Brandi Glanville has officially lost her legal team, who would have represented her in a potential lawsuit against Bravo and Andy Cohen. This situation has been developing since last year when Brandi filmed Real Housewives: Ultimate Girls Trip.
The lawsuit threat first arose after her co-star, Caroline Manzo, sued the network, claiming that Bravo encouraged Brandi to kiss Caroline without her consent. Caroline said she felt pressured to “engage in sexually offensive and harassing content.”
Brandi not only had issues with Caroline, but she also accused Andy Cohen of pressuring her to have sexual relationships with him and Below Deck’s Kate Chastain. A video recently surfaced showing Andy and Kate seemingly enticing Brandi.
On September 30, Brandi confirmed that her lawyers had dropped her from their representation. Brandi has had a chaotic year since she left The Real Housewives: Ultimate Girls Trip early. Both she and Caroline have fueled ongoing threats of lawsuits against Bravo and Andy Cohen. Brandi has been outspoken about her negative feelings towards the network, even claiming that Andy pressured her to hook up with other Bravo stars.
In a now-deleted post on X (formerly Twitter), Brandi announced her lawyer’s decision by saying, “I mean, you can not write this sh*t! (I guess I’m doing that now) After a YEAR of telling me how rich I was about to be & how strong my case against BRAVO is my ‘lawyers’ have decided I now don’t have a case [and] cut ties with me. #paid off maybe?!? Allegedly.”
Brandi was shocked by this news, especially after she had been revealing details about her experience with Bravo. Earlier this year, she sent a legal letter to Andy Cohen, accusing him of sexual harassment.
The letter claimed that Andy, as her boss, “exercised complete and total control over her career,” which left Brandi feeling trapped and disgusted. The letter compared Andy’s actions to the past issues with Matt Lauer at NBC, where profits were prioritized over people.
It’s still unclear what will happen next with Brandi’s situation against Bravo, but she remains entangled in the ongoing conflict involving Caroline Manzo. Currently, The Real Housewives: Ultimate Girls Trip is available for streaming on Peacock.
