Will Smith apologies to Chris Rock for slapping him says “My behaviour was unacceptable”

After the trending slap incident Will Smith has taken to his Instagram yo apologise to Chris Rock for slapping him at the Oscars.

Following reactions after the slapping incident with most criticising Smith for being violent, he has now apologized. The King Richard actor said his “behaviour was unacceptable and inexcusable” as he was out of line. He added that he is embarrassed and his actions were not indicative of the man he wants to be.

Taking to his Instagram page, he wrote;

Violence in all of its forms is poisonous and destructive. My behavior at last night’s Academy Awards was unacceptable and inexcusable. Jokes at my expense are a part of the job, but a joke about Jada’s medical condition was too much for me to bear and I reacted emotionally.

I would like to publicly apologize to you, Chris. I was out of line and I was wrong. I am embarrassed and my actions were not indicative of the man I want to be. There is no place for violence in a world of love and kindness.

I would also like to apologize to the Academy, the producers of the show, all the attendees and everyone watching around the world. I would like to apologize to the Williams Family and my King Richard Family. I deeply regret that my behavior has stained what has been an otherwise gorgeous journey for all of us.

I am a work in progress.
Sincerely,
