Lisa Vanderpump Speaks Out About Racist Tweets by Her Show's New Stars Max Boyens & Brett Caprioni
The 59-year-old reality star condemned both Boyens’ and Caprioni’s previous statements — which included repeated use of the n-word — calling their old tweets “heinous.”
“I do not condone any of the heinous comments made in the past by Max and Brett and I am glad they understand the severity of their offenses and have shown utmost remorse and contrition,” Vanderpump said in a statement to PEOPLE. “I embrace a community of diversity and do not tolerate bigotry of any form within my workplace,” the restauranteur continued. “Max and Brett are both appropriately ashamed of their past obnoxious teenage arrogance and casual use of unacceptable terms. While both have now matured as adults, they have shown remorse for their prior reckless defamatory statements.”
“I do sincerely believe both have learned the power and impact words can have, and I have every hope this will be a lifelong lesson for them as we move into this new decade,” Vanderpump concluded.On Wednesday, Boyens made his Twitter account private, but not before several racist tweets were seen by PEOPLE and“It upsets me that the word n— is not allowed to be said unless you are black because quite honestly it’s my favorite word,” Boyens wrote on Twitter in 2012.
