In the midst of eagerly anticipating the arrival of her second child, Stassi Schroeder Clark, known for her appearance on Vanderpump Rules, found herself in a disheartening situation as heavy rain from Hurricane Hilary seeped through the light fixtures of her $1.7M Hollywood Hills home.
The incident left the expecting 35-year-old in tears, further heightened by the fact that she had meticulously transformed a walk-in closet into a nursery for her soon-to-be-born son.
She took to Instastory to share her emotions, expressing anxiety over completing the blinds and curtains on time. Stassi, who is 36 weeks along, lamented the damage, conveying the weight of her emotions through crying emojis.
Stassi’s husband, Beau Clark, shared more visuals of the damage sustained by the nursery and reached out to his substantial Instagram following of 678K for contractor recommendations.
As the couple prepares to welcome their second child, they faced uncertainty about whether the repairs could be completed before the baby’s arrival. Beau’s call for recommendations was coupled with his frustration, signifying the urgency of the situation.
The 43-year-old commercial casting director sought advice from his followers, acknowledging the rarity of finding contractors who receive positive feedback.
Stassi and Beau, who are already parents to a two-year-old daughter named Hartford Charlie Clark, are soon to celebrate their third wedding anniversary on September 7.
The couple’s journey into parenthood has been marked by this unfortunate incident, underscoring the challenges they face in preparing for the arrival of their newest family member amidst unexpected obstacles.
Stassi Schroeder, in her 36th week of pregnancy, recently revealed her plans and expectations for the upcoming birth during a podcast episode called “The Good The Bad The Baby.”
Discussing her hospital stay attire and post-birth comfort, Stassi humorously recounted her previous experience and emphasized the importance of feeling good about oneself even in moments of vulnerability.
She recalled her past choice of a black robe that didn’t align with her desire to feel chic and confident during her hospital stay.
This time around, she expressed her intention to choose a more appropriate outfit, including a diamond tennis necklace and a delicate necklace from H&M, which she believes won’t interfere with skin-to-skin contact with her baby.
Amidst the preparations for their growing family, Stassi hosted a baby “sprinkle” with close friends on August 8.
The event featured a stylish dinner at a West Hollywood restaurant, where Stassi was joined by nine of her girlfriends, including former castmates Lala Kent and Katie Maloney.
While Stassi has made a name for herself through her appearances on reality TV, it’s worth noting that she doesn’t seem to be involved in the Vanderpump Rules spin-off featuring other cast members.
Beyond her personal life, the entertainment industry has also seen significant developments.
Filming is underway for the 11th season of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, which has garnered Emmy Award nominations for unstructured reality programming and picture editing thanks to its innovative approach.
Additionally, a Vanderpump Rules spin-off has emerged, featuring familiar faces from the show.
However, Stassi’s absence from this project highlights her departure from Bravo after eight seasons, following controversies surrounding racially insensitive remarks and other incidents.
In 2005, Stassi Schroeder first gained attention by participating in the eighth season of CBS’ reality competition show, The Amazing Race, alongside her family.
While her journey has been marked by both triumphs and challenges, she continues to navigate life’s complexities with her growing family and personal endeavors.
