As we've learned since we first met Brandi Glanville a few weeks ago on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, she's not one to mince words, especially when it comes to someone who has scorned her (ahem, Kim Richards). And no one has scorned her more than LeAnn Rimes. So it's not surprising that when Wendy Williams asked Brandi what the woman who stole her husband is like as a stepmother, she bluntly replied, "Overbearing."
First of all, she started out trying to stay neutral, but Wendy pushed her, and "overbearing" isn't really that bad. I'm sure she had plenty of worse things on the tip of her tongue. But, of course, LeAnn took great offense and started a Twitter war.
The first deeply defensive tweet read:
I am his WIFE & their "bonus mom" and it's out of line after 3 years to continually discuss. Negativity does not help kids. Go promote your show if that's what you're really there to do
She followed that with:
I however will not be lied about. Obviously we are not in a good place like has been claimed and it’s not good for the kids. I’d like to see some resolve, but that doesn’t look like its happening anytime soon. #hopeforthebest.
And that's a positive thing to put out there? What about that "high road" she recently bragged about always taking? Plus, way to overreact. "Overbearing" is a pretty subjective term; I don't think you can call it lying if someone thinks you are and you don't agree. How about just letting it go, and not blowing up a huge media frenzy over one little word? I mean chalk it up to the fact that you deserve it (and more) and move on.
Brandi responded to LeAnn with a tweet that read:
Let's b clear just as u get asked about me,I get asked about u.It is my story & life also.I will answer honestly,don't b a hater
Exactly, though I hate to even see her acknowledge her nonsense at all. Brandi doesn't need to stoop to LeAnn's level. Even though LeAnn may have walked away with her husband, Brandi is the one who's winning here. She's starring on a ridiculously popular television show and gaining a strong following of fans; plus, she's reportedly dating a hot model who's 16 years younger than her (see picture above) -- go, Brandi. And LeAnn, well, she's stuck with Eddie and apparently a lot of time to tweet.
Do you think Brandi Glanville was wrong to call LeAnn Rimes "overbearing"?

I agree with BLH, LeAnne destroyed a family. Except some negative feelings on the matter.
That being said, my fiancé's exwife, (who I'm now friends with) called me overbearing at one point. Apparently, enforcing structure and some light chores was deserving of that adjective. (For example, before you can play, your rooms must be clean and dishes put in the dishwasher. Also, we have a 2 hour limit on screen time.) They were divorced long before I ever entered in the picture, but naturally, she took an immediate dislike to me since he had moved on, and she was afraid I'd try to take over her role as Mom. (I wasn't at all, but I understand the place she was coming from.)
What I'm trying to say is perhaps Brandi is looking for anything negative to point out, or maybe LeAnne truly is overbearing. Either way, cat-fighting over Twitter just reeks of High School homeroom antics. (Though yeah. I'd be pissed and not like LeAnne either.)
Bonus Mom.... Huh. I wonder if the boys just call her BM.
What the heck is "Bonus Mom" supposed to mean? She thinks she is all that?! Creepy.
First of all I don't think that LeAnn over reacted at all. She replied to something directed at her like anyone else would have. I petrsonally agree with her. They need to all get along on the surface for the sake of the children. Next, I have heard the term bonus mom often and see nothing wrong with it. My step-mom was a bonus mom, she gave me more time and attention than my own mother and I am glad that I had her. And lastly, LeAnn Rimes did not wreck anything. She didn't force the man to have an affair, she didn't go in and make it her mission to ruin a family. It wasn't right but she didn't do the whole thing all on her own. Spouses cheat because there are issues within the marriage, issues the general public do not see. I hate when people blame the woman. The man knew he wasmarried, he knew he had a family and HE made the choices to cheat and to walk away from his family. No one forced him.
LeAnn screwed and then stole Brandi's husband and *still* rubs it in her face. As far as I'm concerned, Brandi can call her whatever she wants.
I agree with everyone, Leann IS delusional & with all the things Brandi could say "Honestly!" I'm very happy for Brandi because now the whole world will know what she's been dealing with & the home wrecker might get her deserves.
