Faith Stowers has started a GoFundMe to help handle her legal fees as she allegedly gears up to sue Stassi Schroeder.
Eagle-eyed followers noticed that Stowers, 34, added a link to the crowdfunding website on Sunday, June 18. Stowers, who has a goal of $20,000, detailed her decision to take Schroeder, also 34, to court.
“As you may know I was former cast member on a television series called Vanderpump Rules. During my time there I was publicly targeted and mercilessly verbally attacked by Stassi Schroeder and Kristen Doute on multiple public platforms,” Stowers wrote on the GoFundMe page. “These two women used their privilege and celebrity to try and tear me down at very sad time in my life and the Country. During that time I was also racially targeted and wrongfully accused of horrendous crimes that I have since been vindicated from.”
Stowers addressed her decision to take Schroeder to court, telling Us Weekly in a statement, “I believe Stassi hasn’t learned from her mistakes and is still alleging in her book that I have committed a felony. This is harmful to my career and to my family. Enough is enough. I found an amazing legal team and we are seeking assistance from supporters that also stand against bullying and racial divide to once and for all end this matter.”

In response to Schroeder and Doute’s exits, a spokesperson for Stowers told Us that she supported the network’s decision. “Faith has nothing but love for her
