RHOBH’s Erika Jayne Clarifies Her Comments on Crystal Kung Minkoff’s Eating Disorder

Crystal, it turns out, has sought professional help. “I have had treatment in the past,” she said on the RHOBH After Show. “I’ve talked to people in the past, I currently talk to someone. It’s an ongoing thing.”

And even though some fans are upset with Erika, Crystal is choosing to give her the benefit of the doubt, explaining, “Even someone like Erika, who’s very choice in her manners, her words, and stuff like that, there are some topics that can feel awkward for people, and I think that this was one of them.”

That’s not to say she condones Erika’s comments—especially the laxatives one. “I think it was more triggering that as she’s saying these things, that she doesn’t know that it could be hurtful,” Crystal continued. “Had that been something that I had an issue with, it could’ve been really bad for me.
