Eddie Cibrian’s ex, Brandi Glanville, has given interviews to both In Touch and Radar stating that Eddie’s child support payments have been cut in half recently due to his lack of employment. The current amount of support Eddie pays Brandi isn’t enough to cover her rent. Brandi even had to pay money back to Eddie for supposed overpayments he made in earlier months. The cut in child support payments came at the exact same time that Eddie ‘bought’ LeAnn Rimes an engagement ring worth $85,000. (Although LeAnn probably bought that ring for herself, or was somehow comped part of it, as E!’s Answer Bitch explains.) Eddie is also driving a new Porsche. Brandi told In Touch that Eddie didn’t even bother to give her, or their sons, the heads up that he was getting engaged to LeAnn, and they all had to find out about it through the press.

Here are some of Brandi’s comments to In Touch and Radar:

On how she found out about Eddie and LeAnn’s engagement
“They dropped the kids off with me, and it was all over the press – and the kids had no idea. How dare you not tell your children before you tell the whole world!”

On how Eddie told her that same day he was cutting child support
“I get an e-mail from Eddie saying not only am I halving what I’m giving you, but you have to pay me back the money I overpaid you for the last six months. And this was as he went to Cabo with the 5-carat rock on her hand.

On how current child support doesn’t cover rent
“What he’s paying me now doesn’t even cover my rent. Yet Eddie’s living this lavish lifestyle. He got a new Porsche, and he has an assistant and a full-time nanny”

On how he’s living the high life while their kids suffer
“I don’t want my kids to have it all on one side, and then they come to my house and I’m like, ‘We’re not getting a Happy Meal because I have to watch every penny I spend. He’s not thinking about our children.” – From In Touch

How she will have to move
“The lease is up on my current home and I will be looking for a new place to live shortly while also trying to take care of my sons.”

On her future
“I’m looking for work and trying to get my real estate license but it is a gradual process – I’m not saying Eddie is a bad guy and he is a great father but I just wish it all could be a lot easier.” – From Radar

[From In Touch, print edition, January 17, 2011 and Radar Online]

In Touch explained how Eddie was able to get away with this – Eddie and Brandi’s “divorce agreement states that if Eddie, 37, hasn’t worked in the previous six months, [Brandi] has to repay everything.” Doesn’t this sound like exactly what LeAnn would want? Eddie isn’t working, so he’s available for her 24/7 and owes half the amount of child support to his ex. LeAnn can set up a home for “her boys” that’s in drastic contrast to the lifestyle their mother will be able to afford, all the while transforming herself into a carbon copy of Brandi. If I were Brandi, I would have much more to say about this. Brandi has been incredibly civil about this ridiculous situation.

Radar has another new interview with Brandi in which she talks about her counseling session with Eddie and LeAnn. She’s very classy about everything and just says that the therapy didn’t go well, that she feels blamed by those two for no reason, and that “it is a process and that our sons have to come first.”
