REAL Housewives of Beverly Hills newbie Diana Jenkins has broken her silence on rumors that she is a “madam of high-class prostitutes”.
She spoke out on tonight’s episode about the “ridiculous” gossip that spread after she released a nude coffee table book.
As the ladies sat down to dinner in Mexico, Lisa Rinna, 58, opened the subject by asking her fellow Housewives: “Have you guys seen her [Diana’s] book, Room 23?”
“It’s really sexy,” chimed in Erika Jayne, 50.
However, 48-year-old Diana seemed reluctant to talk about the raunchy 2009 book which features images of stars including George Clooney, Lindsay Lohan and RHOBH’s very-own Lisa.
In a confessional, Diana admitted: “I don’t particularly wanna talk about the book tonight because it took a lot of money, a lot of time to achieve what I did, but it backfired.”

It comes after rumors spread that the book was “a catalog of clients and call girls” according to a .
Diana herself was accused of running a “secret call-girl ring”.
She continued: “All these rumors started, it was like an offense of my character.”
A producer then asked the star directly: “So you’re not like an international sex trafficker? And madam of high-class prostitutes? Is that what you’re trying to tell me?”

Diana laughed as she replied: “It’s honestly so ridiculous that I can’t even believe it actually could have caught on."
She added: "It's very very dangerous, all you need to do is leave a bunch of fake rumors and you can actually destroy somebody's life.
"It was just a very painful time, but truth prevailed. Everybody knows now."
SWERVING THE SUBJECT
Back at dinner, Diana had excused herself from the table, and the women took the opportunity to gossip about her reluctance to discuss Room 23.
Dorit Kemsley, 45, asked: “Do you think she didn't wanna talk about the book?”
Lisa agreed: “Yeah.”
NEW MONEY
Diana joined the cast of the Bravo show this year for season 12, and has already made an impression with her extravagant wealth.
The Bosnia and Herzegovina native lives in a massive seven-bedroom and nine-bathroom estate in the Hidden Hills worth $11.7m.
She has shocked viewers with some of her comments, and in a previous episode, revealed that she didn't know what an outlet store was.
Instead, she has designers such as Balenciaga send clothes to her house, and she simply sends back what she doesn't like.
