Brandi Glanville recently shared a photo of her face on social media, which led to concern from her fans. The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum explained that she’s been struggling with a health issue for over a year and a half, resulting in multiple hospital visits. She wrote on X (formerly Twitter) on December 8, expressing her confusion about her condition, stating, “I wish I knew I’ve been in & out of the hospital this passed year [and] 1/2 … spent almost every dollar I have trying to figure it out.”
Brandi mentioned that doctors have given her conflicting diagnoses, with some suggesting a parasite that affects her face, while others attribute it to stress-induced edema. In a lighthearted but pointed remark, she quipped, “I personally say it’s Bravo,” referencing her tumultuous time with the network.
Earlier this year, in July, Brandi blamed her swollen face on the stress caused by legal battles, particularly related to her involvement in The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip. In January 2023, she faced a lawsuit from Caroline Manzo, a Real Housewives of New Jersey alum, who accused Brandi of inappropriate behavior during filming. Brandi has denied the allegations and, in turn, threatened legal action against Bravo over the impact it had on her health.
Brandi’s candid post highlights the ongoing personal and professional struggles she’s facing, as she continues to deal with the stress and health challenges that have affected her well-being.
