CONTROVERSY

The first controversy the former model and television personality, Brandi Glanville was known for was her divorce from her husband. He had cheated on the marriage consistently and finally left her for county singer LeAnn Rimes. The divorce was a very public one. There has been hostility between the two women since that time. Very recently Brandi on her podcast stated that she was ready to put the past behind her. She claimed to have written a song for LeAnn Rimes who she said was not doing so well anymore. It seems the statement was still born out of the hostility that is yet to be spent.

Brandi consistently got into feuds with fellow members of the Real House Wives of Beverly Hills reality television show while she was on it. Her feud with Kyle Richards was the most notorious. She was also once accused of racism when she made a comment about Joyce Giraud, an African American member of the show. She had said that Joyce Giraud could not swim because she was black. Brandi apologized for this statement, saying that she never meant to seem racist.
