TV personality Brandi Glanville opened up about her health issue. For context, Glanville had suffered a mysterious facial disfigurement. It started in 2023, and the treatment reportedly burned a hole in her pocket.

On December 5, TMZ caught up with her in Sherman Oaks, where the reporter told her that it was a “scary process” for her and wanted to get an update. She said:

“The update is I do finally have a diagnosis and I will be sharing that soon. And you know, I have a long road ahead of me to get like fully better, but I finally have an answer. So, I am just thrilled.”

Describing the journey with the health issue, Glanville said:

“It’s been h*ll. Honestly, I have turned into an introvert, like leaving my house, I get the worst anxiety because I have been in my house for two years.”

The interviewer mentioned that Brandi Glanville had been suffering from the condition for two years. Despite that, she only received the diagnosis recently. Glanville corrected him, saying, “Yesterday.” Glanville also revealed that she called her mother, who cried after knowing the update. She further said:

“I mean like sometimes I sit down, I can’t get up. And like it’s so scary and I just was like, ‘I don’t want to live this life.’ So, I had those thoughts which were really threatening cause I have never been like that, you know. I am on an antidepressant and it helps But I have never thought of like not wanting to be here.”

Brandi Glanville on going through the process, shifting houses, and “goGLOW”

Previously, Brandi Glanville said that the health scare was due to a parasite. According to The Daily Mail, she said last month that she was doing better. However, her treatment cost her a fortune as she spent more than $130,000.

While speaking with Us Weekly in November 2025, she said:

“It’s been a slow process, but I’m finally getting back to my normal routine and feeling like myself again.”

It was also the time she shifted to a new residence. When asked how the shift turned out for her, Brandi Glanville said:

“The new space has really helped me reset and focus on creating a calmer, more positive environment for myself. Honestly, the peace. I’m enjoying keeping things simple, spending more time at home, and really taking care of myself.”

Meanwhile, reflecting on co-parenting with her former spouse, Eddie Cibrian, she said:

“It’s been good. We’re in a much better place, and we both really try to keep things steady and supportive for the kids.”

Brandi Glanville explained that she was busy filming her YouTube series. She was concentrated on what she was creating at the moment. She liked how other platforms worked out. She enjoyed supporting brands that helped women feel strong and confident. She chose goGLOW because it was well-known, cared about healthy skin, and gave people a natural glow without harming their skin, which mattered to her.
