Brandi Glanville is alleging she received a video from Andy Cohen in 2022 in which the Watch What Happens Live host was “obviously inebriated” and requested she watch him have sex with another Bravolebrity.

In a letter sent to NBC, Shed Media, and Warner Bros by her attorneys, the 51-year-old Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum accuses Andy, 55, of sexual harassment and says he bragged about wanting to sleep with the unnamed Bravo star as he thought about her.

“Mr. Cohen was Ms. Glanville’s boss at the time and exercised complete and total control over her career,” the letter, obtained by Page Six on February 22, stated. “This was an extraordinary abuse of power that left Ms. Glanville feeling trapped and disgusted. It is inconceivable that Mr. Cohen remains in his post in spite of this behavior and harkens back to the bad old days of Matt Lauer and NBC News when profits were prioritized over people.”

Although reps for Andy were contacted by the outlet for comment, they declined.

Brandi’s lawyers, attorneys Bryan Freedman and Mark Geragos, also accused NBC and Shed Media of “deliberately misconstruing an interaction” between Brandi and a production executive named Shawn Loesser.

“Mr. Loesser has a history of soliciting and/or engaging in sexual relations with female reality stars under his purview,” the attorneys claimed. “Ms. Glanville is no exception. Mr. Loesser has always been transparent about his attraction to Ms. Glanville.”

In an additional statement to Page Six, Bryan Freedman said, “Mark Geragos and I have heard from thousands of current and former cast members on reality shows about the physical and emotional harm inflicted on them by virtue of their participation. NBC, Bravo, Warner Bros., and Shed Media intentionally obscure their legal rights, bind them to illegal contracts, and knowingly cause them to suffer in silence. We know there are untold numbers of innocent victims who have yet to tell their stories or seek legal redress.”

“We encourage all of them to contact us and join our growing team as we fight for change in this sordid industry,” he added.

Brandi’s allegations against Andy come just weeks after she was named in a lawsuit filed by Real Housewives of New Jersey alum Caroline Manzo, 62, who she filmed with for the fourth season of Real Housewives: Ultimate Girls Trip.

In Caroline’s lawsuit, she accused the Peacock series’ production companies of failing to protect her amid what she claims was an unwanted sexual encounter with Brandi. As Caroline alleged, Brandi “forcibly squeezed” her cheeks, thrust “her tongue in [Caroline’s] mouth,” and humped her amid filming.

Brandi has denied Caroline’s claims against her.
