Brandi Glanville shares new diagnosis after after parasite concerns return

Brandi Glanville says doctors have found a benign tumour in her face as she continues to battle a mystery condition that has affected her appearance for nearly three years.

The former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star, 53, spoke about the diagnosis on the latest episode of her Unfiltered podcast.

Glanville said doctors discovered a non-cancerous tumour in one of the lymph nodes in her face after she noticed a lump that would not go away.

“I have a benign tumor in one of my lymph nodes in my face,” she said, explaining that it could be the reason fluid continues to move around her face.

The reality star said the condition has made everyday life difficult and that she can only wear makeup for a short time before needing to remove it.

"I can wear makeup for like 15 minutes, and [then] I have to take it off," Glanville shared.

Glanville added that several doctors initially dismissed the lump as scar tissue.

“Every doctor that I’ve showed, they’re like, ‘It’s just scar tissue,’” she said, adding that she felt her concerns were not always taken seriously.

The latest diagnosis comes just weeks after Glanville revealed that the facial condition she previously blamed on a “parasite” had returned.

Earlier this month, she told listeners she was still experiencing changes in her face and had no clear answers despite seeing numerous specialists.

Glanville has been dealing with the health issue since 2023. Over the years, she has visited more than 20 doctors and said she has spent around $200,000 seeking treatment and medical advice.

In February, she revealed that doctors had identified a ruptured silicone breast implant as a possible factor behind some of her health problems.

Despite the new diagnosis, Glanville said her search for answers is far from over as she continues to look for the cause of the condition that has affected her appearance and quality of life for nearly three years.
