RHOBH star Lisa Rinna isn’t letting haters steal her happiness over an award nomination. See her master class in trolling the trolls.

Lisa Rinna faces fan backlash over Erika Jayne support

By her own admission, Season 10 of RHOBH wasn’t Lisa Rinna’s finest moment. She’s expressed regret over the way she went after Denise Richards over affair rumors. However, fans aren’t buying her mea culpa.

Instead, fans are calling Rinna out for not going nearly as hard for Erika Jayne amid shocking fraud allegations. A class-action lawsuit alleges that Erika and estranged husband Tom Girardi fleeced millions of dollars in settlement money from Girardi’s law firm. Money meant for families of plane crash victims and burn victims allegedly funded the Girardis’ extravagant lifestyle.

However, Lisa Rinna has stuck by her friend’s side, professing Erika’s innocence while co-star Sutton Stracke asked the hard questions.

On Thursday, October 28, Lisa Rinna shared some good news with her social media followers. The reality show star earned recognition as a People’s Choice Awards nominee. The category? Reality television, of course.

While the day started out with good news for Rinna, news broke of a scary incident her co-star faced the night before. RHOBH‘s Dorit Kemsley was the victim of a home invasion, reportedly robbed at gunpoint while her two children slept.

Kyle Richards, Erika Jayne, Lisa Rinna, and former RHOBH star Teddi Mellencamp converged on Dorit’s house earlier today (10/28.)

Lisa Rinna took to her Instagram to thank her fans for the People’s Choice nom. But she also took a moment to thank those non-fans. “Thanks to the haters, too,” she cheekily wrote. How did the nomination make Lisa Rinna feel? “Very hunky dory,” she wrote, using one of the most viral Season 11 moments.
