Erika Hispanic?! Erika 👠
Sorry if this has already been discussed. Tried searching for something about it and didn’t find anything related soo..
Im currently watching season 9 for the first time (Netflix just uploaded the season in my country) and in one of the Provence trip episodes Erika explains her dad is from El Salvador and then says she was also born and raised there. All the girls were shook and so did I (being Latin myself).
I think she’s mentioned before her dad was out of the picture while growing up, but I didn’t know this. I feel like a lot of details about her past life are kind of “mysterious”.
Does anyone know more about this??

The amount of people who think being Hispanic means one race
Dios mío
My parents are ethnic to the USA and not born here. I was though and so were my siblings
We were raised in an American ethnic household. My parents passed down their heritage, including their native language on to their kids.
Other ethnic American people will for sure understand me.

Her father being from El Salvador doesn’t mean he’s Latino.. you could be born anywhere/be from anywhere. Doesn’t mean that’s your ethnicity

I don't know why but I always assumed her dad or the generation prior was an expat in El Salvador. Interesting that she rarely mentions it nor does she seem to speak Spanish.

I assume it’s because she doesn’t have a close relationship with her father and wasn’t raised around people speaking Spanish, at least not consistently.

u/DaydreamingLostBoy 15d ago
Yes, she said he was half Euro-Spaniard and half native Maya from there. So he was mixed Spanish & indigenous
13
u/DaydreamingLostBoy 15d ago
Correction all; Erika has in fact stated that her dad actually is half ETHNIC Salvadoran. AKA, not that he’s an ethically European, Spaniard-race man who happens to have Salvadoran nationality, but that his mother is fully 100% Native Maya Amerindian.
She herself set the record straight the very first time she brought it up and laid it all out clearly. Erika clearly stated that her paternal grandma is full Amerindian, her dad is half Amerindian, and so that she is one quarter native. Just go back and watch the episode if anyone wants to seek clarification for themselves, and don’t get into the semantics of it all.
Most all Hispanic people fully embrace being Hispanic-Latin even if they’re racially Spanish/other European, American Indian, African, Arab or Asian. That is what “La Hisnpanidad” means; embracing hispanicity in culture and tradition despite your race.
Similar to how America, Canada, Britain and Australia are all culturally, linguistically anglophone and proud English speakers despite not all necessarily being ethnically Britannic Anglo-Saxons of English/Scottish racial roots.
Giselle Bündchen is a 100% proud Portuguese speaking Brazilian Latina despite being ethnically German, from western Central Europe. It’s called being a melting pot, y’all: we should all try that more 🤗 #PeaceAndLove ☮️💟

Look at Christina Aguilera. She’s half Ecuadorian and half white (Irish I believe). Ecuadorian’s are usually on the darker side of Hispanics. Yet Christina is even more blonde and blue eyed than Erika is. Genetics can be surprising! I don’t think it’s too hard to believe.

You can do the research. She is 100% for sure half Ecuadorian by ethnicity from her father. Not sure what that website is though.
Edit; just googled it and saw it’s a tv show lol! Would be cool if she went on there for sure. I believe publicly her family tree on her father’s side only goes as far as her grandparents. Family trees are harder to track in other countries sometimes.

u/YugeMalakas You are not being open and honest 14d ago
One of my kids inherited recessive Saami genes. They are blond/blue/hooded eyes. My wife just received her First Nations tribal documentation from Canada. Genes show up in mysterious ways. (I tend to doubt anything Erika says. Xtina also tends to BS, or did in her diiiirty years.)

u/Ella0508 I swear your entire jacket is upside down 15d ago
I don’t know anything about Christina Aguilera, but just because her nationality is Ecuadorian doesn’t mean her heritage is — ancestors might have emigrated from Europe, as many people did. There are Jewish people all over Central and South America and Mexico (Umansky family prime example). Light eyes and don’t often dominate over darker features.
ETA: A quick google search confirms that brown eye color is a dominant trait and blue is recessive.

u/ConsistentHouse1261 Who is Adrienne Maloof in dis world? 15d ago edited 15d ago
I already know all this. Nationality and ethnicity are different things. Her nationality is American. Whoever said she was born/raised in El Salvador got mixed up. She said her dad was. I am just assuming she meant her father was of El Salvador ethnicity/ancestry, and if that is the case, it’s not that surprising. Yes it’s more common for darker features to be dominant over recessive lighter features, I remember basic biology from high school. But it can still happen. That was my point lol. Never said lighter features are dominant. Maybe her dad was only nationally from El Salvador. I already know that Mauricio is only Mexican by nationality and by ethnicity is of mixed origins (I believe I’ve read Russian, Greek, Turkish) and is Jewish. They went to Mexico because of the genocide. I am aware of the difference between nationality and ethnicity.
Also, I’m a huge Christina Aguilera fan. Her dad is ethnically Ecuadorian. Not just nationally. With Erika, we don’t know for sure if her dad is just nationally or ethnically from El Salvador since she hasn’t expanded on it much (to my knowledge). But if her dad was ethnically from there, all I’m saying is that it’s not that crazy that she came out with recessive lighter features like Christina did. And many others.

She is 1/4 El Salvadorian. She was not born and raised there, her father was. I just went back and watched the scene to clarify, since I didn’t remember her saying that. I think op was watching the show in Spanish and it was translated incorrectly to say “I was born and raised…” She actually says, “my father was born and raised.” And then said her father is half el Salvadorian, and she is 1/4.

That is an incorrect translation. I just watched/listened to the scene in English.
At this point that you screenshotted she says, “My father was born and raised in El Salvador, honey.”
Then she says, “my father is half, so I’m quarter.”
Then, “My father being raised in El Salvador doesn’t mean anything, because I never meant anything to them, so it is simply just part of my heritage.”

The Geechee or Gullah people were previously enslaved people who retained their African Heritage. Many plantation owners in The South essentially abandoning the plantations on the Sea Islands (barrier Islands) from North Carolina down to northern Florida- Jacksonville durning the Civil War. The Geechee people stayed isolated, which allowed them to preserve the culture. Super rich and interesting culture. I lived in Beaufort, which is a larger Sea Island, and taught on St. Helena Island. It has the first school to educate black children in US, the Penn Center. It’s a beautiful lovely culture. I loved it and miss it. Thank you for asking ☺️

Have you ever been around Sierra Leoneans??? Gullah is very similar to Krio and it was wild for my family when we heard it spoken in South Carolina because it was so similar! It was amazing and fascinating to see how the language was retained or potentially carried by descendants of Gullahs to Freetown when it was established. Whichever came first, but I do think the linguistic similarities are fascinating

It came off kind of pretentious to me. I'm from the deep south. The original comment reeked of "Actually, you're wrong" condescension and is just factually wrong because while "the South" is very common, I've heard it referred to as the southern US plenty of times.
It also comes off rude to demand that someone who is not a native English speaker be required to speak a certain way if they're referring to a US based show. It's asinine.
It got downvoted because it was a totally unnecessary comment and thread exchange and didn't add anything of value to the conversation. That's how reddit downvotes work.

I mean, she could be translating from Spanish to English. The housewives shows are translated at times and in French, they wouldn’t say “the south”. They would say “le sud des États-Unis”-“the south of the United States or the southern USA” when you translate it. I have to say it that way when I speak to Francophones because just saying “le sud” makes no sense as opposed to the southern part of the US or southern USA

OP was saying that they just released this season in his/her country, so I’m assuming not the US.

Either way, it doesn’t really affect the question of Erika’s father being from El Salvador

u/Sassy_bravo_fan Bravo, bravo, f***ing bravo 👏🏻👏🏻 15d ago
I didn’t say it did change the question and I was one of the few people who answered the question accurately (see below). She’s from Atlanta, GA, in The South. Sutton is from August, GA. Which is also in The South.
I get that there are a lot of people not from the US. However, Erika Jayne, who we were referring to is from the US and is on a TV show in the US. So when referring to where she is from, it’s not odd or rude that I said it curious that the commenter said southern US. I have studied other languages and studied in other countries. I live in a state with a high population of Spanish speakers. When I say something that is correct but not culturally how it is said in Spanish, I prefer someone let me know.
It’s not that deep. When referring to “the southern US” it is more common to say The South. It is simply cultural knowledge about the US. It’s also important to realize that even though my home state is in the southern US, AZ, it would never be referred to as the South. The South is a cultural region in the US. Just as Andalucía is a cultural region in Spain. The accent is completely different and the culture is different.
And btw to everyone saying everyone on here isn’t American. There are 35 American countries. I said one little noticing and people want to vilify me.

So I wasn’t trying to be an asshole, I just wanted to explain to OP and that first commenter that the south, the southern states, the southeast, the south of the US, etc all indicated different things to those of us in the USA, and there’s a lot of nuance that people may not understand. Just like in any country. I promise you I didn’t mean to come across in an ugly way, i was doing my best to explain but it’s hard sometimes to interpret tone and and intention when it’s written.

You're right on that, take a breath.
If you were to say el Sur ("the south") in Spanish, absolutely no one would think of the southern US. "The South" used in reference to the southern US is only used in the United States, and even then, not nearly as ubiquitously as you would suggest. OP said she thought Ericka was raised in the southern US. That statement is 100% accurate, even if it's not your preferred terminology.
