Getty Images for Empire State Realty Trust As the original queen bee of “Vanderpump Rules,” Stassi Schroeder struck fear in the hearts of her fellow SURvers while spouting off one quotable insult after another. With her impossibly blonde hair, icy blue eyes and chunky jewelry, Schroeder lorded over Lisa Vanderpump’s WeHo restaurant like a combustible sorority president, even warning her sleazebag boyfriend at the time, Jax, “I am the devil and don’t you forget it.”
By Season 6, however, Schroeder had evolved into the most sensible person on the Bravo hit, and her love affair with Beau Clark won over the audience’s hearts. She began hosting the podcast “Straight Up with Stassi,” penned a New York Times bestseller, exposed Tom Sandoval at the party for that New York Times bestseller and was on top of the world. Then, in June 2020, Schroeder and co-star Kristen Doute were fired from “Vanderpump Rules” for reporting recurring cast member Faith Stowers, who is Black, to the police for a crime she didn’t commit. Schroeder, who was several months pregnant at the time, found herself “canceled” and had to rebuild from scratch.
