Last week, Vanderpump Rules actors Brett Caprioni and Max Boyens left the series after making offensive tweets, and for reporting their black co-star Faith Stowers to the police for a crime she didn’t commit.
Several US TV networks, including CBS, Showtime and MTV, have reportedly hired a private investigator to search their own actors’ social media profiles for racist comments.
Reality TV series Below Deck Mediterranean also lost its star, Peter Hunziker, on Wednesday (17 June), following a racist Instagram post.
In a statement, TV network Bravo said: “Bravo and Evolution Media confirmed today that Stassi Schroeder, Kristen Doute, Max Boyens and Brett Caprioni will not be returning to Vanderpump Rules.”
