bank statements," as a trustee's special litigation counsel confirmed that Tom’s law firm transferred about $20 million to her many businesses.

The pair's legal drama has become a hot topic on the most recent season of RHOBH.

NO MORE RUNNING

The Real Housewives star recently shared a teaser pic from the upcoming reunion 

In the snap, Erika had a vibe of old-school Hollywood glamour in a Marilyn Monroe-inspired baby pink dress.

She posed on the stairs of her trailer as she combed her long blonde hair in dramatic waves and showed off her cleavage in the plunging mini dress.

She captioned the post: "Like me or not, I don’t run and hide. #rhobh reunion."
