VANDERPUMP Rules alum Stassi Schroeder took the chance to reunite with her former co-stars, as she threw a lavish birthday party for her daughter.
The reality TV star, 33, pulled out all the stops for little Hartford's first birthday, including wrapping gifts in personalized paper and hanging special portraits on the wall.
Back in 2020, Stassi was fired from the Vanderpump Rules series over "racist accusations."
Bravo announced Stassi, along with cast mate Kristen Doute, would not return to the series after it was discovered they once called the cops on VPR alum Faith Stowers to make false claims.
Off-screen, Stassi's life took a happier turn as she gave birth to her adorable daughter in 2021 – describing being a mom as "the best feeling ever."
Stassi and partner Beau Clark adorned their home with colorful balloons and picked out the perfect fairytale frilly gown for Hartford to celebrate in.
The proud mom, who wore a black turtleneck sweater and tartan-style skirt, could be seen hugging her little girl tight as they celebrated in scenes aired on her Instagram Stories.
Stassi's former co-star Kristina Kelly gave a glimpse at the tot's "cute' fawn birthday cake, topped with a bunch of roses, while Stassi shared a cuddle with Katie Maloney-Schwartz.

SHOW SACKING
At the time of Stassi's show exit in 2020, the network released a statement which read: “Bravo and Evolution Media confirmed today that Stassi Schroeder, Kristen Doute, Max Boyens and Brett Caprioni will not be returning to Vanderpump Rules."
The statements came after Stassi and Kristen were accused by Faith of reporting her to the police for a crime that she was not connected to.
Stassi, Kristen and Faith all previously worked at SUR, Lisa Vanderpump's bar, located in West Hollywood.
An insider told Us Weekly: "Stassi was not expecting to be fired. She is surprised and upset."
The source added that she had "lost a lot of money from losing sponsorships and paid opportunities."
Racists tweets from Max and Brett also resurfaced.
All four reality stars apologized for their actions and words, but it didn't stop them from losing their jobs.
In the aftermath of the Vanderpump Rules shake-up, Stassi's mom reportedly called Bravo to beg for her reality star daughter’s job back following her firing this week.
"Stassi’s mom called Bravo to try and get her rehired,” a source told Us Weekly.
The ex VPR star’s brother, Nikolai Czermak, also said he was “desperate” to convince people to give his older sibling another chance.
