Brandi Glanville hasn't been a full-time cast member on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills since season five. Over the last few seasons, she has made the most of her cameos as a "friend" to the other housewives. Many fans of the show think she deserves her diamond back, and apparently so do her sons.
Despite only making guest appearances in season 10, Glanville was at the center of the drama after revealing allegations that she hooked up with Denise Richards. The claims rocked the entire cast and boiled over into the three-part reunion. While Richards denied the allegations, Glanville responded by revealing private text messages to support her claims. In retaliation, Richards slapped Glanville and other cast members with cease-and-desist letters before leaving the show after two seasons. Though she wasn't present at the reunion, Glanville continues to make her voice heard on her podcast and social media.
There has been speculation about whether or not Glanville will return to RHOBH full-time in season 11. Following Richards exit, and Teddi Mellencamp's termination, there's room for new or returning housewives. However, Bravo has yet to confirm or deny Glanville's future on the hit series. Glanville took it upon herself to confront executive producer Andy Cohen on the latest episode of her Brandi Glanville Unfiltered podcast. After reminding Glanville that she doesn't have any friends on the cast, Cohen went on to tease how "close" she is to returning full-time. "I would say you're as close to being back as you've been in a long time," the Watch What Happens Live host told Glanville.
Then, Glanville got some support from her 17-year-old son Mason, who revealed to Cohen their father's approval to feature them on the show this time around. "Now that we are allowed to be on the show, are you gonna give my mom a second chance?" Mason asked Cohen before boldly explaining why Glanville "deserves" her job back. "Because she deserves it. You kind of milked her for everything this season to make some views and stuff and she hasn't gotten even half as much as the other Housewives."
While Cohen was shocked by the teen's upfront approach, he agreed that he "[made] really good points." In addition to her eldest son, Glanville had her 13-year-old son Jake film a video pleading for Cohen to allow his mom a full-time seat at the housewives' table. "I was wondering if you would do the right thing and give my mom her job back like you said you would," the pre-teen requested. "Because she was like the main focus of the whole season and like get her money back so we can move out of this place and get her what she deserves," he added. Her son's comments to Andy come amid contract negotiations for season 11. There are reports that Kathy Hilton and Caitlyn Jenner are both in talks to join RHOBH. Nothing has been set in stone, including Glanville's possible return.
