No Stassi Schroeder birthday would be complete without a little chaos—and Vanderpump Villa delivered just that. The Vanderpump Rules alum made her reality TV return in Season 2 of Lisa Vanderpump’s opulent spinoff, with episode 7 featuring her much-anticipated birthday celebration at a grand Italian castle.
The festivities brought together Stassi’s inner circle, including her husband Beau Clark, her sister Georgianna Aubin, and longtime friend Taylor Strecker. Also in attendance was Beau’s Italian half-sister, Georgia Bardetti, whose presence ultimately stirred up emotional tension—and some vintage Stassi drama.
Though Stassi initially appeared cordial with Georgia, things took a turn when the conversation shifted to tattoos. It was revealed that Beau and Georgia each have the other’s signature tattooed on their bodies—a symbol of the close bond they formed as adults after meeting later in life. Beau had reconnected with his estranged Italian father as an adult, which is when he was introduced to Georgia.
Stassi, who has previously referred to her emotional outbursts as her “Dark Passenger,” saw her alter ego resurface after one too many Aperol Spritzes. The moment that pushed her over the edge? Realizing Beau had Georgia’s signature tattooed on him—but not hers.
Despite already having other tattoos representing Stassi, Beau was visibly uncomfortable as she aired her grievances at the dinner table. Georgia appeared caught off guard by the unexpected emotional flare-up. Stassi repeatedly stated that Beau’s decision not to ink her signature felt like a betrayal, especially when compared to the permanent tribute he shares with his sister.
Fans familiar with Stassi’s history on Vanderpump Rules—including the infamous moment when ex-boyfriend Jax Taylor tattooed her name in a failed bid to win her back—likely saw this clash coming. While it was meant to be a lavish celebration, the episode turned into another reality-TV moment underscoring the tension between Stassi’s desire for grand romantic gestures and Beau’s quieter style of affection.
As Vanderpump Villa continues, fans will no doubt be watching closely to see whether this birthday blow-up was a one-time misstep—or a deeper issue between the newlyweds.
