She is full of BS. As someone who has 13 years of sobriety, there is NO ONE responsible for my behavior but me. That includes choosing to drink. I can’t count the number of times people encourage/push me to have a drink. It’s up to me to say no if I want a life of sobriety. She made the choice to return to the show multiple times for the money. She says that in this interview, that it was impossible to pass up. Bullshit. I’ve left good jobs due to bad work environments. You move on. She made a choice to prioritize money over her sobriety and mental health. She made the choice to drink knowing she was an addict. She made the choice to drink while on meds for mental health. She made the choice to join knowing anything and everything in your life is up for exposure. I’ve even heard Andy say that people should never go on reality TV if they have secrets currently or in the past because it will like be found out, usually by fans and exposed. And for her to say she “chose not to come back is a joke. Her show was cancelled. I saw her in an interview while they were in hiatus saying she hoped the show continued and she wanted to come back. I have several family members with bipolar and part of management is making sure you set up your life to not have chaos and avoid stress. She must be looking for a settlement because there’s no way she could win this.

She helped ruin RHONY. Just didn’t fit in and tried too hard. We watch reality tv to get a break from our normal lives, not to watch some woman try to fit in in her workplace

[@curiousjo8556]

Good luck Leah. You choose to take a contract to share your life. You were the mess and you have to live with that.

[@jusletursoulglobaby]

these women.... forever victims whenever its convenient

[@andreeallen3311]

Can someone explain this to me how is this the network fault.? Is she not a grown adult.? Serious question.

[@daninj1132]

Help her mom retire ? Her story line was that she basically hated her mom. And she was not a fan favorite. She was out of control. It seemed fake

[@c.t.4837]

That’s it. I’m suing my liquor store for being open every day! It’s there fault that I am an alcoholic 🎉

[@roaram4937]

You know you have toxic issues, and you sign up for a toxic workplace. It’s reality drama. Where’s the self accountability?? All that are sueing are literally broke for living outside their means.

[@SocialClout]

only in america can you sue someone for providing free booze 🤣

[@olyaz7032]

Have zero sympathy for her. Other housewives got arrested, divorced, lost loved one and never cried not to mention that people who go to these shows are not the best humanity has to offer. Leah fits there perfectly but whines and complaints on top of it.

[@saramarshall2957]

I hope Bravo and Andy do not settle and fight this in court

[@travelamazon]

At what age are grown woman held accountable for THEIR choices?

[@jaymanuel3396]

She’s probably just upset because her fashion line took a hit, after her gross behavior on national television.

[@AgingStudent]

She could have taken millions of other jobs. She wanted to be on television. Period. Rachel Leviss did the same.

[@jackiegroden416]

Sorry she was a train wreck before this show… blaming the show for what you did

[@charissakjohns]

Leave it to Leah to cry foul - she was OUT OF CONTROL and only has herself to blame.

[@newlife9830]

Meanwhile nene was ignored

[@CelticPurl]

It seems as though Bravo loves a train wreck. They look for vulnerabilities in their cast members and magnify their flaws to increase the bottom line. Pretty shameful.

[@Max-st8ig]

Alcoholism is a disease. She can be on reality TV and get the support that she needs. We wouldn’t treat people with other sicknesses the same way. And once a reality star signs a contract for the whole season, it is not easy to get out of. I can only imagine the peer pressure she received in the overwhelming presence and absence of cameras. Being entertained by the demise of rich women, which all of the Real Housewives franchises do, is entertaining for some until it is not - like she is claiming.

[@ensabahnur3104]

There are housewives who don't drink... there is nothing in the contract that says they have to drink alcohol.

[@HadassahNaomiC]

This lawsuit is a joke. Everyone knows what reality tv is like. U sign up for the mess of it all. Now complaining about the workplace? Like watch the dam show and see for urself…drinking, fighting is all part of what these shows are known for. Leah got naked in her first season. Did producers make her do that? Stupse.

[@Tierraje]

But Kandi doesn’t drink at all. She is around the alcohol all the time.

[@katjaxxx7353]

Leah honestly, you know what you’re getting in to. You know that alcohol is involved. You went on this franchise to promote your clothing line. Didn’t work out really. It’s ridiculous

[@moonbeeps]

Why did she join? The cast is outrageous, didn't she knew this? She didn't know celebrities do coke? She wasn't even liked on the show, who called her in?

[@renellwhite9315]

Then why did you keep coming back?

[@paulaliberty2082]

Twelve Steppers that work a program don't sue

[@sashaluxe176]

Is she blaming Andy for her drinking issues?

[@ellasabe6377]

There are wives from the Bravoverse who potentially have authentic claims about bullying, or any number of workplace issues that are grounds for suit and settlement. Leah McSweeney, Brandi Glanville, and the outrageous behaviors they chose to display over years are not those women.

[@vinceypoo]

the cut to Caroline saying "you know what you are? A Clown." sent me for some reason... lmaoo

[@thepopfiles4294]

She was the toxic in the workplace. I’m not saying being a HW is as glamorous as it seems, there is an exploitation there. But that’s what they sign up for. A well balanced showed about people’s real mundane lives isn’t entertaining. It’s trash tv. And it’s tried and tested. She knew what she was getting into. And as for the allegations about Andy. Probably true. Hit again all consenting adults and I’m sure Ms Leah indulged in a hell of a lot more than blow. She’s reaching for a cheque because she didn’t get seasons. Bye girl.

[@CaliforniaGuy888]

Bravo should be suing her - she helped bring down the RHONY franchise! They had to REBOOT the show thanks to her.

[@kelsilulu]

I don’t think kandi had a problem. She just doesn’t drink

[@kp2714]

Where is Nene... she had real allegations of workplace issues?!

[@snarkyenigma9219]

Real? Please.

[@saxonmckenzie9260]

Wait, didn't she sign up for this? It was her decision to drink and break her sobriety. I'm thinking bitter at being fired because the fans arent interested in what they are doing. Girl bye

[@maggieyoung8090]

Where did Leah get that she became a fan favorite when she was out of control at the Hamptons or Ramona’s.? I was so embarrassed for her. I felt bad for her. It’s hard to watch someone humiliate themselves to that point. Now, she’s going to sue Bravo for this??? Smh 🤦🏼‍♀️ No shame.

[@aidaroman8566]

First she made money after suing the police because they allegedly beat her and her boyfriend, now that Bravo didn't hire her back she wants to play the victim. We know she wanted to put her daughter in an expensive school. She better put her daughter where she can afford it and do something else instead of suing people for financial gain. Grow up!

[@billydeanjamesgomez-keaton5787]

Leah is doing it for the money. These ladies know what they signed up for. They didn't offer transportation? Come on?

[@nikkin.9206]

Everybody is not lying on Bravo! They need to be investigated at the least. Too many stories coming out. From Bethanny, Nene, vickie, brandy, mariah, leah and the girl that was on rhony...Everybody cant be lying!

[@LoriMosinsky]

Add Kristen Doute's previous statements. Andy didn't do coke with Lisa. What about Sandoval, did Andy do coke with him?
