Vicki Gunvalson‘s gut has become loaded with parasites after a trip to Morocco while filming Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip. She’s not the only reality TV star and influencer who’s been affected, as Brandi Glanville claims the same thing happened to her.
She now has to get colonics treatments three times a week because her gut is so badly affected. In July, Vicki revealed she’s been taking Ivermectin twice a month in order to kill the parasites, and is convinced they are the same parasites that disfigured Glanville’s face.
Vicki and Brandi filmed together in January 2023. “We all got sick when we went to Morocco. It’s been four years and Brandi’s face — she’s got a parasite. It moves. It goes into her mouth. It’s bad,” the reality star said on SiriusXM’s Jeff Lewis Live.
Vicki claimed she herself has been suffering from bloating, constipation, and feeling sluggish ever since returning from Morocco over two years ago. She said she has not been the same as she complained that her “stomach is bloated, I don’t feel good. I feel tired.”
“Where I’m at now is like, ‘Why do I always feel sluggish?’ I don’t go poop. Like, it’s very hard for me. It might be once a week, if that. It’s a pellet that comes out. That’s it,” Vicki added, and has taken medicines like Duralax and Metamucil “old lady stuff” to help her issues.
She “100 percent” believes that Glanville picked up the parasite during their trip and described how there was a breakfast buffet for the cast members in Morocco, consisting of fruit, pastries, and eggs, which was “covered in flies.”
Vicki said that although she didn’t eat from the buffet, you “couldn’t get around” the flies, as they would be in restaurants as well. Her friend, Brandi, has spent over $100,000 seeking treatment for her condition, which she believes is caused by a facial parasite.
