- *Real Housewives of Beverly Hills *alum Brandi Glanville has reignited her dormant feud with musician LeAnn Rimes.

- The pair first beefed after Glanville accused then-husband Eddie Cibrian of cheating on her with Rimes, whom he married in 2011.

- Though Glanville and Rimes claimed they reconciled in 2022, Glanville published a disparaging post about Rimes to social media amid rumors the singer is joining the cast of *RHOBH.*

A new *Devil Wears Prada *movie, Lady Gaga making dancefloor-ready bangers, and Brandi Glanville publicly beefing with LeAnn Rimes? Welcome back, late 2000s.

Nearly two decades since infidelity allegations first put them in each other's crosshairs, and four years since they officially announced a truce, Glanville has reawakened her feud with Rimes.

*The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills *alum addressed percolating rumors that Rimes might be joining the cast of the reality institution she left in 2015 with a vicious social media post on Wednesday.

"I hope it's true about *RHOBH* I mean she got everything else of mine," Glanville wrote on X. "Husband,kids,boobs, bronco, random illnesses she might as well just be a housewife and finish it off once and for all."

The as–yet–entirely unsubstantiated rumor that Rimes may be joining the cast of the Bravo reality series originated where many entirely unsubstantiated rumors originate: on gossip blog DeuxMoi.

"Would you like to see LeAnn on *The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills*?" DeuxMoi asked its 2.3 million Instagram followers on Monday. The account shared a recent photo of Rimes with the following text overlaid: "LeAnn Rimes' name has started circulating in casting conversations for the next season of *The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills*."

Glanville didn't just swipe at Rimes on X amid the circulation of the rumor; she shared a Cheatsheet.com story recapping its spread.

A source familiar with the matter tells * *that Rimes is not in talks to join *RHOBH*. EW* *has reached out to representatives for Glanville, Rimes, and NBC Universal, Bravo's parent company, for comment.

LeAnn Rimes describes 'heart wrenching things happening at home' in anniversary post with Eddie Cibrian

Cibrian and Glanville married in 2001 after years of dating and share two sons. In 2008, the actor appeared in the film *Northern Lights *with Rimes, and in 2009, *Us Weekly* published a report alleging that Cibrian cheated on Glanville with his costar during the shoot.

Glanville separated from Cibrian following that allegation and the revelation that he also cheated with future *Vanderpump Rules *star Scheana Shay. Cibrian and Glanville's divorce finalized in 2010, the same year that Rimes and her then-husband, Dean Sheremet, also sought a divorce.

By 2011, Cibrian and Rimes were married, with the country singer admitting to and justifying the affair to Robin Roberts: "It happens every day to so many people... And I if I take away my album sales, my words, and you have just another couple. You had two couples whose marriages didn't work who really stumbled upon each other and fell in love."

The Cibrian-Rimes affair and ensuing relationship were major plot points across Glanville's run on *RHOBH*, which stretched from 2011–2015. Glanville looked back on discovering the affair in 2021, writing, "There was video footage of them kissing over the table. It was devastating. I went straight home, passed out in my closet, cried and cried... He tried to convince me it wasn't real but I knew it was over."

But in 2018, Glanville appeared to make peace with Cibrian and Rimes, citing the new couple's kids' relationship with her and Cibrian's kids, saying, "The kids love when we're all together, and it's so obvious."

In 2022, Rimes shared that the truce was going strong, enthusing, "I love her! I mean I do. I love her. We get along very well.... We are connected through the boys, and we have great respect for one another."
