When Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Brandi Glanville split from her ex-husband Eddie Cibrian in 2008, all bets were off. After all, while the two shared two sons together, Glanville finding out about his affair with LeAnn Rimes really eliminated any chance of an amicable split.
But, while the three of them had tensions brewing for a while, they’ve proved they can move on for the good of their family ever since.
Earlier this month, for example, Glanville shared photos of her Christmas celebrations on Instagram featuring herself, Cibrian, Rimes, their kids Jake, 17, and Mason, 21, and their extended family.
“Happy Christmas❤️ not my favorite look for my face but I felt ALL the love from my modern family,” she wrote in the caption. “Thanks Eddie & @leannrimes @masoncibrian @jakecibrian & all of the friends & grandparents ❤️❤️❤️”
She even gave a special shoutout to Rimes, who married Cibrian in 2011. “Big thanks to Le for offering to help with my situation 💕💕💕,” she wrote.
As a reminder, Glanville has recently opened up about going through some health issues after a mystery illness caused facial disfigurement. Luckily, it seems Rimes stepped in and offered to host Christmas instead. One less issue to deal with, right?
In the comment section, most followers are supportive of Glanville burying the hatchet with her ex. “Love this so much! Blended Family and co-parenting at its healthiest,” wrote one follower. “You look beautiful, Brandi,” wrote another. “Seeing you all together looks good on you. You’ve created a happy blended family and that’s not easy to do.”
But, in case anyone was getting ready to criticize Glanville, she recently defended her decision in her podcast, Brandi Glanville Unfiltered. “What was I gonna do?,” she asked her listeners, per Page Six. “Stay over here in my house, be lonely during Christmas or go be with my beloved children and my in-laws who I’m obsessed with and love?”
She then continued, saying that it was all to put her “kids first” and that she has “the utmost respect for [her]self.” “Certain times, I actually pat myself on the back and [say], like, ‘Oh, my girl. You’re doing this for your boys,'” she added.
“I can step in there and not give a f— as long as everyone’s happy and everyone’s in one place and the kids are happy and we’re having a good time and the food is good,” she added. Talk about a mature decision!
