Brandi Glanville Says She Contemplated Suicide and Was Devastated After Caroline Manzo’s Assault Claims!

Brandi Glanville is speaking candidly about the emotional and physical toll she’s endured in the aftermath of her controversial departure from The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip and the public fallout from Caroline Manzo’s misconduct allegations.

In a deeply personal interview on the Misspelling podcast, the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum, 51, revealed she fell into a dark place following the Morocco taping. The reality star shared that she contemplated ending her life as the scandal unfolded and says she’s still battling an unexplained medical condition that’s drastically affecting her face.

“All my jobs were canceled,” Brandi Glanville said of the backlash that followed the alleged incident with Caroline.

“The narrative when we got back from Morocco was I was fired for being inappropriate with Caroline Manzo, and I wasn’t. It’s ruined my life.”

The Morocco trip, which was intended to be another high-drama installment of Ultimate Girls Trip, turned into a media firestorm when Manzo accused Glanville of touching her without consent. While Caroline later filed suit against Peacock and Bravo, Brandi was not named in the legal action. Still, the reputational damage was done.

“Those six months, I was in a fetal position on my couch, contemplating suicide,” she admitted. “I was being called horrible things. It went from ‘gave her a lap dance’ to ‘kissed her unwantingly’ to ‘sexually harassed her’ and then to rape.”

She continued, “I was supposed to go to Australia after [filming the show]. I had all these jobs lined up, and everything was canceled. It wasn’t even – I’m like, ‘Just wait for the show to air at least, like, come on.’”

Left with no income and mounting stress, Brandi turned to OnlyFans to support herself. “I was going through my savings, and so I started,” she explained. “I was making good money and then my face started being crazy, so then I couldn’t really even do that … It’s just been a really tough time.”

The Bravo personality also opened up about the medical issues she’s been facing, which have impacted her ability to work and her overall well-being. “Still [don’t have] a diagnosis,” she said of the mysterious condition. “It’s spreading. Like something’s spreading.”

Despite the lack of clear answers from doctors, Brandi found unexpected support online. “Luckily, some women have reached out to me on social media, and they’ve had very, very similar things happening to their face. And they’ve helped me so much.”

Among the day-to-day challenges, she revealed she’s had to resort to chewing gum constantly in order to get relief. “I have to chew gum so my lymphs actually drain,” she shared. “There’s so much pressure in my head and neck—it feels like it’s going to explode.”

Though the road has been rocky, Brandi’s transparency has sparked a wave of support from fans and others experiencing similar health issues. As of now, she’s still searching for answers—and healing from the emotional damage of the past year.

New episodes of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills air Tuesdays at 8 p.m. ET on Bravo.
