RHOBH alum Brandi Glanville says Andy Cohen has not apologized to her for his alleged “mistreatment” and “inappropriate” behavior; demands personal apology from her former boss.
On Monday, Brandi Glanville claimed that Andy Cohen has not personally apologized to her amid her allegation of sexual harassment.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum took to Twitter on Monday, tweeting that she has “not received a personal apology from anyone.”
She continued, “I saw an apology that Andy posted TO HIS FANS for his mistreatment of me and inappropriateness.”
A source tells Page Six that Brandi Glanville didn’t get a private apology from Andy Cohen because she “went public with her complaint two years after continuing a friendship, without ever mentioning anything personally, so it seems Andy followed suit with the public apology.”
On Thursday, February 22, Andy Cohen issued an apology on Twitter after Brandi Glanville went public with a legal letter accusing him of sexual harassment.
The Watch Watch What Happens Live host insisted that the video was sent in “jest.”
“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,” Andy Cohen wrote.
Attorneys Bryan J. Freedman and Mark Geragos, who represent Brandi, have accused Andy of sending the RHOBH alum an inappropriate video in 2022.
“Ms. Glanville herself has been a victim of sexual harassment at Bravo by none other than Andy Cohen,” the letter read. The letter was filed in Los Angeles and was obtained by numerous media outlets, including PEOPLE.
“In a video sent by Mr. Cohen to Ms. Glanville in 2022, Mr. Cohen — appearing obviously inebriated — boasted of his intention to sleep with another Bravo star that night while thinking of her and invited her to watch via Facetime,” the letter continued.
“Mr. Cohen was Ms. Glanville’s boss at the time and exercised complete and total control over her career,” the letter further 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.”
Meanwhile, Brandi’s attorneys have also scoffed at Andy’s “fake” apology.
“Any boss who is clearly inebriated encouraging their employee by Facetime video to watch their boss have sex with another employee constitutes sexual harassment, plain and simple, under any definition, even one concocted by NBC,” Brandi Glanville’s lawyers, Bryan Freedman and Mark Geragos told Us Weekly in a statement on Friday, February 23.
Their statement continued: “Why is Andy Cohen getting a pass? Any other supervisor at Comcast/NBC who engaged in this behavior would be fired immediately on the spot. It is no excuse to say that this was a joke.”
Part one of the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills season 13 reunion airs Feb. 28. at 8 p.m. on Bravo.
