LeAnn Rimes responds to Real Housewives of Beverly Hills report
LeAnn Rimes has addressed reports linking her with The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.
LeAnn Rimes has insisted she won't be joining Real Housewives of Beverly Hills because it's too much "drama".
The 43-year-old star has responded to reports claiming the Can't Fight The Moonlight singer-songwriter was being lined up for the longrunning Bravo reality show.
Commenting on a clip from Rachel Lindsay and Chelsea Stark-Jones' Morally Corrupt Bravo Show podcast, she wrote: "Omg, dying! SCHOOL QUEEN ?? no, no.... no housewives. for me.
"Playing dixie on 911 Nashville is drama enough for me. (sic)"
She might have shut down the rumours now, but the speculation about her joining the show appeared to reignite her feud with former Real Housewives star Brandi Glanville.
The 53-year-old TV personality appeared on the reality TV show on and off from 2011 to 2020, and she reacted to the reports with a brutal dig seemingly aimed at LeAnn, who is married to Brandi's ex Eddie Cibrian.
While she didn't name LeAnn, Brandi wrote on X: "I hope it's true about RHOBH I mean she got everything else of mine- husband,kids,boobs, bronco, random illnesses she might as well just be a housewife and finish it off once and for all (sic)"
Brandi's post came just two days after gossip site DeuxMoi linked LeAnn - who recently cancelled some concerts due to battling "severe laryngitis", following a bout of COVID-19 - to the new series of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, claiming she had been "circulating in casting conversations".
Brandi and Eddie - who have two sons, Mason, 22, and Jake, 19 - were married for nine years, but he had an affair with LeAnn, who was still married to Dean Sheremet, in the late 2000s after meeting her on the set of Northern Lights.
Eddie and Brandi's divorce was completed in 2010, and he married LeAnn the follow year.
Brandi previously said the affair left her "broken", and that she only survived because she needed to take care of her children.
Writing for The Sun newspaper in 2021, she said: "I couldn’t turn on the TV without seeing something about them. LeAnn had taken over my life and I didn’t have a voice anymore.
"I did not want my kids around her. She’d got my husband and she was NOT getting my children.
"One time, before they were married, I walked up to a soccer game and Jake, who was two, was sitting in her lap.
"I had this rage in my body. I really wanted to kill her."
