Heidi Montag Talks Spencer Pratt for the Mayor of LA, the Palisades Fires, and Being a Mom
Long gone are the Laguna Beach and The Hills days when Heidi Montag spent her time feuding with Lauren Conrad, event planning for Brent Bolthouse, and constantly defending her hot-and-cold relationship with LC's nemesis, Spencer Pratt.
Life lately looks different, and Montag is a busy mother of two who is trying to restart her pop career and support her husband's run for the mayor of Los Angeles. And she's doing it all while rebuilding a home that was destroyed in the Palisades fires.
Who Are Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt's Children?
Montag and Pratt have a very public relationship. They started their romance in front of reality TV cameras, dating, moving in together, and eventually getting engaged on The Hills. The pair married in 2009 during Season 5 of the series, with castmates Brody Jenner, Kristin Cavallari, and Audrina Patridge in attendance.
Heidi and Spencer (a.k.a. Speidi) now have two children: Gunner Stone (born in 2017) and Ryker (born in 2022).
Even though the celeb parents have had a bumpy relationship, they're still happily married. Heidi recently opened up to pregnant Tay Lautner (who is expecting her first child with actor Taylor Lautner) on The Squeeze podcast, talking candidly about how she and Spencer maintain their relationship, "I have a mandatory once-a-week date night for Spencer and I. Even if he's on his phone the whole time, I'm like, well, we're together, and I have no expectation of the time."
Montag went on to say, "Intimacy is so important…And I think that's one of our actual secrets of marriage as well…it should be fun. It's just a time to connect, whatever intimacy is…I want to go to sleep in your arms."
What Did Heidi Montag Say about the LA Fires?
The reality TV stars lost everything in the 2025 Palisades fire. They are now in the midst of a lawsuit against Los Angeles and its Department of Water and Power, alleging that the city's water supply system failed.
The mom of two shared with Lautner, "I cried on the way over here thinking about, I know I get so sad about it, just thinking about you work so hard right for everything in your home and you love everything in your home and it's so curated and your childhood things and just your children's things and they're little clay pots they bring home and just stuff you can't get back. Things you can't buy back. So it's challenging."
Montag tearfully added, " I'm focused on my three-year-old saying he's going to push our house back up. He still says that like every day…And so everything is about like houses burning down. He's three, he thinks it's somehow his responsibility to push our house back up and that he's strong enough."
What Does Montag Think About Spencer Pratt's Bid for the Mayor of LA?
In what might seem like a shocking turn of events, Pratt is now a serious contender to become the mayor of LA. A now-viral ad has caught the attention of just about everyone, giving the reality star an edge.

During a separate interview, while attending the 2026 Billboard Women in Music event, Montag revealed, "It's a journey, and I couldn't be more proud of him for fighting for truth and righteousness and our family and our community and our city. And I am so proud of him. We both have a lot going on, so juggling those two worlds, it's important to find time for each other and our family."
Speaking of that balance, how does Heidi do it all? When it comes to her career, she told Lautner, "I always say I'm a full-time mom and a part-time pop star. Because I am a full-time mom."
