While she has remained pretty quiet until recently, where she tried to defend allegations that the piano diploma she was awarded was forged, the Instagram influencer has now come forward with a public apology.

Posted on her Instagram account, where she has a following over 1 million people strong, the apology mentions how she regrets having posted the offending Instagram story to begin with.
“I have offended nearly all my friends, family and supporters with my ‘M size’ post,” she admits.
She goes on to state that her Instagram post had not been meant to serve as criticism on women’s bodies as a whole, but was intended to be advice given to her friends who worked within the modelling industry.
“The post was intended for my model friends who like me, despite being of a healthy weight in the past, has previously been unable to secure a modelling job due to the size criteria imposed.”
The apology ends with the influencer expressing her gratitude at the fact that she was given the chance to learn from her mistakes, and become a better version of herself.
Well, we guess we can finally put this long, drawn-out drama to rest! Thank goodness for that!
