Apology
While on a trip to India, Jade apologised for her behaviour. She admitted that her comments to Shilpa could be seen as racist. In a video posted on a newspaper's website, Jade tearfully said:
I know that things that I don’t think are necessarily racist ... could be. ... And I am sincerely sorry for the pain and hurt I’ve caused to Shilpa’s family. I am wrong ... I am wrong and I know that my words and my actions were wrong and I’m not trying to justify that in any way – I am wrong, and the people who have complained are not wrong. They’re just insulted by me and I completely take that criticism.

—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“The Irishman in English literature may be said to have been born with an apology in his mouth.”
