Faith Stowers Files Lawsuit Against Bravo for Discrimination and Harassment Over 'Vanderpump Rules' Treatment

Faith Stowers has filed a lawsuit over treatment she alleges she faced while on 'Vanderpump Rules.'

According to the lawsuit, filed on Friday and obtained by ET, Stowers claims Lisa Vanderpump -- a former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star whose restaurants are the settings of Rules-- recruited her for the show after allegedly expressing "a desire to add more 'color' to the cast." However, Stowers claims executive producer Bill Langworthy discouraged her from involving law enforcement or speaking to media about the alleged incident after she reported it to NBC and Evolution, the production company for VanderpumpRules and a third defendant in the suit. "For years," the lawsuit states, "Stowers refrained from taking legal action against NBC and Evolution because she was misled by the terms of her contracts into believing that she had waived her right to do so and released the responsible parties from liability."
