Vanderpump Rules' Scheana Shay's Best Clapbacks for Mom-Shaming Trolls: 'Just Stop'

Sticking up for herself! Scheana Shay has chosen to defend herself against the parenting police time and time again. The Vanderpump Rules star announced in October 2020 that she is pregnant with her and Brock Davies’ rainbow baby after a previous miscarriage — and the reality star was mom-shamed only one month later. Ahead of her baby girl’s arrival, the California native has clapped back at comments about her belly button ring, her diaper purchases and more. The "Scheananigans With Scheana Shay" podcast host's mom, Erika van Olphen, even stood up for Shay when haters accused her of conceiving her baby as a “trend” following costars Stassi Schroeder, Lala Kent and Brittany Cartwright’s pregnancy reveals. (The Next Level Basic author shared her news in June 2020, followed by the Give Them Lala Beauty creator and the Kentucky native three months later.) "As Scheana’s mom, I’d like to first say ‘thank you’ to all the beautiful messages and well wishes,” Olphen tweeted in October 2020. “I’d also like to address those who think they know her story and or that she got pregnant as a ‘trend’ or a competition with her other castmates! First of all, if you truly knew Scheana and or followed her on her YouTube channel, you would know that she has struggled with fertility for years. She has gone through two rounds of freezing her eggs and while deciding to possibly do a third round, she was blessed with a pregnancy.” [sendtonews type="float" key="1q88IeSthf-2836929-14453"] She went on to address her daughter’s “sad” miscarriage, adding, "Afterward, her doctor advised her to wait one ovulation/one period cycle and she could try again! For those who said she should’ve waited six months, she followed doc’s orders. After waiting over a month, to our surprise she got pregnant again. Yes, she was scared but so very grateful!!” Prior to becoming a parent, the Bravo personality has been outspoken against Instagram trolls. When social media users told her to “grow up” in August 2019, asking her, “who dresses like that at your age,” she was quick to reply. “Grow up?” she said at the time. "So don’t go to costume parties? Got it lol.” Keep scrolling to see the “One More Time” singer’s parenting police clapbacks. [podcast_block]

Disgusting DM

In January 2021, the pregnant star received the "worst" DM via Instagram threatening to "kill" her baby-to-be. "This bitch has a photo with a kid in her profile!!!!" Shay wrote on her Instagram Story at the time. "Wow!!!

Laughing It Off

Perfect Purchases

Shay's Instagram DMs began "filling up" with negativity in January 2021, she wrote on her Story. "I DIDN’T ASK. THAT is my point! I didn’t ask about cat [litter]. I didn’t ask about belly button rings. I didn’t ask about how many diapers I need or don’t need. I didn’t ask for opinions on the Baby Brezza. And bc of dumb DMs like this, I will not be checking any more tonight. There was no ‘genuine important information' given to me. Goodnight Instagram.”

"@instagram why do you allow troll accounts?” she captioned screenshots of violent, hateful messages in February 2021. "Everyone please go and report this. WARNING! This one’s BAD!”

Plastic Surgery

In February 2021, Shay said on her Instagram Story that her followers were overly "concerned" about her boobs. "It’s crazy ... the amount of messages I’ve got from women saying, ‘They’re never gonna be the same after you breast-feed,'" she said at the time. "I don’t intend on getting any plastic surgery until I’m 60 and need a facelift so no plans on getting fake boobs. We’ll see what they look like after. Normally, I’m a 32B on a good day."

Horrifying Hater

"Please pray for this seriously disturbed individual,” Shay captioned a February 2021 Instagram Story screenshot of a violent, threatening message aimed at her baby-to-be. "I mean, to type these words is just beyond me. Please get help. And yes, I’ve blocked them and thankfully have thick enough skin to not let these bother me. But it’s just mind-blowing. Also, please go report this account. Thank you."

Time to Travel

Following her February 2021 Hawaii babymoon, Shay wrote via YouTube: "I know a lot of you may think I shouldn’t be traveling right now, but my doctor cleared me to go, we got tested regularly and have been as safe as possible."

Loving Her Lips

An Instagram troll told Shay to “age gracefully” in April 2021, writing in a DM: “Imagine your baby came out with lips like that or even wanting to change their own. What would you say to him or her? Come on! Use your platform to make a world better than you. Ego-driven fool.”

The reality star shared her reply on her Instagram Story. “Let me assure you that the only needle to touch my face in the last nine months is from my acupuncturist,” she wrote. “P.S. I’d love if my baby has big lips, and it looks like she does."

Hanging at the Hospital

Shay defended her decision to post a vlog at the hospital after daughter Summer's April 2021 birth, writing, "I AM only focused on mine and Summer's health right now. She’s doing just fine, and I’m improving each day here. I’m not ‘worried’ about my vlog. I already shot this and post every week, and it has some great CPR training for people. How about you watch over the next three weeks as I navigate through having HELLP syndrome at the hospital? Hasn’t been all sunshine and rainbows!”

Paywall

When an Instagram troll told Shay that giving Patreon supporters access to her birth vlog was “tricky [and] manipulative” in May 2021, the reality star replied, “Patreon is EXTENDED scenes and bonus footage. But thanks for thinking I would just have everyone follow my entire journey and then cut y’all off."

Facial Expressions

Shay hilariously showed off the “movement in [her] face” after an Instagram troll accused her of getting Botox in June 2021. “I can tell you’ve had Botox by those Spock brows of yours,” the hater wrote in a direct message. “Make sure you aren’t breast-feeding while getting Botox. It’s very harmful for your baby."

Hair Care

"To everyone who has commented on my hairline tonight: this was already my biggest insecurity and legit the only thing I usually would facetune,” Shay captioned a December 2021 Instagram Story post. “It is slowly coming back but I’m also still pumping milk every three hours since [my 8-month-old daughter], Summer, stopped latching. Not sure if breast-feeding is related to the hair thinning also but it’s happening to me. My hair was coming out in chunks. Next time, think before you comment."
