‘Rotted Workplace Culture’: Real Housewife Leah McSweeney Sues Bravo, Andy Cohen

Former Real Housewife Leah McSweeney accused Bravo, Andy Cohen, and others of trying to undercut her sobriety and mental health in a new lawsuit.

Leah McSweeney has accused Bravo, Real Housewives producers, and Andy Cohen of exacerbating and failing to accommodate her struggles with drinking and mental health disorders during her time as a “Housewife.” Additionally, the lawsuit accuses the defendants of using “psychological warfare intentionally weaponized to break Ms. McSweeney’s psyche.” Allegedly, they “intimated and prevented from visiting her dying grandmother” during the filming of Season 13 by “implicitly threatening to terminate her employment and cut off her pay.” Caroline Manzo, of Real Housewives of New Jersey, filed a civil suit of her own recently, while last year Bethenny Frankel headlined a letter that accused NBCUniversal of “a pattern and practice of grotesque and depraved mistreatment.”
