Brandi Glanville has revealed she has gone nearly two years without having sex due to her mysterious facial disfigurement completely ravaging her confidence - but she is desperate to break her dry spell.
The former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star, 52, went public in 2023 that she has been suffering from an unknown illness which has caused significant changes to her face.
Since then, mom-of-two Brandi has been desperately searching for a concrete diagnosis as the illness continues to baffle doctors, but all the while she has unwillingly pushed sex to the side and her confidence has continued to plummet.
Speaking to pornographic actress Alexis Texas on the Private talk with Alexis Texas podcast, Brandi said she has been celibate since her health woes first began - but 'not by choice.'
She added that she is eager to make use of her remaining few years of 'looking hot,' but admitted that her facial issues have thrown a spanner in the works.
'I have two years of looking hot left,' she said in a preview of the episode, which has been exclusively shared with DailyMail.com.
'This is not hot.'
'This is the most insecure I've ever been in my life,' Brandi continued. 'I isolate, I don't wanna leave the house.

'The last thing I'm thinking about is like having someone look at my face.'
While she wants to get her groove back, Brandi is not feeling like herself.
'I'm feeling really insecure about my face,' she shared, but added: 'I need human touch.'
Brandi has spent over $100,000 seeking treatment for her mysterious health condition, which she believes has been caused by a facial parasite.
She has been open about her ongoing struggle and has been frequently hospitalized too.
After various medical appointments, multiple physicians have told the reality star she could be suffering from a 'parasite that jumps around [her] face.'
According to the Mayo Clinic, angioedema is a reaction similar to hives that causes swelling in the deeper layers of skin, often around the face and lips.

Cosmetic surgeon Dr. Terry Dubrow – who is married to Real Housewives Of Orange County star Heather Dubrow — said he was 'concerned' that Brandi could be suffering from either an 'infectious process' or a 'foreign-body reaction to something she's had injected.'
Dr. Terry also clarified that Brandi isn't at 'fault' for not being certain about what is plaguing her, and he instead blamed her doctor for not having a solid diagnosis and treatment plan.
However, he seemed fairly certain that whatever was going on with her is 'not a parasite' and is 'not from something she ate.'
Instead, he suggested the issue is 'something that got into her bloodstream and seeded some foreign body.'
