Some of the biggest stars in reality TV are planning to join an “abuse” lawsuit threat spearheaded by Bethenny Frankel, Page Six is told.
Frankel, 52, is believed to have enlisted around 80 reality show cast members in her fight against Bravo and its parent company NBC Universal.
Her lawyer, would not name names — yet — but told us: “NBC, Bravo and its agents have wrongfully silenced even the most famous of these reality performers and continue to do so today.
“Their stories are horrific and in due time will be made public.”
A source familiar with the suit told Page Six: “They got these performers wasted on national TV, there has been revenge porn, they have illegally filmed people having sex — and they are trying to keep people silent.
“You will definitely know their names.”
A Bravo spokesperson told Page Six that, although confidentiality agreements are standard practice, current or former cast or crew members member are “free to discuss and disclose any allegedly unlawful acts in the workplace, such as harassment or discrimination, or any other conduct they have reason to believe is inappropriate.”
