Former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Brandi Glanville may not be everyone’s cup of tea. Yet, when she is in a medical crisis, her former co-stars are ready and willing to financially step up. So, which ones are rallying around the mother of two? Keep reading for more details on who is supporting the former model.
Brandi Glanville Has An ‘Embarrassing’ GoFundMe
Over the last few years, followers have watched as Brandi Glanville struggled to figure out what was wrong with her health. She declined, searching for answers, and even believed that she had a parasite crawling in her face. Moreover, she drained her savings in an attempt to save herself, but to no avail. She lost teeth, which was completely debilitating, and now it appears to have gotten worse. However, the RHOBH alum finally has a diagnosis, and she has highly resistant ESBL Klebsiella and Enterobacter with biofilm, Coccidioidomycosis (Valley Fever), Demodex dermatitis, and mononucleosis.
To help with her medical expenses, a GoFundMe has been launched to help as Brandi’s treatments are expected to cost $3,300–$6,000 monthly. This is with her insurance, even though she is “embarrassed” it has come to this. In a twist, a handful of her former co-stars have jumped in to help her financially. Kyle Richards, using her married last name, Umansky, donated $500, while Eileen Davidson donated $300. Camille Grammer pitched in $200, while RHOSLC star Heather Gay donated $500. Vicki Gunvalson, who was on RHUGT with Brandi, gave $500, as did George Santos.
George and Brandi Glanville are both on the new season of Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test, so they must have bonded. The goal is $28K, and it is over halfway there. Camille Grammer explained why it was so important to help her former RHOBH co-star, whom she also appeared on RHUGT Morocco with:
“I remember when she sent me flowers when I had my hysterectomy for uterine cancer. I thought that was very sweet of her. I wanted to return the favor, and I feel bad for what she’s going through.”
She added that they are not close friends and actually had a lot of tension in Morocco. However, she has stood by Brandi after the Morocco debacle and lawsuits.
No Reason For The GFM
Brandi Glanville is not proud of the GoFundMe, but again, she has exhausted her resources. After followers saw how many donations have come through for her, they slammed the former reality star. They felt that there were so many everyday people who were struggling financially, so they had no empathy for Brandi:
- Please help me pay for the treatment for illnesses I brought upon myself with the cosmetic surgeries I’ve had to make a lot of money on TV…the money that I didn’t do the right thing with. The money I p*ssed away.
- This trend of celebrities begging for money with GoFundMe etc is WIIIIIIIILD! So they make all this money and spend it like it will never end.
- Who is Brandi Glanville in this world ? She’s nobody. It’s time for her to find a real job !
