Braunwyn Windham-Burke broke up with her first lesbian love — ex-girlfriend Victoria Brito — the day before she stripped down (way down) for her Out Traveler cover shoot.
Getting glam was just what she needed.“(Photographer) Jen Rosentein called me,” Windham-Burke says. “She’s like, ‘Hey, I just saw the news.
Are you Okay?’ I’m like, ‘I will be’…I felt my own energy that day. I felt my own power. I felt this strong, beautiful 44-year-old gay woman, who was just saying, ‘I’m here.
This is who I am.’” Windham-Burke is embracing a new life now, moving on from her tumultuous tenure on The Real Housewives of Orange County, where she chronicled her life with seven children, as well as her struggles with alcoholism and a nascent sobriety journey.
