Former “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star Brandi Glanville recently revealed on her podcast that she hasn’t been intimate with anyone since October 2023 due to her facial disfigurement. She shared that she hasn’t had sex, kissed, or made out with anyone, and has been avoiding socializing due to her current situation. Glanville admitted to feeling isolated and miserable as a result of her appearance, which has led her to stay away from others.
After meeting with Dr. Terry Dubrow, Glanville was informed that it could take up to five years for her face to fully recover. The 52-year-old expressed her frustration with the lengthy recovery period, stating that waiting five years is too long for her. Medical experts have been unable to determine the exact cause of her facial disfigurement, leaving Glanville feeling perplexed as well. Despite seeking multiple opinions, no concrete answer has been provided so far.
As a former model, Glanville admitted that she has been hesitant to see anyone due to her physical appearance, which has led her to feel even more isolated. She described her face as “f–ked” and expressed her struggles with finding the silver lining during this health scare. Glanville remains hopeful that her doctors are working on finding a solution and that her recovery is a work in progress. She also shared that there are days when her face appears normal, but the issue is ongoing.
In a conversation with Page Six’s hosts, Glanville discussed her treatment plan and suspicions that she may have been infected by a parasite. She shared that she preferred her face when it was slightly swollen, as opposed to the sinking appearance she currently has. She also mentioned that her face’s appearance fluctuates, sometimes looking normal and sometimes not. Dr. Nicholas Nikolov emphasized the need for Glanville to have healthy tissue before considering any cosmetic procedures to address her facial disfigurement.
Despite the challenges she is facing, Glanville remains hopeful and tries to focus on the positive aspects of her life. She acknowledged that she had enjoyed 50 good years before the health issues arose and is determined to stay optimistic about her recovery. Glanville’s candor about her struggles with her appearance and intimacy highlights the emotional toll that physical health issues can have on an individual. Her openness about her experiences serves as a reminder of the importance of self-care and resilience in the face of adversity.
