Stephanie Pratt is calling out brother Spencer Pratt‘s campaign for Los Angeles mayor, saying a vote for the reality television star is a “vote for stupidity.”
In a series of tweets shared over the weekend, the former star of MTV‘s The Hills launched a tirade of posts against her brother containing her reasoning for why he should not be elected, along with some allegations against him, including a claim of assault. After Spencer and wife Heidi Montag lost their home in the Palisades fire more than a year ago, the reality TV fixture has emerged as an influential and controversial public policy critic. The parents of two filed a lawsuit against the city over damage from the wildfires, and Spencer Pratt announced his bid to join the 2026 L.A. mayoral race as a populist outsider in January. The election will be held June 2.
“Spencer has done great work for the palisades. But LA does not need another unqualified and inexperienced mayor. A vote for him is a vote for stupidity,” began Stephanie Pratt on Saturday night on her Twitter. “He’s just trying to stay famous and sell his memoir don’t be fooled. In an ideal world the palisades would have their own mayor and police department. I would love him to be mayor of Palisades but not LA with 4 million people. I’d be impressed if a republican could turn LA democrats thb [sic].”
Stephanie then referenced her brother’s past, saying L.A.’s mayor should be someone “who wasn’t in a cult.” After people on Twitter began responding to her tweets, she then alleged, “Sorry he beat me up when I was 18 & put me in the hospital. So no he doesn’t belong in the government” and claimed “he’s the one who got me hooked on hard core drugs at 15. I’ve kept this all a secret for years. He also had a hidden drug addiction.”
She then continued, referencing a 2010 incident, “did anyone know after the cult they went to Costa Rica and were arrested for illegal firearms? He called my dad from jail after not speaking to our family for 8 years bc of his cult, to bail him out … I have no interest in fame, I’m taking a course to become a RBT my passion is helping children and adults with autism. I don’t even use instagram. I’m serious about my new career helping people.”
Spencer, 42, sister Stephanie Pratt, 39, and Spencer’s wife Heidi Pratt, 39, all starred on MTV’s hit reality series The Hills, which aired from 2006 to 2010, and was rebooted in 2019 with The Hills: New Beginnings. Spencer famously had a villainous persona on the reality series and in the public spotlight, and his feuding with sister Stephanie was chronicled both on- and off-screen.
Amid his new campaign and with his memoir, The Guy You Loved to Hate, he’s taken to referring to his competitors with bullying nicknames and has revisited the fakery of MTV’s unscripted The Hills, as well as wife Heidi’s well-publicized plastic surgery.
“Yes fact – I will always be on team Lauren Conrad,” Stephanie Pratt continued, referring to the famous feud between Spencer, Heidi Pratt and their former Hills co-star. “Those two spent years trying to destroy her life for magazine covers,” she claimed. “I always side with the vulnerable who need help not the people inflicting pain on others.”
She added, “Leopards never change their spots. Stay in the palisades Spencer.”
