Overview
Stephanie Lynn Pratt (born April 11, 1986) is an American television personality. In 2007, she came to prominence after being cast in a supporting role on the reality television series The Hills. In 2010, the series saw Pratt become a primary cast member, joining Audrina Patridge, Lo Bosworth and Kristin Cavallari.
Early life
Stephanie Lynn Pratt is the younger sister of Spencer Pratt and the sister-in-law of Heidi Montag (both of whom appeared on The Hills). She attended Crossroads School alongside co-star Whitney Port. She took courses at the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising in Los Angeles but does not have a degree.
Career
In 2006, MTV developed the reality television series The Hills as the spin-off of Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County. It originally chronicled the lives of Lauren Conrad, who appeared on its predecessor, her housemate Heidi Montag, and friends Audrina Patridge and Whitney Port. In 2007, Pratt's brother Spencer began dating and later moved into an apartment with Montag, which led to the deterioration of her friendship with Conrad.
During the third season, Conrad ended her friendship with Montag after she suspected that Spencer was responsible for rumors of a sex tape involving her and her former boyfriend Jason Wahler; the ensuing feud between the three carried through each subsequent season. During production of the third season, Stephanie first appeared on the series while angrily confronting Conrad at a club. However, upon the realization that they attend the same college, they became friends. Their relationship put a burden on Pratt's relationship with her brother and Montag, who reacted by beginning to alienate her.
