Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum Brandi Glanville has not had the easiest time recently. And perhaps it has led her to remember other times things got difficult in her past. And one of those moments was her the Real Housewives: Ultimate Girls’ Trip drama with former Real Housewives of New Jersey star Caroline Manzo that she shared “ruined her life.”
No one can forget the trip to Morocco that ended in Caroline saying Brandi sexually assaulted her. Caroline sued Bravo and its affiliates and that season of RHUGT was buried forever. Caroline wasn’t the only one to file legal papers. Brandi also filed a lawsuit against Bravo accusing Bravo of her stress-induced illness that made it impossible for her to work.
Brandi Glanville says RHUGT drama with Caroline Manzo ruined her life
Brandi spoke with Tori Spelling on her podcast Misspelling about the situation and how the incident during RHUGT ruined her life.
“All my jobs were canceled,” Brandi recalled. “The narrative when we got back from Morocco was I was fired for being inappropriate with Caroline Manzo. And I wasn’t.”
She recalled how those first six months following the sexual misconduct allegations had her in a deep depression. “It ruined my life. I was in a fetal position on my couch, like, contemplating suicide and I was being called horrible things.”
News broke in January 2023 that both Brandi and Caroline left the RHUGT Morocco. Their departure was due to Brandi allegedly kissing and acting inappropriately with Caroline without her consent. It escalated quickly and according to Brandi went from “lap dance” to “sexual assault.” Brandi continues to deny all sexual misconduct claims.
“I was supposed to go to Australia after RHUGT,” Brandi shared. “I had jobs lined up, and everything was canceled.”
And if that wasn’t hard enough, Brandi also said she “lost her looks at the same time.” She has since been dealing with a mysterious medical condition that has caused facial disfigurement.
“It’s just been a really tough time, and not having a diagnosis is the hardest because it’s spreading,” the RHOBH alum disclosed.
She is still hoping that Bravo will eventually air the footage of RHUGT to show what she has been saying all along.
Previous seasons of Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip are streaming on Peacock.
