According to the 62-year-old Real Housewives of New Jersey alum’s court docket paperwork, she feels that the networks and people employed by them prompted Brandi, 51, previously of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, to have interaction in “sexually offensive and harassing content.”

“Defendants, including Bravo, regularly ply the Real Housewives cast with alcohol, cause them to become severely intoxicated, and then direct, encourage and/or allow them to sexually harass other cast members because that is good for ratings,” the lawsuit, obtained by Page Six on January 26, states. “Caroline Manzo is a victim of those harmful actions.”

While Caroline accused Brandi of forcing herself on her with out consent, kissing her, and going so far as to “[mount] her,” the previous RHONJ solid member shouldn’t be suing Brandi over the supposed “traumatic” habits. In reality, she really signaled to posts shared by Brandi on X, previously often known as Twitter, to again up her case towards Bravo, Peacock, and the opposite events.

According to the report, Caroline is suing for “negligence, sexual harassment, sex/gender discrimination, sexual battery, and other causes” that violate legal guidelines in each California and New York.

“We are outraged by Bravo, Peacock, and NBC’s conduct and look forward to having the issues decided by a jury. Sexual harassment should never be entertainment!” Caroline’s lawyer, Derek Smith, instructed Page Six in an announcement.

Due to the various claims made in regard to what went down throughout filming on RHUGT season 4, a premiere date has but to be set. And, though it has but to be confirmed, many consider the episodes won’t ever make it to air.

As for Brandi, she not too long ago spoke to Entertainment Tonight concerning the drama of RHUGT, making comparable statements to these shared in Caroline’s lawsuit.

“I think the [RHUGT] shows are the wild west. They don’t know what [they’re] doing yet. We can’t work 19-hour days and be fueled with alcohol all day,” she stated. “No, they don’t force you but they want you to and you want to please the producers. I think that you know when we’re all exhausted and we’re doing 20 events a day working 19 hours, fully wasted it’s not a safe environment for any of us and that’s what the [RHUGT] are.”
