Brandi Glanville has been grappling with an unknown health issue that has severely affected her face, spending over $70,000 in her search for answers. The reality TV star recently shared her ongoing struggle with the mysterious condition, which has caused facial swelling and disfigurement. In an interview with Entertainment Tonight, Glanville revealed that after numerous tests and consultations with doctors, they suspect the cause could be a parasite. However, nothing has been confirmed.
Glanville’s symptoms began after her trip to Morocco for The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip, where she believes contaminated food may have triggered the issues. Since then, she’s been dealing with ongoing discomfort and frustration, as treatments offer only temporary relief. Despite the medical bills mounting, Glanville said she hasn’t been able to work for the past two years. This has further complicated her situation. While doctors remain unsure, she’s become increasingly frustrated by the lack of a clear diagnosis.
In an interview with Entertainment Tonight, Brandi Glanville also opened up about posting a photo on X (formerly Twitter) showing the facial disfigurement. The reality TV star shared that she was tired of the rumors suggesting she was constantly undergoing plastic surgery. She said, “First of all, I couldn’t afford it if I wanted it. Secondly, no.”
Glanville also added that that her decision to stay home and avoid red carpet events was due to her discomfort with her appearance. She said, “This is why I’m sitting at home. This is why I’m not on red carpets. Because I don’t want to go out like this.” As 2025 draws near, Glanville expressed her hope for a resolution to her health issues.
