In an acerbic letter to NBC, Shed Media, and Warner Bros. that Page Six was able to obtain, Brandi Glanville claims that Bravo head honcho Andy Cohen has been harassing her sexually.
The 51-year-old former cast member of “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” asserts that in 2022, the 55-year-old host of “Watch What Happens Live” sent her a video in which he looked “obviously inebriated.” According to the letter, Cohen allegedly “boasted” in the video that he was “thinking” of Glanville and that he wanted to “sleep with another Bravo star.” He also invited the former “Housewife” to witness the sex act over FaceTime.
The letter did not reveal the identity of the reality star that the father of two supposedly desired to meet up with. The letter further notes that “Mr. Cohen was Ms. Glanville’s boss at the time and exercised complete and total control over her career.”
“Ms. Glanville felt trapped and disgusted by this extraordinary abuse of power.” It is unfathomable that Mr. Cohen is still in his position despite this behavior, which harkens back to the days when NBC News and Matt Lauer put profits before people. In response to the charge on X Thursday, Cohen wrote that the sex joke was “meant in jest.”
Andy Cohen’s Responds to Brandi’s Claim
Andy Cohen has just refuted Brandi’s claim that he sent her the video in question, stating that she is exaggerating the situation.
“The video clearly shows Kate Chastain and I joking with Brandi,” he writes. It was certainly intended in jest, and Brandi’s response made it abundantly evident that she was participating in the prank. However, it was completely inappropriate; I sincerely apologize.”
The video shows Kate Chastain and I very clearly joking to Brandi. It was absolutely meant in jest, and Brandi’s response clearly communicated she was in on the joke. That said, it was totally inappropriate and I apologize.

Brandi Glanville has issued a letter to Bravo’s parent company and others that accuse them of tampering with her ‘Girls Trip’ controversy into which she has been drawn… in which she sets out her complaints in no uncertain terms. Her attorneys have just terminated the letter.
The ‘Real Housewives’ star has retained prominent Hollywood attorneys such as Mark Geragos and Bryan Freedman. On Thursday, they issued a demand letter to NBCUniversal that threatens legal action on their client’s behalf… and instructs the network to preserve any potential evidence while Brandi prepares for a potentially messy legal battle.
