Why Did Stassi Get Fired From Vanderpump Rules
The two ladies got fired for the racist incident, and the two men, for old racist tweets. Faith Stowers opened up about the incident when Stassi and Kristen considered her a thief and reached out to the police for the same.
Stassi’s remarks were found racially insensitive that got made during the protests, ‘Black Lives Matter,’ occurring in 50 countries all over the world. The killing of an unarmed black man ‘George Floyd’ by the policeman ‘Derek Chauvin’ was the reason behind the protests.
Stowers explained that a woman was already committing robberies in their area. Though she did not resemble Stowers, Kristen and Stassi called the police only because the thief was black like Stowers. Stassi confessed it during an interview according to Stowers.
It was funny and the police did not proceed with Kristen and Stassi’s claims. Meanwhile, Stowers realized that they had already said so much. She went numb for a moment. It was difficult for her to digest it. She hopes none else goes through the situation she went through.
A lot of things made Stowers stronger in her life and the blame mentioned above is one of them. She has diverted her mind to other things. Similarly, she is glad to have God, her family, and the audience by her side.
How Stassi Broke Silence
She said that she was expected to understand everything, but she required some time. So, she decided to keep her mouth shut for a while. However, she opened up about the incident on the ‘Tamron Hall Show.’ It is a talk show that brings recent topics and allows the celebrities and audience to connect.
She was also tired of hearing complaints from African Americans regarding racism. Then, the other people must do something to make them happy. She called the police without a detailed investigation. She did not know how seriously it would affect Stowers. So, she apologized without expecting forgiveness.
On the other hand, Kristen realized how negative it would be for Stower where black lives cannot expect better treatment from law enforcement. So, she is ashamed and looking forward to an improvement in herself involving a keen eye on her actions.
Bravo did not bring them back in the ninth season, though the two had apologized for their mistake publicly. Lisa Vanderpump agreed that she would have given them another chance. But, people take a stand for the right things and Lisa has zero tolerance for the wrong ones.
Lisa believes that Kristen and Stassi are young, they can learn from it, and get back. Their co-stars ask them to stay positive. Talking about returning to the show, Stassi said that the ship has sailed.
The controversy made Metro Public Relations and her agency called ‘UTA’ cut ties with her. On the other hand, Kristen’s Fuse Literary has also dropped her. The most difficult part of the controversy was to get the ‘racist’ label from the critics. Stassi never found herself racist, yet she was not anti-racist. It is what she learned throughout the journey.
Later, Stassi got on her way to move on. Stassi found herself responsible and met the diversity coach once a week on Zoom. She got pregnant in 2020 and decided to get better for her children. She wanted to provide solutions instead of being held for problems. She decided to make her children proud.
