Real Housewives Star Glanville Reveals Health Struggles And Painful Treatments Amid Crisis

In a candid disclosure that has left fans both sympathetic and concerned, The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star has opened up about the persistent health struggles she has endured over the years. The 52-year-old former model has been in the public eye for her glamorous lifestyle, yet her recent revelations expose a far more challenging reality behind the scenes.

Glanville’s health issues have been a subject of media attention since medical experts suggested that she might be suffering from a “parasite” jumping around her face. In December 2024, she revealed that she had lost nearly half a dozen teeth and had been in and out of hospital trying to uncover the root cause of her deteriorating condition. “Some say it’s stress induced edema,” the 52-year-old said at the time, highlighting the uncertainty surrounding her diagnosis and the intense physical toll it has taken on her, according to the Unilad.

In a new video posted to Twitter, Glanville did not hold back as she showcased her ongoing battle with another troubling health issue. The clip, which quickly gained traction online, shows her visibly shaking while using what appeared to be a lymphatic drainage machine.

These machines, typically used to reduce pain, stimulate fluid movement, and prevent the worsening of certain diseases, have become a regular part of her treatment regimen. Accompanied by a heartfelt caption, Glanville wrote: “Ok so about 5 years ago the boys & I had black mold poisoning from a toxic house we lived in we got a six figure settlement buuuuuut this is CRAZY! I’m on my emphatic drainage machine. ⁦@DrDubrow let’s get this f*.”

Her reliance on medical interventions does not end there. Glanville has been working closely with renowned cosmetic surgeon Dr Terry Dubrow, who has been assisting her in tackling the disfigurement issues caused by her condition.

“Yes guys @DrDubrow took 4 tiny biopsies from my face and neck so we can continue to get better,” she shared in another post, adding: “[Easy peasy] no pain. I was in and out in 30 minutes. Now we wait.” The detailed accounts of her treatments have provided her followers with a rare glimpse into the rigorous process of managing her health challenges.

The response from fans has been overwhelmingly supportive. Many have taken to social media to offer words of encouragement and empathy. One user wrote, “Oh sweetie, you are in my prayers… illness has no favoritism … I [pray] you get well soon I hope you’re not suffering and they find the answer.”

Another commented, “Omg. I’m so sorry you’re experiencing this & it took going through so much to finally arrive at some form of relief.” A third fan expressed, “You have been through so much. I really feel bad for you. I’m sure you hear that all the time, but I want you to know I really mean it and I wish I could help you in some way.”

As Glanville continues her journey to overcome these debilitating health issues, her bravery in sharing such personal details is resonating with many, reminding us that behind every glamorous façade lies a story of struggle and resilience.
