‘RHUGT’ exec producer claims Brandi Glanville ‘disrespected’ Caroline Manzo — but didn’t ‘sexually violate’ her

An executive producer of “Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip” claims in new court documents that Caroline Manzo felt “disrespected” by Brandi Glanville but wasn’t “sexually violated” by her.
As Page Six previously reported, the “Real Housewives of New Jersey” alum sued Bravo and Peacock earlier this year, claiming the “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” alum harassed her and kissed her without consent at the behest of production while they filmed in Morocco.
Manzo, 62, also claimed in court documents that Glanville, 51, “then proceeded to mount Manzo on the couch holding Manzo down with her body, forcibly squeezed Manzo’s cheeks together and thrust her tongue in Manzo’s mouth, while humping her.”
In new court documents filed in response Manzo’s lawsuit, Lisa Shannon claims Manzo told production at the time that Glanville’s alleged “actions that evening had triggered memories” of her past “childhood trauma” but didn’t mention an assault.
“Our primary concern at that point was making sure that Manzo felt safe,” read the documents, obtained by Page Six. “She told us that she felt safe, that she wanted to continue to film, and that she did not want Glanville to be sent home.”
Shannon then claims Manzo was “not left alone” with Glanville that evening, and the following morning, Manzo told Shannon and other production members that she still “felt safe” and wanted to continue filming the reality series.
In a conversation with Shannon, which has been re-enacted in the documents, Manzo purportedly told her, “‘Listen, I feel safe, okay, I feel your support. This is for me… I’m dealing with something that has been buried deep in my soul for 50 years.’”
The documents also note that following Glanville’s incident with Manzo, production ceased including Glanville in group activities; however, other cast members, including Phaedra Parks, allegedly “perceived the events differently.”
“‘All of us thought we were having fun,’” Parks purportedly told Manzo. “‘No one knew about whatever has happened to you in the past.’”
Shannon also claims Manzo flew home from Morocco because the rest of the cast informed Manzo in a group text that they were going to visit the OnlyFans star at her hotel, which was the “only time” Manzo allegedly asked not to be filmed.

“At that time, she asked the production crew not to film her, and we honored that request,” Shannon writes in the documents.
“Other than that incident, Manzo never asked not to be filmed or express to me, or to my knowledge, anyone else from production, that she was uncomfortable being filmed,” she continues, noting that Manzo “willingly allowed production to film her” discussing her decision to depart the trip.
Shannon’s response also notes that the network paid Manzo in full despite leaving early.
Manzo’s attorney didn’t immediately return Page Six’s request for comment.
Glanville previously blasted Manzo’s sexual harassment claims as “absurd” and “false.”
“While filming, Brandi followed what the producers asked of her, and there was no sexual assault,” Glanville’s rep told Page Six in January after Manzo filed her lawsuit.
“She is innocent of these absurd accusations that have weighed on her mental and physical health for far too long without a word of support from Peacock, Shed or Bravo.”
