Brandi Glanville Makes First Public Appearance Amid Facial Crisis

The reality television star battled a “parasite” crisis and several health concerns recently but looked much livelier in her recent appearance.

Earlier, plastic surgeon Dr. Terry Dubrow connected with Glanville over the phone to discuss her facial crisis and how to repair it.

Glanville recently attended Twitch streamer Amouranth’s Winter Wonderland birthday party held in Burbank, California. Her appearance marked the first time she was seen in public following recent facial troubles.

Daily Mail obtained pictures of Glanville that showed her in a leopard-patterned Santa hat, which she paired with a similarly patterned furry coat worn over a black dress. She completed her stylish look with black thigh-high boots.

The television personality posed with other attendees and looked in high spirits in the pictures. She also danced during the party, showing she had overcome her recent struggles.

Glanville’s appearance at Amouranth’s birthday party comes after she revealed she had dissolved all her facial fillers after previously disclosing that she believed there was a “parasite” under her skin.

She took to X on December 13 to reveal that she had dissolved all the fillers in her face, adding that she had seen the best doctors at Cedar Sinai and all those they referred her to.

The mother of two also shared that there were no issues between her and Dr. Dubrow, writing, “I have zero drama with @DrDubrow I appreciate all the help I can get.”

Glanville felt the need to clarify that there were no tensions between her and Dr. Dubrow after he spoke to TMZ and shut down her claims that a parasite was behind her facial problems.

The “Botched” star said he believed Glanville’s sunken cheeks and distorted face likely resulted from an infection. Dr. Dubrow, the husband of “The Real Housewives of Orange County” star Heather Dubrow, also stressed that Glanville should get help from her doctors instantly as her condition could be a “ticking time bomb.”

Glanville took the plastic surgeon’s advice. Dr. Dubrow revealed to TMZ that he spoke with her over the phone, and she described how difficult it had been for her to get a diagnosis for her facial problem. He also revealed that they would meet at his Los Angeles office, adding that he may ultimately recommend surgery.

The 52-year-old alerted her fans about her facial crisis in July when she shared a picture of her disfigured face in a post on X. In the post’s caption, Glanville shared that it made her “miserable and depressed.”

She added, “I’m not even gonna share the picture of when it sinks in. Stress will kill you. How is your wealth?” The TV personality concluded, “Take care of yourself people, thank you Bravo. I couldn’t even work if I wanted to at this point.”

Earlier this month, Glanville shared another selfie showing her misshapen face on Instagram and revealed that her troubles started during her time on “The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip.”

In January, Glanville told Entertainment Tonight about her angioedema diagnosis. She claimed that her physical nightmare started in August 2023 when she experienced unexpected swelling in her lips and face followed by anaphylactic shock.

She said at the time, “I’ve had some health issues that have affected by ability to talk. My ability to taste food, my face basically would swell up, like I would have anaphylactic shock, go into anaphylactic shock constantly and I saw 7 doctors and their answer to it was it was stress-induced angioedema.”

Following the allegations, Glanville was removed from the reality TV show, while Peacock described her behavior as “unacceptable.” Glanville denied the allegations, claiming she was advised not to discuss the incident.

This December, Glanville updated Entertainment Tonight about her facial crisis, revealing she had been on medications throughout the year and couldn’t socialize. She also explained that she could see and feel the unknown “parasite” moving inside her face if she “messes” with it, describing it as “tiny bubbles bursting” on her skin.
