American TV host apologises for 'insensitive' Prince George ballet comments

August 28, 2019

Good Morning America host Lara Spencer has apologised for her "insensitive" comments about Prince George taking ballet lessons.

Spencer discussed the backlash against her comments yesterday, saying she has learned the "bravery it takes for a young boy to pursue a career in dance."

She was heavily criticised last week when she heard Prince George loved ballet and she said "we'll see how long that lasts."

Spencer interviewed dancers Robbie Fairchild, Travis Wall and Fabrice Calmels yesterday. They all told their stories about the stigma they faced.

She says she hopes she has turned a negative "into a teachable moment."
