The RHOBH star met her high-profile attorney husband while working at Chasen’s restaurant in West Hollywood in the ’90s. She slipped him her number, and the rest is history. After living together for just six months, Girardi proposed. The couple got married in 1999 with only two witnesses present. Now at the ages of 49 and 81, their marriage is coming to an end. To make matters more complicated, the couple doesn’t have a prenup in place. According to Us Weekly, Girardi told Bravo personality Andy Cohen on Then & Now in 2018 that she didn’t sign a prenup. “But let me tell you something, let me be very clear. I’m married to a very powerful lawyer,” she added. “A prenup wouldn’t stand in his way anyway. So it doesn’t matter whether you had one or you didn’t, it’s gonna be all Tom’s way, I assure you.” Although Mr. Girardi was rarely featured on the show, aspects of the divorce will likely play out on Season 11 of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, which is currently filming.
