Over the years, she also wrote a few books, Drinking and Tweeting: And Other Brandi Blunders and Drinking and Dating, which became New York Times bestsellers.

However, this time, Brandi Glanville has caught the attention of the internet for the reasons she wouldn't have imagined. For the unversed, Brandi has been dealing with a facial deformity for a while now and in an attempt to fix her face, she used a hair removal cream, which ended up giving her some severe chemical burns. Nonetheless, the internet persona has been taking the losses like a champ, and this has reminded the netizens of her relationship with her ex-husband, Eddie Cibrian, which too ended in several burns and blisters. 

Brandi Glanville and Eddie Cibrian's Hollywood romance

Brandi Glanville and Eddie Cibrian crossed paths in the late 1990s through mutual friends. While Brandi worked as a model at the time, Eddie was paving his path as an actor. The duo soon bonded and quickly became a couple. Their chemistry was undeniable, and pretty soon they became one of Hollywood's 'golden couple'. The duo had only been dating for a year when Eddie got down on one knee on New Year's Eve and asked the gorgeous model to be his forever. Brandi Glanville and Eddie Cibrian soon started planning their lavish wedding and tied the knot in April 2001.

Brandi Glanville and Eddie Cibrian's family life

Brandi Glanville and Eddie Cibrian were in love, married, and all set to build a life together. The duo bought a house together and soon after welcomed their first son, Mason, in 2003. Four years later, in 2007, Brandi and Eddie welcomed their second son, Jake. However, while all looked perfect on the surface, a lot started happening behind the scenes, and mostly for the worse. Brandi appeared as the perfect mother and wife, all the while her marriage was slipping away from her.

Eddie Cibrian cheated on his wife, Brandi Glanville, with LeAnn Rimes

In March 2009, Us Weekly broke the news that Eddie Cibrian was having an affair with the country singer, LeAnn Rimes. The news shattered Brandi Glanville and Eddie's relationship. According to reports, Eddie was caught spending 'alone time' with LeAnn while filming the TV movie, Northern Lights. The news made Eddie and Brandi the face of every tabloid, and the latter accused her husband of betrayal. Soon after, they shared that they will be taking some apart. However, they were not able to mend their relationship, and Brandi filed for a divorce five months later.

After a long divorce battle, their divorce was finalised in 2010. Their divorce came after months of public battles over custody and finances. While Brandi talked about the emotional betrayal she had gone through, Eddie went ahead and married LeAnn, which further drew serious criticism from the public. In a conversation with The Jeff Probst Show in 2012, Brandi talked about her emotional struggle and stated:

"The reason it is so bad is that she was pretending to be my friend as well. It would have been better had I not known her, and they were just having an affair. We're sitting there, and she's pretending they're pals — and she's sleeping with my husband."

Brandi Glanville and Eddie Cibrian moved on and formed a cordial relationship for the sake of their kids

However, a bitter tint always strains their relationship. The duo acknowledged that they both wanted what was best for their kids and prioritised them over their differences.

While LeAnn's presence in their lives complicated things and created tension between her and Brandi, they have found a more settled and functional dynamic. However, it's clear that the rift between Brandi Glanville and Eddie Cibrian has not been completely forgotten, as they often clash publicly. But, for the sake of their children, the level of intensity has gotten much in control as Brandi has often shared that she is now focusing more on her own growth.
