Brandi Glanville Defends Her Friendship With LeAnn Rimes' Ex Dean Sheremet

Brandi Glanville is taking to Twitter to defend her relationship with LeAnn Rimes' ex-husband,Dean Sheremet. "I'm sorry if it bothers some of u that I am friends with Dean but we have remained in touch over the years," theReal Housewives of Beverly Hillsstar tweeted earlier today in response to some hating fans. "He is in LA 4 work." Glanville's tweet comes in the wake of some social media cooking correspondence she recently had with Sheremet, who now works as a celeb chef. Glanville replied to a fan on Twitter who asked about her imprecise cooking methods, writing, "@heather072013 OMG that is soooo how I roll, but my friend @Deansheremet is going to help me get my measurements down!" Sheremet also got in on the cooking convo, writing back, "@BrandiGlanville @heather072013 trust your taste buds!" Sheremet and Rimes split back in 2009 after Rimes had an affair with Glanville's then-husband, Eddie Cibrian. Last week, Sheremet opened up about Rimes, telling Access Hollywood, "We don't really talk. I have no animosity towards her. I have nothing but love for her and I really wish her the best, but we don't really talk that much. There's not really a need to. I don't really know what we would talk about." Glanville also opened about her current relationship with Rimes and Cibrian last week, telling E! News, "As far as I know, we're fine. I see them at soccer, I say hello, and I don't really have any other interactions with them."
