Brit Eady Slams Bravo And Its Parent Companies For Causing Her Emotional Distress

Eady has taken her rage a step further by filing a lawsuit against Bravo, claiming that the network contributed to her being portrayed in a defamatory and inappropriate manner. Eady noted that the controversial posters falsely implicated her in a sexual act, prompting her to seek $20 million in damages.

The incident escalated after the salon opened in June 2024, when Eady was not present but became furious upon discovering the nature of the posters. Following the backlash, Moore was removed from the reality series by Bravo Network, but that did not please Eady.

In her lawsuit, Eady accuses Bravo of creating a hostile work environment and inflicting sexual harassment by compelling her to return to work after what she describes as a "gendered attack."

The legal action targets Bravo, NBCUniversal, and the production companies Truly Original and Endemol Shine North America. Eady claims that they knowingly misled the public and violated her rights through defamation, emotional distress, and harassment. 

She also demands the immediate removal of the related episode from public access, emphasizing that she is not the person featured in the explicit posters. Per TMZ, she reiterated her earlier statements on social media, indicating that she did not participate in the reunion episode of the show.

During her appearance on the "Tamron Hall Show," Moore clarified that she was never actually fired from the series, dismissing speculation about her exit.

Reflecting on her past decisions, she expressed regret, stating that the photos involved were "very distasteful" and that she did not need to escalate the matter as she did. The reality expressed remorse about the outcome of her actions, saying:

"I am sorry for what I've done. I didn't have to take it that far."

As a sneak peek into a new episode dropped, Eady was seen having a heartfelt conversation with her co-stars after a shocking discovery.

The mogul did not hide her disappointment when she discovered that her co-stars had reached out to Moore after she shared explicit photos on camera. Eady noted that their actions meant they chose Moore over her and failed to factor in the severity of her actions.

Eady expressed that her co-stars' actions made her feel unsupported, especially since they all share the feeling of being mothers. She posed a tough question to them, asking how they would react if their own daughters were in a similar situation.
