Guy Glanville, the father of former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Brandi Glanville, has died at the age of 77. Brandi announced the heartbreaking news on Saturday, October 10, 2026, expressing her grief over the loss of her father in an emotional post on X.
“My dad died, I’m gutted I hate this life right now,” Brandi wrote, accompanying her message with a broken-heart emoji. Her words reflected the pain she was experiencing as she came to terms with the death of a close family member.
The cause of Guy’s death has not been publicly disclosed. His passing comes several months after Brandi revealed that he had been hospitalized in a cardiac unit. In May 2026, she asked her followers to keep him in their prayers, explaining that he had spent 13 days in the hospital following a medical issue.
Guy and Brandi had a complicated relationship over the years, a subject they discussed publicly when they appeared together on Marriage Boot Camp: Reality Stars Family Edition in 2018. Although they reportedly left filming on good terms, Brandi later revealed that they had fallen out again after the program aired.
Despite their differences, their relationship eventually improved, and Guy publicly supported his daughter during her dispute with fellow reality television personality Denise Richards. In a video shared on Instagram, he defended Brandi against accusations that she was dishonest, acknowledging her flaws while insisting that she was not a liar.
Following the announcement of Guy’s death, messages of sympathy began appearing from friends and members of Brandi’s reality television circle. Sonja Morgan, known for her appearance on The Real Housewives of New York City, offered condolences on Brandi’s post, sending her love and strength during the difficult period.
Guy’s passing marks a painful moment for Brandi and her family as they mourn the loss of a father whose relationship with his daughter experienced both difficult periods and renewed closeness. Although the cause of death remains unknown, Brandi’s public tribute has offered a glimpse into the depth of her grief. May Guy Glanville rest in peace, and may his family find comfort and strength as they navigate their loss.
