Lisa Vanderpump Confirms Our Exclusive — Stassi Schroeder Will Not Appear on Vanderpump Rules Season 4
Posted at 9:00 am by Brett
We recently told you some very interesting and very exclusive information about the upcoming season of Vanderpump Rules. So far, we know Kristen Doute is returning despite being fired from SUR on Season 3 (and despite being a major pain in the ass during production), and Tom Schwartz, Tom Sandoval, Ariana Madix, Katie Maloney, Jax Taylor, and Scheana Marie are all set to return as well. Season 3 newbie Vail Bloom most likely won’t be back, and Lisa Vanderpump has just confirmed what we already told you — Stassi Schroeder will not appear on #PumpRules Season 4.
Just like Kristen, Stassi was a huge pain during production of Season 3. Despite all of her demands, Bravo wanted her back because she always brought the drama — remember the slap? Plus, she was the center of the group for many years. After her breakup from Jax, things haven’t been the same with Stassi and she’s moved on to a new relationship and pretty much a whole new life.
Although Stassi has hinted she may not return to the show, our exclusive was the first concrete news of her departure. TMZ says it was a mutual decision between Stassi and the network:
Lisa Vanderpump tells TMZ Stassi is moving on to less catty pastures, and both sides agreed it was the right time for her to go.
LV says Stassi is not only off the show — she’s also off the clock, OFF camera at Sur … and the rest of Lisa’s restaurants.
Earlier this week, Stassi hinted she might be absent this season — she must have seen the writing on the wall when she wasn’t included in Bravo’s promotional events in NYC.
Kristen tweeted a response to our original report:
😂 where do these people get their info from? https://t.co/TiWIvPBs2d

It’s pretty interesting that Kristen didn’t deny the part in the story that stated she’s returning to the show. Of course, she’s more worried about what our sources told us about her behaviour. Hey Kristen, we stand by our story but if you want to talk about things, we’re here.
It kind of sucks that Stassi went out the way she did, because she brought some of the best moments to the last few seasons of the show and I’ll miss her calculated crazy.
