Stephanie Lynn Pratt 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.

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.

The fourth season saw Pratt's role increased, with more emphasis placed on her personal life. During the fifth season, Pratt began an internship with Kelly Cutrone's PR firm, People's Revolution, though Lauren ended Pratt's internship, per Cutrone's orders, due to poor performance. Despite rumors of not returning after the fifth, Pratt returned and was featured as a main cast member in the sixth and final season.

In 2013, Pratt made several appearances on television in the United Kingdom. This included being a guest on the spin-off of Celebrity Big Brother, as well as making a special appearance from episodes two onwards on season 6 of E4's Made in Chelsea, a British equivalent of The Hills. Pratt continued her role on the reality-series for the seventh series broadcast from April 2014. Furthermore, Pratt had a recurring role on spin-off show Made in Chelsea: NYC, which was broadcast from August 2014. On 18 August 2014, she entered the Celebrity Big Brother house for the fourteenth series as a housemate. Pratt lasted 19 days inside the house, before exiting on 5 September 2014. Pratt returned with a feature role for the eighth series of Made in Chelsea and met new boyfriend Josh Shepherd on the show. The couple's relationship moved from strength to strength with the pair enjoying Christmas of 2014 in Barbados. The couple then broke up during the filming of Made in Chelsea: LA.

Her memoir titled Made in Reality: From the Hills of L.A. to London's Made in Chelsea was released by Headline on August 13, 2015, and became a Sunday Times bestseller. In the book she discusses her relationships, struggles with drug addiction, eating disorder and the pressure of fame. In October 2016, she launched a now-defunct wellness website NutritionBySteph.com and supplements range called "To Be Honest".

MTV announced a reboot of The Hills entitled The Hills: New Beginnings at the MTV Video Music Awards on August 20, 2018. Pratt was announced as part of the cast of the new series. The series reunited the original cast members, alongside their children, friends, and new faces, and follows their personal and professional lives while living in Los Angeles. It premiered on June 24, 2019.

Pratt has been featured in several magazines such as the UK's FHM and OK!, and the US's Maxim, H, Us Weekly and Runway. She was signed to MiLk Model Management, a London modelling agency, in 2016.
