As per court documents filed on January 9, 2025, as per My News LA, Faith says that she was pressured into silence about abusive treatment — both verbal and physical — during her time on the reality series. This news comes after months ago, Faith filed a defamation lawsuit against Bravo, its parent company NBCUniversal, and the show’s production firm, Evolution Media. The new filing implicates Lisa Vanderpump directly and claims that the Vanderpump Rules matriarch allegedly told Faith to keep quiet if she wanted to keep her job.
Faith Stowers Claims That Her Experience Was Downplayed
“Out of concern for my job security, I held my tongue and refrained from reporting the incident to law enforcement or disclosing it to the media.”
However, moving forward, Faith’s contract was ultimately not renewed and she received no compensation despite being a “central part of the plot.” She also reveals she had signed multiple agreements with Bravo, NBC, and Evolution Media without legal counsel, lacking both the means to negotiate and clarity on what she was signing.
The lawsuit also details how, in the wake of the George Floyd protests and public outcry over systemic racism, Bravo and Evolution faced criticism for their handling of Faith’s complaints. Her filing notes that while several cast members were terminated for racist behavior, “they never reached out to Stowers herself.”
