BRANDI Glanville ‘didn’t mean to throw shade’ at ex-husband, Eddie Cibrian and his current wife, LeAnn Rimes when she tweeted about not being invited to celebrate Christmas with them.
The former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star, 47, was accused of blasting her ex by claiming she was simply asked to pose in the seemingly happy family picture.
After sharing the seemingly-merry photo and receiving compliments about them being all together, Brandi took to Twitter to make something really “clear.”
She wrote: “I did not spend Christmas Day with my ex, his wife & family. Had I been invited I would have. I was simply picking up the boys car still running in the driveway and asked to take a quick pic.”
But now, sources tell Hollywood Life that Brandi didn’t mean to be rude – and just wanted to set fans straight.
“Brandi wasn’t intentionally trying to throw shade at Eddie and LeAnn” says the site’s source. “She’s absolutely in a better place with both Eddie and LeAnn [but] she didn’t want her holiday photo of their whole family being misconstrued. She just wants what is best for her boys and if that means doing everything she can to get along with her ex, then so be it.”
Brandi’s tweet came after her former co-star, Kim Richards, and fans gushed over the picture.
Kim had posted: “Come a long way, all of you!!! Best thing for all… Finally you all have Christmas with peace & joy. Means so much to our children.”
The Drinking and Dating author revealed more details about the holiday with Eddie, because she didn’t want it “getting twisted.”
She said she was just there to pick up the two sons she shares with Eddie, 46, and was asked to be in the picture.
When a follower asked why the group took a photo, she bluntly shared: “I didn’t ask honey.”
Though the reality star also revealed she loves “everyone in that pic” and they “are all in a good place,” they were all in a much more sour place until recently.
Brandi and LeAnn had been feuding since the Can’t Fight the Moonlight singer apparently first started hooking up with Eddie while the was still married to the former model.
It was only in 2018, during a birthday party, that the two found themselves in a deep conversation, airing their grievances and trying to find some common ground.
Eddie and Brandi’s kids — Jake, 12, and Mason, 16 — ended up being what helped the women end their feud.
On the Make Speidi Famous Again podcast, Brandi said: “They love her and she loves them — it’s like everyone’s happy.
“I think the hardest part was just her and I going at it, and now that that’s done, the kids are super happy.”
She added: “I always say if you can’t beat them, join them.”
“She’s always going to post family photos, she’s always gonna say ‘my boys,’ she’s always gonna do that.
“And I just have to accept it or I can continue to fight with her, which I don’t want to do.”
