Former American model and current reality TV star Brandi Glanville’s net worth is guesstimated to be $2 million.
The second of three children, Brandi L. Glanville was born to Guy Glanville and Judith Swinehart in Monterey, California, on November 16, 1972. The Sacramento-raised girl flew to Paris at the age of 16 in pursuit of a career in modeling and was signed on by Elite Model Management. Within one year, she was appearing on the catwalks of Paris, New York and LA. Her colourful modeling career, spanning 17 years, comprised working for Armani, Chanel and Gucci along with appearing in such magazines as Cosmopolitan and Glamour.
How did she make her millions?
Glanville first appeared on episode four of Bravo TV’s Second Season of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, in 2011. After many appearances as a “friend of the Housewives”, which increased her popularity with audiences, she was cast in the reunion episode of the show in January-February 2012. End of April 2012, Glanville replaced Camille Grammer as ‘official Housewife’ in the third season of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.
The outspoken Glanville’s time on the show, before she left in the fifth season, was sensational because of her altercations with cast members such as Kyle Richards, Lisa Rinna and Lisa Vanderpump, which is the main reason for her to be cast in the show, in the first place. Glanville was brought back many times as a guest in the sixth season. Her salary was $175,000 per season for the show.
