Gypsy Rose Blanchard Is Supposedly Related To This Iconic Vanderpump Rules Alum
Stassi Schroeder was on "Vanderpump Rules" for eight seasons before being let go. After some public romances, she married Beau Clark in 2020 and they have two children — technically also related to Gypsy Rose Blanchard. Dr. Anita Newman's Instagram post described finding family ties between Gypsy Rose and the podcast host, and how links through the Acadia population came from Schroeder's grandmother on her father's side of the family. Newman noted that there were multiple connections between Gypsy Rose and Schroeder, "But the closest I've found so far is through Antoine Bourg (c.1609-c.1687) and Antoinette Landry (c.1618-c.1693), progenitors of the Bourg line in Acadia."
The genealogist continued, "Stassi and Gypsy Rose are at minimum 11th cousins, Stassi is 10th cousins once removed with Dee Dee [Blanchard]." As People notes, Schroeder loves true crime. Unsurprisingly, then, at the news that she and Gypsy Rose were technically family, the "Straight up with Stassi" host commented, "Omg I'm unwell," with emojis of laughing faces, skulls, and tombstones.
Newman replied, "I love this for you," and Schroeder responded, "Seriously wild. What a way to end the year." Another face from reality TV weighed in when Justin Anderson (Kristin Cavallari's hairstylist and BFF) commented, "I'm too high for this." However, that wasn't the end of the story. After her initial post, Newman connected Gypsy Rose and Schroeder to another "Vanderpump Rules" star.
