Stassi Schroeder lands her own reality show, also joins “Vanderpump Villa ”season 2
She was previously fired from "Vanderpump Rules" in 2020 for racial misconduct.
Stassi Schroeder is returning to TV four years after her firing from Vanderpump Rules for racial misconduct.
Schroeder has teamed up with Hulu for her own reality show, a comedic half-hour docuseries called Stassi Says. Created by Schroeder and former Vanderpump Rules producers Erin Foye and Jenna Rosenfeld, it's set to follow Schroeder as the "anchor of a fresh ensemble of comedic and chaotic characters" as they deal with "identity crises and major life crossroads of their own" — and "Stassi’s the one who has to keep them all afloat," per the synopsis.

The series is billed as "endlessly relatable, utterly hysterical, and questionably sane."

But that's not all. Schroeder is also set to rejoin the Vanderverse for season 2 of the recently renewed Vanderpump Villa, reuniting with her former boss Lisa Vanderpump in Europe as a lead cast member. Season 1, which debuted on Hulu in April, follows the staff at Vanderpump's opulent French villa as they cater to affluent visitors and get caught up in rivalries and romances.
Additional details about the sophomore season, including casting, location, and a premiere date, are forthcoming.

Schroeder's new deal comes as a bit of a surprise, as she and and Kristen Doute were let go from Vanderpump Rules back in 2020 for reporting their Black costar Faith Stowers to police for a crime she did not commit. Max Boyens and Brett Caprioni, who both came under fire for past racist tweets, were also fired. Schroeder was promptly dropped by her publicist and agency in the wake of the controversy.
Schroeder — who also came under fire for past "All Lives Matter" comments, among other controversial remarks about race — would then appear on Tamron Hall's show later that year and state that she has since educated herself. “It is absolutely my fault that I didn’t know better, but the issue is I did not know better,” she said. “I want to be a part of the solution, I’ve been a part of the problem for years now, and I’ve recognized that."
