Brandi Glanville criticizes Caroline Manzo’s lawsuit and claims Manzo has “buyer’s remorse”

The former reality TV star later came forward, saying Brandi Glanville, her co-star, sexually assaulted her and production stood by while it happened. The drama between Manzo, Glanville, and Bravo has now spiraled into a lawsuit. Manzo is suing. Although Glanville is not named in the lawsuit, she is fed up with the allegations. Following Manzo’s latest lawsuit, Glanville accused Manzo on social media of lying about what happened between them. She even suggested that Manzo had “buyer’s remorse.”

Brandi Glanville has spent more than a year dealing with the fallout from the sexual assault allegations against Caroline Manzo, and it seems she’s had enough. Shortly after court documents were leaked to the media, Glanville took to X (formerly Twitter) to set the record straight. In a multi-part tirade, Glanville claims there was no sexual assault. She accused Caroline Manzo of “buyer’s remorse.” She even claimed the New Jersey native was an active and willing participant in the situation.

Glanville claims her history on reality TV should speak for itself. She noted in her rant that she spent 13 years on television and never had a complaint filed against her. However, fans have pointed out that during her time on TV, Glanville was known for being physically open with other cast members. The Real Housewives of Beverly HillsStill, Glanville insists she did not attack Manzo, as court documents suggest.

This is not the first time Glanville has spoken out about the incident. In March 2023, shortly after news of the incident surfaced, she spoke out on X (formerly Twitter) about what happened. She insisted that production told her to “bring the party.” Glanville said she felt like she had been “set up.”

Will the season ever air?

It doesn’t look like fans will ever get a chance to assess the situation based on original footage. Although the season was filmed, it looks like it will never see the light of day. While neither Peacock nor Bravo have commented on the fate of the lost season, several Bravo stars have voiced their theories. According to The Daily Beast, both Vicki Gunvalson and Camille Myers believe the show will never appear on the streaming service provider.

Peacock and Bravo are less sure. If the season does air, it will likely be long after the lawsuit is settled. There is no timeline for the lawsuit, and it could be years before Bravo and Manzo come to an agreement. In short, fans shouldn’t expect to see the season anytime soon, if ever.
