Stephanie Pratt is urging people not to give brother Spencer Pratt their vote for mayor of Los Angeles as she makes several serious allegations against her older sibling.

More than a month after Spencer, 42, announced that he is running for L.A. mayor, his younger sister Stephanie, 39, spoke out against his mayoral bid in a series of posts on X. In the posts shared on Saturday, Feb. 14, she claimed that her brother — with whom she has long had a strained relationship — is only running in an attempt to "stay famous."

Stephanie also made several allegations against him while giving “a history of Spencer,” claiming that her older brother “beat” her, got her “hooked” on drugs during her teen years and was once in a cult. She also made reference to Spencer and Lauren Conrad’s infamous feud on The Hills.

“Spencer has done great work for the palisades,” Stephanie wrote on X. (Spencer and his wife, Heidi Montag, filed a lawsuit against the city of L.A. after their home was destroyed in the Pacific Palisades fire.)

“But LA does not need another unqualified and inexperienced mayor,” she continued of The Hills alum. “A vote for him is a vote for stupidity.”

In two of several subsequent X posts, Stephanie wrote that “in an ideal world the palisades would have their own mayor and police department,” and said that she “would love him [Spencer] to be” in charge of the neighborhood, but not the entire city.

“I have no problem with Spencer playing government but our city needs help,” she wrote.

Stephanie also claimed that her brother is “just trying to stay famous and sell his memoir,” referring to January's The Guy You Loved to Hate: Confessions from a Reality TV Villain.

After her posts urging people not to vote for Spencer inspired backlash, Stephanie also shared allegations of an alleged assault that occurred when she was 18, writing: “Everyone saying I should support him no matter what. Sorry he beat me up when I was 18 & put me in the hospital. So no he doesn’t belong in the government. Run the palisades all you want not LA.”

She also alleged that he got her “hooked” on drugs. “Almost forgot how it all started - he’s the one who got me hooked on hard core drugs at 15,” she claimed on X. “I’ve kept this all a secret for years. He also had a hidden drug addiction. Now do you get he shouldn’t be running LA. Thank you. Amen.”

Stephanie also alleged that Spencer was once arrested in Costa Rica for activity related to the alleged cult. “At least hire someone with work experience who wasn’t in a cult,” Stephanie wrote of her brother.

In September 2010, Spencer said he was arrested in Costa Rica for felony possession of a firearm, according to TMZ. It is not clear if he was ever charged or faced court following the arrest.

“And yes fact - I will always be on team Lauren Conrad,” Stephanie also wrote of her brother’s former Hills costar, with whom he famously feuded. “Those two spent years trying to destroy her life for magazine covers. I always side with the vulnerable who need help not the people inflicting pain on others.”

"Leopards never change their spots,” she said of her brother. "Stay in the palisades Spencer."

In a final post, Stephanie said she did not share her posts to put the spotlight on herself.

“I have no interest in fame, I’m taking a course to become a [Registered Behavior Technician] RBT my passion is helping children and adults with autism,” she wrote on X. “I don’t even use instagram. I’m serious about my new career helping people.”

Stephanie's latest posts are not the first time she has targeted Spencer on social media, as she has long had a fractured relationship with both her brother and his wife Montag, 39. Spencer has also called out his sibling on social media.
