Brandi Glanville suffers facial burns after experiment goes awry
Brandi Glanville shared what happened on TikTok on Aug 2, that is a little startling and also a little painful-looking. Photo: TNS An experiment intended to rid The Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills alum Brandi Glanville of a facial parasite left the former reality TV star with chemical burns. In a short video posted to TikTok on Aug 2 that is a little startling and also a little painful-looking, Glanville, 52, said that she decided to use Nair to try to eradicate the parasite. However, the popular hair removal product aggravated her skin, leaving her with apparent chemical burns. "I know I look attractive," she joked. "Good news, you don't have to spend a lot of money on peels and lasers anymore." During the clip, she referred to the parasite as "Caroline," a possible reference to her Real Housewives rival Caroline Manzo. In January 2023, Manzo accused Glanville of sexual assault during filming. This led to both of them departing the Morocco set of The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip . That was also where Glanville previously said she might have contracted the parasite. Glanville has denied all claims Manzo has made against her, calling them absurd, Page Six reports. In her TikTok video, Glanville claims the Nair successfully moved the parasite ("Caroline") to a different part of her face upon application. "Nair is the fountain of youth, I figured it out," she said. "But I overdid it … seven minutes, don't do it." The first time Glanville shared information regarding the parasite, she claimed that she had consulted "every doctor under the sun" but to no avail. The mysterious condition was said to have left her with frequent facial swelling and missing teeth. She told ET in December 2024 that she'd suspected a parasite had made its way into her system after the filming in Morocco. "We had food sitting out for hours on end, and some of it was meat," she said, adding that medical complications began six months later. Glanville claimed that she had since spent more than US$70,000 (RM296,099.50) on noninvasive procedures to pinpoint exactly what was going on. Notably, she was on IV antibiotics that alleviated swelling but proved to be too expensive. "I've been on meds this whole year. I don't socialise. I don't go out," she said at the time. – Los Angeles Times/Tribune News Service

Brandi Glanville Suffers Facial Burns After Using Nair to Treat Suspected Parasite in Viral TikTok Video
Brandi Glanville, former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star, recently shared that she suffered chemical burns on her face after using Nair, a popular hair removal product, in an attempt to remove what she believes is a parasite. In a TikTok video posted Sunday, the reality TV alum showed visible irritation on her face and spoke openly about the experience. 'I know I look attractive,' Glanville joked in the clip. 'Good news, you don't have to spend a lot of money on peels and lasers anymore.' Brandi Glanville said she used Nair in hopes of getting rid of a facial parasite she jokingly referred to as 'Caroline,' possibly referencing her former Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip co-star Caroline Manzo. Glanville blames Morocco filming for ongoing health problems The issue dates back to January 2023, when Glanville and Manzo both exited the Morocco set of The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip. Manzo had accused Glanville of inappropriate behavior during filming, a claim Glanville has strongly denied, calling the allegations 'absurd,' according to Page Six. Glanville previously told Entertainment Tonight in December 2024 that she believed she contracted the suspected parasite while filming in Morocco. 'We had food sitting out for hours on end, and some of it was meat,' she said. Glanville said that medical symptoms began about six months later. Here's what she said about the results of the Nair experiment In her TikTok video, Glanville shared that she applied the Nair for too long and ended up with visible chemical burns. 'Nair is the fountain of youth, I figured it out,' she said. 'But I overdid it…seven minutes, don't do it.' She claimed that the application caused the parasite, referred to as 'Caroline', to move to a different part of her face. However, she did not clarify whether any medical professional confirmed this movement. Since the onset of her symptoms, Glanville said she has consulted 'every doctor under the sun' without success. The condition, she claimed, has caused facial swelling and even tooth loss. 'I've been on meds this whole year. I don't socialize. I don't go out,' she said in the ET interview. At one point, she was on IV antibiotics that helped reduce swelling but were too costly to continue. Glanville said she has spent more than USD 70,000 on non-invasive medical procedures in hopes of getting a diagnosis and relief.

'I'm choosing to break free from this cycle': Nonku Williams quits 'The Real Housewives of Durban'
As viewers of The Real Housewives of Durban eagerly await the last few episodes and the upcoming reunion, the longest standing contestant Nonku Williams dropped a bombshell on her timeline announcing her decision to leave the show. In a lengthy Instagram post, Nonku said she would not attend the upcoming reunion, citing a toxic environment and its negative effect on her mental health. 'As I take a moment to reflect on my journey with The Real Housewives of Durban, I'm compelled to share my truth with you. After much reflection, I've made the decision not to return to the show and to distance myself from the reunion. It's not an easy choice, but it's one I must make,' she said. 'Watching myself on screen, I'm confronted with a reality that's hard to accept. The woman I see isn't someone I recognise or respect. I've played a role in shaping this narrative but I'm also a product of the show's dynamics. The relentless pursuit of drama, the pitting of women against each other, the gossip and the put-downs — it's a toxic cycle that wears me down. 'As I look to the future, I'm reminded of my responsibilities — to myself, my children, my faith and the community. I want to make a difference, to leave a positive mark on the world. This show, with its destructive tendencies, isn't the platform for that. 'I've come to realise I have a responsibility to myself to prioritise my wellbeing, to protect my mental health and to surround myself with positivity. I have a responsibility to my children to be a good role model, to show them the importance of kindness, empathy and compassion. I have a responsibility to my faith to uphold the values that are important to me, to be a light in the darkness and to spread love and kindness. I have a responsibility to the community to be a force for good, to uplift and inspire others and to make a positive impact.' Nonku, who has been a reality TV star for nearly five years and has also featured in a spin-off show called The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip — South Africa, thanked her fans for their support. 'I'm choosing to break free from this cycle, to seek a path that uplifts and inspires. I'm choosing to use my platform to spread love, kindness and positivity. I'm choosing to be a role model for my children and for others who may be watching. I'm choosing to prioritise my wellbeing and to take care of myself. I'm choosing to be authentic, to be true to myself and to live a life that reflects my values. 'As I close this chapter, I hope my story can serve as testament to the power of self-awareness, courage and redemption.'

I forgave LeAnn Rimes for stealing my husband but we're feuding again over bold move with my son, says Brandi Glanville

Most read in Celebrity For Mason's 18th birthday party in 2021, Brandi, Eddie and LeAnn celebrated at STK Steakhouse in Los Angeles.

On one occasion she even In an interview with The Sun in January this year, she said: 'It was not long after Eddie had left me for her. 'It was Eddie's day with our sons, and he'd taken them to a football match. I found out about Eddie and LeAnn's affair in a magazine Brandi 'LeAnn was with them. They're my kids, so obviously I was going to go too. 'When I got there, I saw LeAnn. She shouldn't have been there - it was too early in the relationship. 'She's sitting there, she's got my two-year-old, Jake, on my lap. 'I lost it. I walked over to her, grabbed Jake, and said to LeAnn: 'I will f***ing kill you.

I really wanted to hurt her.' But ten years later, Brandi, Eddie and LeAnn buried the hatchet and became besties. 'It's the old saying, time heals,' said Brandi in the interview this year. 'I've forgiven the two of them for breaking up my family. 'We're friends.' Brandi said the fact that all three were getting on so well makes the episode all the more upsetting. 'I just don't understand it,' she said. Brandi and Eddie met in a nightclub and married in 2001. She thought she'd married her 'Prince Charming' but then in 2008, Eddie made a movie with LeAnn and the fairytale unravelled. She found out about the affair in a magazine. 5 LeAnn told her side of the story to a magazine Credit: US Weekly/American Media, Inc. 5 Brandi with Eddie, LeAnn, and her two sons at an Easter party Credit: Instagram 'Pictures of Eddie and LeAnn kissing in a restaurant were plastered across the pages of a magazine,' she said later. 'It was devastating. I went home, passed out in my closet, and cried and cried. 'She was married at the time, also. This affair was ruining two families.' Brandi hated Eddie and LeAnn. 'It was really ugly,' she said. 'I did not want my kids around her. She had got my husband and she was not getting my children. 'I was out for revenge. 'She knew how to wind me up. I don't think LeAnn understood how she should behave to the mother of her husband's children. "She would say things like, 'I can't wait for them to call me 'mum' and 'I can't wait to make your kids' sandwiches.'" The three of them went to therapy. They saw three separate therapists, but it didn't work. The turning point for Brandi was when her sons told her: 'Mum, all we want is for everyone to get along.' The irony of the present situation is that the reconciliation came about as a result of Brandi's thinking how childish it was to keep having two separate parties for special occasions. 'The boys would have two birthdays, two Christmases. I was like: Why are we having two separate parties? 'Why don't we grow up and have parties all together?' Why, indeed? Both Eddie and LeAnn responded 'positively' to Brandi's suggestion they start having joint parties. 'So we started having birthdays and Christmas at LeAnn and Eddie's house,' Brandi said earlier this year. 'They have a pool, they have a nicer house, it's better for hosting events. It has its advantages. I don't have to host, cook, or clean. 'We do things together as a family. If Jake has wrestling, all four of us will go. It's a family affair.' Things were so civilised that Mason, with Brandi's blessing, was living most of the time at Eddie and LeAnn's house, where he had 'his own space'. Brandi said in January that as Jake would soon be turning 18, she, Eddie and LeAnn were planning to go and look at some colleges together. That, presumably, won't be happening anytime soon.
