Two years after Ashley Olsen’s run-in with the National Enquirer, her sister was embroiled in a scandal of her own. However, as with Ashley, Mary-Kate Olsen seemed to come away from this particular scandal unscathed. Sorry, Spencer Pratt. Yes, Mary-Kate’s longtime feuding partner, Pratt was involved.
To refresh, in 2007, Pratt copped to having sold pics of Mary-Kate to an undisclosed outlet for a nice sum of money. Said pic, he told Details (via People), suggested that Mary-Kate was drinking underage — a serious blow, given that Mary-Kate was one half of the world’s most wholesome duo at the time. That said, it is worth noting that the “scandal” of Mary-Kate possibly drinking actually ended up being overshadowed by Pratt’s involvement. Mary-Kate famously admitted to going to high school with the reality star in a 2008 appearance on “The Late Show with David Letterman,” and the interview took a turn to poking fun at Pratt and his own sleazy rep.
Naturally, Pratt was not thrilled, and several years down the line, he took to TikTok to dispute the claims that they went to school together. It’s a little weird that he didn’t mention that back in 2008, when he told Us Weekly Mary-Kate was a “troll” (via Access Hollywood). However, in yet another TikTok, he also pointed out that even with the bad blood, “The Olsens are billionaires, so I … think everything worked out.” Yeah … we’re not sure that exempts him from anything.
