Vanderpump Rules alum Faith Stowers has set up a fundraiser to help her sue former co-star Stassi Schroeder.
On Sunday, Faith Stowers launched a GoFundMe page to raise money in order to take legal action against the Vanderpump Rules OG.
On her GoFundMe page, Faith claims that Stassi Schroeder wrote “terrible,” “non-factual,” and “ignorant” claims about her in her April 2022 NYTimes Best-selling book, Off with My Head: The Definitive Basic B*tch Handbook to Surviving Rock Bottom.
Faith goes on to explain that she wants to get Stassi’s book “removed” and have “all royalties/funds collected from this book” go to a family in need.
The former SURver states:
Hi! My name is Faith Stowers. As you may know, I was [a] former cast member on a television series called Vanderpump Rules. During my time there, I was publicly targeted and mercilessly verbally attacked by Stassi Schroeder and Kristen Doute on multiple public platforms. These two women used their privilege and celebrity to try and tear me down at [a] very sad time in my life and the Country. During that time, I was also racially targeted and wrongfully accused of horrendous crimes that I have since been vindicated from.
Since Kristen’s accepted apology, Stassi Schroeder has written a NY Times best-seller book recently and has made more terrible nonfactual claims about me once again. After all, she has done, she continues to stand by her ignorant claims that are very harmful to me and my family. I’m seeking assistance with my legal team to get this book removed, and all royalties/funds collected from this book be given to charity or assisting a family of choice. Thank you for your support always. And thank you all for standing up against bullies and racial division.
With Hope
-Faith
After launching her GoFundMe, Faith released a statement to various media outlets.
In a statement to Us Weekly, Faith Stowers explains her decision to take Stassi Schroeder to court.
“I believe Stassi hasn’t learned from her mistakes and is still alleging in her book that I have committed a felony. This is harmful to my career and to my family. Enough is enough. I found an amazing legal team and we are seeking assistance from supporters that also stand against bullying and racial divide to once and for all end this matter.”
As for Stassi, she has yet to publicly acknowledge or comment on Faith’s GoFundMe or her plans to sue. Stassi is currently 7 months pregnant with her second child, a son. This month Stassi is also wrapping up her podcast tour, The Mommy Dearest Tour, with husband Beau Clark and best friend, Taylor Strecker.
If you are curious to know what Stassi said about Faith in her 2022 book, we have excerpts of the only mentions of Faith Stowers in the entire book.
See the excerpts below!
Stassi Schroeder and Kristen Doute were fired from Vanderpump Rules in June 2020 after they came under fire for reporting Faith to the police in 2018. Stassi has since revealed that there were several other members of the Vanderpump Rules cast involved in the incident that led to her firing.
“I mean the cast members I’m friends with, everyone was there, I mean they witnessed… Lots of other people were a part of what went down,” Stassi confessed on the “Skinny Confidential Him and Her” podcast in June 2022.
“There were more people involved in ‘the incident’ that I was fired for. And Kristen and I, obviously we were not gonna take people down with us. So we were like ‘Lucky you guys, those of you who didn’t get called out for this.’ So everyone was pretty kind because I think they were feeling lucky that they didn’t, that they still had a job,” she continued.
Vanderpump Rules will return for season 11 in 2024.
