Erika Jayne once again denied claims that the diabetes drug Ozempic is behind her recent weight loss.
“My answer stands then, and it stands now,” Erika Jayne told Extra on Monday. “I’ve always been tiny. I got bigger during all of my depression and through everything else.”
“There’s nothing like putting on a show and a little bit of stress … to get you right back into shape,” she continued.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star then appeared on the August 28th episode of Tamra Judge and Teddi Mellencamp‘s Two T’s in a Pod podcast, where she also addressed rumors about her weight loss.
Erika Jayne doubled down on her prior claims that menopause caused her weight loss.
“When you said on Watch What Happens Live. It was from menopause. I feel like you needed to expand on what you meant by that,” Teddi said.
“I was going through menopause, and I expanded. I got heavier, and then you want help. And then I went, and I got help.” Erika explained.
“Can you explain to them a little bit about what it is?” Teddi asked after noting, “I did the same.”
“So hormonal replacement therapy, I’m implanted with [a] certain amount of hormones. I’m on a lot of different hormone regimens. It takes you down, and it makes you better. I stopped drinking, and I totally changed my regimen. So it wasn’t like, ‘Oh, I lost weight during menopause.’ No, I sought help during menopause, and [my weight] came down [as a result],” Erika elaborated.
This all comes just weeks after Erika Jayne appeared on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen and addressed her recent weight loss. She denied using Ozempic and insisted she lost the weight due to menopause.
“Yes, I did come down in weight, and I did it hormonally,” Erika Jayne told host Andy Cohen during the August 1 episode of WWHL.
“Not Ozempic-ally?” Andy asked, to which the Pretty Mess singer replied, “I was going through menopause. So I took it all down.”
While Erika’s fellow WWHL guest Jackie Hoffman said she doubts anyone “loses weight in menopause.”
“I went to the doctor, and I said, ‘Get it off me,’” Erika explained, adding,“We have this conversation in Beverly Hills, and we have a cast member with an eating disorder.”
Fans and RHOBH star Sutton Stracke shaded Erika’s claims she lost weight due to menopause.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills is reportedly returning to Bravo for season 13 in late 2023. Some reports suggest season 13 will premiere on November 1.
