AceShowbiz - Brandi Glanville opened up about how stress led her to health issues. In a new interview, the former star of "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" claimed that her health complications, including facial disfigurement, had something to do with her drama involving Caroline Manzo.
Brandi told Entertainment Tonight that her lips and face unexpectedly swelled up in August. "I've had some health issues that have affected my ability to talk. My ability to taste food, my face basically would swell up, like I would have anaphylactic shock, go into anaphylactic shock constantly and I saw 7 doctors and their answer to it was it was stress-induced angioedema," she shared.
"The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip" alum noted that she went to have consultation with seven doctors until she was diagnosed with stress-induced angioedema, a condition where swelling occurs under the skin. She believed that the stress that she had to endure after being accused of sexual misconduct was the one thing to blame for her issues.
"I cried on my birthday. It was on Nov. 16. I cried the whole night, and I thought that was my new normal," she added. "I was just never gonna look the same or feel the same. I was just gonna be this giant pumpkin head and, like, my mouth, even now, I get tired of talking."
Last February, the 51-year-old was forced to leave season 4 of "RHUGT" early after it was said that she kissed Caroline without her consent during filming. Not stopping there, Brandi allegedly touched the "Real Housewives of New Jersey" alum's chest and vaginal area on set. Denying the accusations, she said in the new interview, "I think the 'Girls Trips' shows are the Wild West. They don't know what they're doing yet. We can't work 19-hour days and be fueled with alcohol all day."
"No, they don't force you but they want you to and you want to please the producers. I think that you know when we're all exhausted and we're doing 20 events a day working 19 hours, fully wasted it's not a safe environment for any of us and that's what the 'Girls Trips' are," the "Traitors" alum elaborated.
