Marlo Hampton Apologizes To The Gay Community For Using the F****T Word
January 30, 2012GWL Staff
Marlo Hampton is sorry for what took place on last night's South Africa trip episode of "Real Housewives of Atlanta" which raised many an-eyebrows after she used the F word which the gay community is not happy about!! The fact Sheree & Marlo were literally across the world fighting like 10-year-olds over, Marlo not getting invited to Sheree's friend's party (despite the fact the two are NOT friends) is just embarrassing.
Sheree mentioned that her friend was gay, after the girls asked if this was more than a friend to her. In the video above, when the uninvited Marlo got offended that Sheree didn't invite her to Sheree's friend's party, she went off.
Marlo's exact words: "Well anyway, that's why you don't have a man. Go and hang with them f*****s with your ugly ass."
As usual, Marlo used her gift of too much gab to apologize today and explain her actions. She expressed her disappointment in herself and stated she wants to continue to build her "strong relationship" with the gay community. Here's what she posted on her website:
It is with great disappointment in myself and sincere regret that I would like to issue to my friends, my most ardent supporters, and my followers, this statement:I would like to offer from the bottom of my heart the fullest and most heartfelt apology for my recent use of an anti-gay slur. When I used this word, I was not mindful of the demeaning connotation that this has in the gay community. My speech was irresponsible, thoughtless and said with the intention of conveying anger rather than as a statement on my feelings towards the gay community as a whole.My first action, after the incident was to contact my closest friend and assistant of 8 years and to confess what I had done, to express my sadness and regret, and to ask him for his forgiveness. I was devastated at the thought of having hurt or embarrassed him as well as any member of the gay community and relish this opportunity to publicly apologize. My friends have embraced me, supported me, withheld judgment of me and have meant a lot to me over the years. I would never abuse their kindness and friendship and would never want to hurt them or demean them in any way.I applaud and admire this community for their triumph over a sometimes harsh, mean spirited society that discriminates and even violently attacks those who are different. These are obstacles that I relate to and that I have been inspired by them to overcome. I celebrate this community and am saddened by any indication otherwise, that my actions may have caused.I look forward to continuing to build my strong relationship with you, my followers and supporters, and those of you who do not yet know me and my heart. I look forward to work to regain your trust, respect and your love which has so empowered me over the years. I also thank you for allowing me to address you personally and to let you know how deeply sorry I am.With Love,Marlo
Sigh. Meanwhile, her friend and hairstylist Lawrence Washington, who also appears on "RHOA", tweeted last night:
