The former 'Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' has come to the defense of her former rival following Kenya's departure from 'The Real Housewives of Atlanta', accusing Bravo producers of double standards.
- June 27, 2024
AceShowbiz - Brandi Glanville, former star of "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills", recently defended Kenya Moore after Bravo decided to part ways with her. Moore, 53, was allegedly dismissed for sharing explicit pictures of her "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" castmate Brittany Eady performing oral sex. Moore retaliated against the network, calling it "toxic" in a heartfelt Instagram post, while expressing gratitude for her "blessed" life away from the drama.
Glanville took to social media to question Bravo's decision and the ethics of its producers. "Women are physically fighting on ['The Real Housewives of New Jersey'] & that seems to be ok with producers. Where is HR now?" she tweeted. Glanville also insinuated that producers might have pushed Moore to show the explicit images, accusing the network of enabling and then punishing their "villains."
Unfortunately, this isn't Glanville's first issue with Bravo. She also accused Bravo's executive producer Andy Cohen of sexual harassment. According to Glanville, Cohen sent her a provocative video in 2022 where he implied he wanted to sleep with another Bravo star while thinking of her. Cohen later clarified that his remarks were meant in jest.
Interestingly, Glanville and Moore have a history of tension. Both women clashed on "The Celebrity Apprentice" in 2014. At one point, Moore infamously claimed Glanville's ex-husband Eddie Cibrian "left her for a younger, prettier woman," while Glanville allegedly called Moore "fat." Despite their rocky past, Glanville stood firmly by Moore's side during this controversy.
Page Six revealed that a potential return for Moore is not on the cards, at least for now. An insider commented that production did not encourage Moore to release the racy photos. Meanwhile, the response from Bravo remains pending.
Glanville's outspokenness spotlights the ethical challenges and controversies in reality TV production, raising questions about the role of producers and the real impact on the lives of cast members. As she aptly put it, "Create the villain, enable the villain, praise the villain, then punish the villain, for being... a villain."
