BRANDI Glanville still wants her season of Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip to air amid Caroline Manzo's lawsuit and insists she had no idea there was anything wrong during filming.

Caroline sued Bravo and other affiliate companies in January, claiming she was sexually harassed and assaulted by Brandi while filming then-season four.

The stars – Brandi and Caroline, along with the rest of the cast Gretchen RossiVicki GunvalsonPhaedra ParksCamille GrammerEva Marcille, and Alex McCord – filmed in Morocco in January 2023 and the episodes were meant to air at the end of the year.

Instead, producers decided to replace their season with RHUGT: RHONY Legacy.

The U.S. Sun caught up with Brandi, 51, at the Beverly Hills Rejuvenation Center's grand opening in West Hollywood on Thursday – where she was joined by a host of stars.

Asked if she'd like to see the season air, Brandi said, "I want it to. That being said, at this point, if it does, everyone's gonna be so picky about every little tiny thing.

"It's great, it should air. And that's what I've always wanted. But there's so much drama around it."

Talking of filming, she said, "It was great. We were having the best time. I honestly didn't know there was anything wrong. It was like, this is going to be a great show."

Although Brandi is not listed as a defendant in Caroline's lawsuit, the complaint alleges Brandi went to her rental "obviously inebriated" and forced herself onto her.

The court papers alleged she was kissing her and groping her intimate body parts among other things, without her consent, Variety reported.

She claimed the producers and showrunners encouraged Brandi, which she described as "triggering trauma," due to a past childhood sexual assault.

In February 2023, Brandi was allegedly fired from Bravo after making sexual advances toward Caroline.

Brandi's rep said in response, "While filming, Brandi followed what the producers asked of her, and there was no sexual assault."

Asked if she has stayed in contact with her other castmates from the season, she said on Thursday, "Everyone, we talk all the time. They took my side. But then they were told that they couldn't talk about it, so it was sad because I wanted them.

"They were sticking up for me in my life, but in the press they couldn't. Because in our contracts, you're not allowed to talk about it. I understood it, but it was just difficult."

Asked if she had anything to say to Caroline, she replied, "Just that if she feels some sort of way, it was not made apparent to me, or the girls. I was just giving like everyone lap dances."

Having spent years working in reality TV, she feels it's tough to be involved in shows these days because times have changed.

NEW LAWSUIT

"Reality TV cannot exist in this world, because the producers want you to become unhinged, and they push, they want you to be like crazy, and then when you're crazy, they're like, 'oh someone call HR.'

"We've never had HR on a reality [show] before, so they're pushing us to do things that we're gonna get in trouble for."

Brandi has a lot going on in her life, as she has also accused Watch What Happens Live host Andy Cohen of sexual harassment.

She revealed she felt "disgusted" and "trapped" by Andy in a legal letter sent to Bravo's parent company, NBCUniversal, along with Warner Bros. and production company Shed Media.

At Thursday's event, Brandi admitted she was "very nervous" and feeling "shaky," explaining, "This is like my first real outing since all of this drama. It's been a difficult time."

In a legal letter, Bradi's lawyers wrote, "Ms. Glanville herself has been a victim of sexual harassment at Bravo by none other than Andy Cohen. 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.

"Mr. Cohen was Ms. Glanville's boss at the time and exercised complete and total control over her career. 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."
