Brandi Glanville Credits Co-Stars for Support Amid Medical Crisis

The GoFundMe initiative, organized by friend Gina Rodriguez, sought to raise $28,000 to offset costs that Glanville previously estimated at $7,000 per week. Beyond Richards, who contributed $500, the effort drew support from figures such as Leah McSweeney, Heather Gay, Vicki Gunvalson, and former congressman George Santos. Glanville described the collective gesture as a "sisterhood," emphasizing that she intends to reimburse donors once her health stabilizes and she is able to return to full-time work.

This financial strain coincides with Glanville’s recent participation in season 5 of Fox’s Special Forces. Her time on the show proved short-lived; she withdrew following a medical emergency triggered by a high-impact jump from a helicopter. Despite the early exit, she characterized the experience as a personal milestone. The star remains sidelined from professional obligations while undergoing treatment for a benign tumor, though she has floated the idea of joining other reality projects, such as Mormon Wives, once she recovers.
