NEWS… BUT NOT AS YOU KNOW IT
Stassi Schroeder has shared the meaning behind her newborn’s name, after giving birth to a baby boy.
The Vanderpump Rules star welcomed her second child with husband Beau Clark last week, confirming his arrival on Instagram over the weekend.
Alongside a selection of sweet snaps of the little one from her hospital bed – including the moment he was introduced to sister Hartford for the first time – the 35-year-old shared the unique name they had chosen.
‘MESSER RHYS CLARK, born at 12:04 am on September 7th, 7 lbs 14 oz, 19.5 inches,’ she penned.
‘We love him so much already, send prayers Hartford doesn’t terrorize him.’
Her Bravo co-stars were among those rushing to share messages of congratulations, with Katie Maloney penning: ‘I’m so happy for y’all! I can’t wait to meet him!!!’
Lala Kent agreed: ‘Welcome to the world, sweet boy.’
Kristen Doute replied: ‘I knew he was going to be born on the 7th. Just like his big sissy. I can’t wait to meet him! Love you guys so much.’
While many questioned whether Stassi and Beau had got the inspiration for their son’s name from A Court of Thorn and Roses, revealing themselves to be ACOTAR fans.

Amid confusion over the moniker, and where they got their inspiration from, the new mom took to her Instagram story to shed more light on the name.
‘Messer Rhys Clark. “Messer” is an old (like during the renaissance type of old) Italian form of address which would be the equivalent of something like “signore,” “sir,” or “mister”,’ the former Sur server simply explained.
Stassi started dating casting agent Beau in 2017, with much of their romance playing out on Vanderpump Rules.
Her partner got down on one knee in 2019, with the lovebirds walking down the aisle in a small ceremony the following year.
They went on to welcome daughter Hartford in 2021, and recently announced that they will be expanding their family with a baby boy.
Alongside a snap as she cradled her bump, Stassi confirmed in March: ‘Secrets stress me out. Baby #2, I love you so much already.’
