While Erika Jayne’s divorce from Tom Girardi remains in limbo, she just soft-launched a new romance. The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star was spotted holding hands with a new silver fox. He goes by Shrek, just like everyone’s favorite green ogre. Plus, he’s Heidi Montag’s bodyguard. Small world, huh? Here’s what we know about Erika’s new boyfriend…
Erika Jayne is dating John “Shrek” McPhee
Papparazzi spotted Erika looking like a regular, everyday woman walking with John “Shrek” McPhee. He’s a 53-year-old war veteran who earned the nickname of the “Sheriff of Baghdad,” which tells you everything you need to know.
These days, Shrek works as a bodyguard and sells “tactical gear.” He also has an online, subscription-based platform called SOB TV, which is for “military, law enforcement, and civilians interested in leadership, gear reviews, mindset, firearms training, home defense, and military history.”
In the paparazzi photos of Shrek and Erika, it’s clear he’s not working as Erika’s bodyguard. They look like the average couple you’d see strolling around in a Walmart parking lot. She’s got on jeans and a t-shirt. He’s rocking a pair of grey Crocs along with a Stranger Things t-shirt. Is it love?
Although Erika has been in an ongoing divorce for years, this is the first we’ve seen of her truly stepping out and looking coupled up. Earlier this year, she admitted that her heart was open to it.
“I have done a lot of work on myself and pulling myself together, rebuilding my life,” Erika said.
So, how exactly did a Real Housewife of Beverly Hills end up with a guy named Shrek who sells tactical gear? According to a theory from the Sun, the two might have bonded over their “shared love of jujitsu.” Apparently, Erika started taking classes in the aftermath of her legal scandals, and John is a big martial arts fan.
Hopefully, we’ll learn a lot more about what these two have in common when the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 15 airs. They’re currently filming, and she can’t spend another season decorating her apartment as a storyline.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills is streaming on Peacock. The show streams on Hayu in the UK and Ireland.
