Reps for Cohen, Bravo, Shed and Warner Bros did not immediately respond to PEOPLE’s request for comment on McSweeney’s allegations.
In a later section of the complaint, McSweeney goes on to claim that Cohen “engages in cocaine use with Housewives and other ‘Bravolebrities’ that he employs,” and has a “proclivity for cocaine usage with his employees.”
“Cohen tends to provide the Housewives with whom he uses cocaine with more favorable treatment and edits,” she claimed.

“Cohen intentionally uses cocaine with his employees to further promote a workplace culture that thrives off drug and alcohol abuse, which leads to a failure to accommodate employees who are disabled and attempting to remain substance free.”
“Cohen’s preferred workplace environment, which is fueled with substances and illicit behavior, permeates every aspect of Defendant Bravo productions,” she continued.
