He writes, “The video shows Kate Chastain and I very clearly joking to Brandi. It was absolutely meant in jest, and Brandi’s response clearly communicated she was in on the joke. That said, it was totally inappropriate and I apologize.”
Brandi Glanville is placing Bravo’s guardian firm and others on discover that she’s ready to take them to courtroom over this complete ‘Women Journey’ drama she’s been roped into … and lays out her grievances in no unsure phrases in a letter that her attorneys simply fired off.
The ‘Actual Housewives’ star has lawyered up with the likes of Mark Geragos and Bryan Freedman — massive shot legal professionals in Hollywood — and so they despatched NBCUniversal a requirement letter Thursday that threatens a lawsuit on behalf of their consumer … and so they’re telling the community to protect all potential proof as Brandi prepares for what might be a messy authorized battle.
The letter, obtained by TMZ, spells out precisely why Brandi is contemplating suing right here — and in keeping with her authorized workforce … she looks like she’s been chewed up and spit out by Bravo and all different events concerned in producing and airing a present that makes them tens of millions.
They’re robust, writing … “Over the past year, Ms. Glanville has been subjected to a vicious media campaign based on false allegations of sexual misconduct. The false narrative, which NBC and Shed Media have apparently decided to foment, arises from Ms. Glanville’s experience on ‘Ultimate Girls Trip: Morocco.'”
Her attorneys add … “While the experience has been a nightmare for Ms. Glanville, it is far from the first time Ms. Glanville has been used and abused by NBC, Bravo, Warner Bros., and Shed Media. Indeed, Ms. Glanville has long been taken advantage of by the institutions with which she is indelibly tied personally, professionally, financially, and in the public mind.”
Brandi’s legal professionals declare that whereas she’s been loyal to NBCU over time … she’s solely obtained mistreatment in return — together with this newest saga with fellow ‘Housewife’ Caroline Manzo, who just lately sued Bravo claiming she was the sufferer of sexual misconduct from Brandi through the filming of ‘Women Journey: Morocco,’ however BG defends herself right here.
Lengthy story quick … Brandi’s attorneys say that Caroline’s narrative of being forcibly kissed and groped by Brandi through the filming of that present was truly consensual — with Brandi’s workforce claiming Caroline was inviting that type of habits, which she additionally alleges was facilitated and even inspired by producers through the filming.
There’s one other salacious allegation that Brandi’s attorneys float on this letter they despatched — proof for which isn’t connected of their correspondence — that invokes the identify of Andy Cohen.
Brandi’s workforce claims that in 2022, Andy subjected Brandi to sexual harassment by sending her a video — one through which she claims he boasted of his intent to sleep with one other Bravo star that night time … and allegedly inviting her to observe all of it through Facetime.
Her attorneys characterize her position in all this certainly one of a “sacrificial lamb,” and so they say Brandi is not going to take it anymore … so she’s telling Bravo and co. to get able to go to battle.
