Earlier this year, Bravo removed Brandi Glanville from the higher-ups Ultimate Girls Tripsent him home from Morocco after two “lewd” incidents.
One, an important one, apparently involved Caroline Manzo. And, allegedly, unwanted and inappropriate touching.
All the world heard from Brandi was that she wanted Bravo to release the audio instead of sitting on exculpatory evidence until the season aired.
For the first time since the incident, Caroline herself spoke in public.
Caroline Manzo appeared as a guest on New York Livewhere the host obviously touches on whatever is happening in Morocco.
“I can’t say much,” Caroline began.
But he was quick to clarify that this was “just because it wasn’t good for my headspace.”
“But,” Caroline continued, “it took me a lot to get back on track.”
He said that, it marks his return to the franchise after a decade-long hiatus.
Caroline appeared in five seasons of Real Housewives of New Jersey. He left in 2013.
Still, Peacock managed to win her over, convincing her to join season 4 of Ultimate Girls Trip.
Caroline explained that she only entered with “the best of intentions.”
And he has “the highest hopes of doing something fun” during his trip to Morocco.
“Unfortunately, I can’t be like that,” Caroline lamented.
He remained vague, saying only that he “came home early.”
Which he always did. Caroline and Brandi left Morocco at the same time. Their respective contexts for departure are very different.
“At this point, I really don’t have the space in my head to talk about it, so I’d rather not,” Caroline explained.
“But I would imagine that it will open up in the series when it airs,” he predicted.
Caroline then added, “And there will be a lot to talk about.” We always have the same expectations.
So, to understate things dramatically, has Caroline’s experience returning to reality TV been a positive one?
“No,” she confirmed. “Not so.”
And we are still saddened to hear it. Surprisingly, there are quite a few things they do not heard from Caroline in their interview.
First of all, he didn’t mention Brandi Glanville. Totally. Not in a positive, negative, or neutral capacity.
According to reports, she and Brandi were seen having a great time at the party, and Caroline later expressed her displeasure at how Brandi may not have touched her during the kiss at the party.
Reportedly, Brandi later found out Caroline didn’t like it and sent her an apology of some kind, or at least some language. Without Caroline clarifying her thoughts, it’s unclear how she felt at the time.
Caroline also did not mention any sexual activity. He clearly avoids talking about all this. It could be due to trauma or it could be because he contracted it.
In other words, maybe he’s accusing Brandi of wrongdoing. Or maybe they want to remove Brandi’s name, but can’t without the producer’s approval.
The truth may lie somewhere in between. Peacock seems to be sitting on all records and evidence until this season airs. That’s unfortunate.
