Sometimes it’s those closest to us who are hardest to convince … and that appeared to be the case for Spencer Pratt when he launched his long-shot bid to unseat incumbent Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass.

But after months of his sister, Stephanie Pratt, disparaging his bid and his supporters, she’s finally come around to understand and even endorse his commonsense platform.

Outlets reported on her change of heart: “I admit I was the first person to tell people that they were idiots if they voted for my brother,” Stephanie Pratt told Vanity Fair in an email related to a profile on him. She added, “Wow, was I wrong. He has spent every day since the fires finding the facts, the mistakes, the negligence, and uncovering the truth that they never wanted us to know.”

On social media, many of the former reality TV star’s supporters took a better-late-than-ever approach to his sister’s words of support. Others took a more sinister view of her shifting sentiment.

A rep for Spencer did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

Stephanie, 40, previously slammed her brother’s aggressive bid to snatch the high-profile office in the upcoming election on June 2. “Spencer has done great work for the palisades. But LA does not need another unqualified and inexperienced mayor,” Stephanie wrote of the 42-year-old mayoral hopeful, back in February. “He’s just trying to stay famous and sell his memoir don’t be fooled,” she continued in the since-deleted tweets, noting that “in an ideal world the palisades would have their own mayor and police department.”
