“I know that I made a mistake by roping Michelle into something that didn’t have to do with her,” she shared, “but Jesse, he’s just trying to ruin my name by bringing up the most painful thing that I’ve ever gone through. I understand why Michelle is upset. It is the worst thing in the world to be labeled as anything let alone a racist. And nobody knows better than me, because it happened to me and I was cancelled.”
Calling the controversy “the hardest time of my entire life thus far,” the Sex, Love, and What Else Matters podcast host went on to claim she’s grown as a person since being fired from VPR.
“I’m not proud of what I did but I’m sorry that I hurt people,” Kristen continued. “But I’ve learned from my mistakes. These are my friends sitting here, they know my past and all I wanted to do was pick up the pieces and move on with my life, be a good person. People finally gave me a chance again and now it’s brought up all over again and now I’m gonna have to relive it again. I hope that my whole life doesn’t fall apart again.”
