Stassi Schroeder is facing backlash after sharing what many have deemed an “out of touch” and “inappropriate” post on Instagram.
Just days after political activist Charlie Kirk was shot to death at Utah Valley University, leaving his wife Erika Kirk, 36, the mother of his two young children, widowed, the 37-year-old Vanderpump Rules alum shared a series of images of herself, suggesting she looked like a wife in “mourning.”
“It’s giving ‘I’m mourning my billionaire husband and about to inherit this townhouse,'” Stassi wrote in the caption of the September 13 post.
After her slideshow was posted, fans lashed out at Stassi, with one person telling her, “It’s giving, out of touch.”
“Stassi come on read the room,” wrote another.
Others begged Stassi to edit her caption, reminding the reality star that “there is someone who is very publicly mourning her husband right now.”
Someone else, a widow, called her out for making light of such a devastating event.
“As a widow who was 9 mos pregnant and had a toddler when my husband died – love u but nothing is ever funny about being widowed,” they wrote.
Although some were convinced that Stassi was “out of touch” about how “inappropriate” the post was, others came to her defense.
“The whole world doesn’t revolve around you guys in the comment section, get a grip and touch grass pls,” wrote a supporter.
“You look gorgeous 🙌 Ignore the hate,” wrote another fan.
