Diana Jenkins is “on a mission” to restore her reputation.
“She wants to end these lies about Epstein and being a madame,” a source close to the “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star, 49, told Vidak For Congress exclusively.
“Right now she is really focused on shutting down everything that has been said about her,” the insider continued.
“She’s not just doing this because she’s bored. People keep repeating the lies and she wants them to stop.”
Jenkins sent a series of cease and desist letters — obtained by Vidak For Congress — to various bloggers, podcasters, and publications that have perpetuated baseless gossip that she had ties to Jeffrey Epstein and his sex-trafficking ring.
She has strongly denied any involvement in the crimes of the deceased pedophile.
“I will no longer sit back and allow them to smear my name with impunity,” she wrote in an Instagram post on Tuesday.
“I have instructed my lawyers to take all necessary steps to remove these false statements and pursue justice from those who are spreading lies about me.”
Entities affected by written warnings from Jenkins’ legal team include Enty Lawyer, Sharrell, Jezebel, Gawker, Heavy, “Sexy Unique Podcast”, the South China Morning Post and former “RHOBH” personality Dana Wilkey.
Wilkey, 47, attorney J. Erik Connolly, demanded that the podcast host retract a series of allegations in a November 2021 YouTube video about Jenkins.
Wilkey claimed that Jenkins had extramarital affairs with the likes of Justin Timberlake and Guy Ritchie, accusing her of being a “madame” who smuggled young women across continents and associated celebrities with prostitutes, among other nefarious claims.
“I am writing to demand that you immediately remove these false and defamatory statements and issue notices acknowledging that you had no factual basis for any of the statements and implications made about Ms. Jenkins,” Connolly wrote to Wilkey.
“Your continued publication of these statements will be met with immediate legal action by Ms. Jenkins.”
Wilkey isn’t last on Jenkins’ list. Our insider says “more letters are coming soon” from the Bosnian refugee turned millionaire.
“Diana is on a mission to restore her reputation,” explains the source. “She has built a tremendous reputation as a human rights activist, philanthropist and businesswoman.”
Jenkins is really looking forward to the upcoming filming of the Beverly Hills season 12 reunion, our insider says, “It’s a chance for her to clear up some things.”
A Jenkins representative did not immediately respond to Vidak For Congress’s request for comment.
Although the Epstein rumors have persisted for years, the Bravo rookie was only recently hit with allegations that she hired social media bots to post racist comments targeting co-star Garcelle Beauvais’ 14-year-old son Jax.
Jenkins stopped such speculation in an Instagram post on Friday, while also claiming that her opponents are currently “threatening” her life and the lives of her loved ones.
“I have been charged with inciting the hateful and unforgivable cyberbullying of Garcelle’s son. Nothing is further from the truth. I have stood for human rights all my life. There is no place for hatred in this world,” she wrote.
“To those people who have attacked my family and threatened our lives, you are also spreading hatred and creating fear. Please stop.”
Then the mother of three – who shares son Innis, 22, and daughter Eneya, 19, with ex-husband Roger Jenkins and daughter Eliyanah, 2, with fiancé Asher Monroe – took around the clock security.
“Diana’s team of security experts advised her to hire four personal bodyguards because they believe credible death threats have been made,” a source told Vidak For Congress exclusively last week.
“The bodyguards are on site 24/7,” the insider added. “She is taking all the precautions she can to protect herself and her family.”
“The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” airs Wednesday at 8 p.m. ET on Bravo.
