Stassi Schroeder Shares How She Uses Lisa Vanderpump to Bribe Her Daughter

Stassi Schroeder’s daughter, Hartford Clark, has a sweet relationship with Lisa Vanderpump. “She’s so obsessed with Lisa,” the former SUR server shared with Good Morning America on April 23.

“It became now, a way for me and Beau, my husband, to bribe her. Like, ‘If you don’t eat your vegetables, you’re not going to see Lisa later,'” Schroeder described.

Vanderpump jumped in, “I love children. I always say, they’re not children, they’re little people.” She added, “I had some amazing conversations with Harper. I have a great relationship with her. And she’s a little Stassi.”

Vanderpump Is an Inspiration to Schroeder

Schroeder and Vanderpump appear in season 2 of “Vanderpump Villa” together, and the two spoke to People on April 23 about their new bond.

“I thought that there was also a different energy between us because prior to that, I mean it’s many years ago, I was always her boss and chastising her. So to actually come into a reality television with a different equation, it felt kind of like we could be this close together,” Vanderpump said.

Schroeder interjected, “Yeah, way less stressful. But there is always that element of, Lisa will always be somebody who I hope to impress — who I hope is proud of me and my choices.”

She continued, “I started working for her when I was 21, and so she’s just been a part of my whole adult life, at least in her own way.”

On returning to reality television, the former “Vanderpump Rules” star said, “I don’t know how I would’ve felt if she wasn’t there. It’s like I feel safe with her. It’s someone that I’ve known for half of my life, and so it just felt like riding a bike. We’re back in it.”

Schroeder Teases a Birthday Meltdown on ‘Vanderpump Villa’

While on “Vanderpump Rules,” Schroeder was infamous for her birthday meltdowns, and fans will watch her have one again in “Vanderpump Villa,” Decider reported.

“I’m embarrassed. The dark passenger — I thought I had gotten rid of it, but I guess I haven’t. God, I really thought I was past birthday meltdowns,” she told the publication.

The reality star added, “The pressure of your birthday to have a great time, make sure everyone else is having fun, and then you just drink too much.”

Despite her embarrassment at being filmed having another meltdown, Schroeder admitted, “They do make good TV.”
