Stassi Schroeder Criticizes Meghan Markle After Exclusion from PR Box

Stassi Schroeder has expressed her disappointment with Meghan Markle, alleging that she was overlooked in Markle’s recent “As Ever” PR gift box. Schroeder, known for her role on “Vanderpump Rules,” claimed she had previously defended Markle extensively.

On her podcast, Schroeder stated, “I’ve filmed videos about it, commented on all the things, and even had my PR team reach out to her.” She added that she’s now decided to end all communication, saying, “I’m not going to talk about her anymore. I’m going to unfollow her immediately … Done.”

Schroeder criticized Markle’s social media behavior, suggesting that Markle, 44, dismisses her because of her background in reality television. “The way she operates on social media—she seems stuck in 2017, and she apparently thinks I’m just a lowly reality star,” Schroeder asserted. Frustrated, she announced she would no longer watch Markle’s Netflix series, “With Love, Meghan.”

She also accused Markle of sending PR packages to podcast hosts Claudia and Jackie Oshry, who have previously questioned Markle’s actions. Schroeder claimed, “When you send PR boxes to people who question you — they don’t even talk badly about her, but they’ve doubted her. Everyone knows what she’s doing—controlling the narrative,” Schroeder said.

Further criticizing Markle, Schroeder called her a “control freak” and drew an unclarified comparison to actress Blake Lively. Representatives for Markle and Lively haven’t yet commented.

Schroeder reflected on past support for Markle, noting, “My feelings are hurt—I was a toxic fan turned into a toxic hater.”

She also lamented Markle’s tendency to focus on critics rather than her supporters, stating, “She pays attention to her haters instead of her fans, which is her way of controlling everything.”

Schroeder concluded by emphasizing her emotional shift, saying, “I was once a devoted fan, now I’m just a hater,” and revealed she had unfollowed Markle on Instagram amid her discontent.
