RHOC's Brooks Ayers Releases Statement About Alleged Cancer Diagnosis, Confirms He Fabricated Documents

Both Brooks Ayers and Vicki Gunvalson are breaking their silence about his alleged lies about his cancer diagnosis, which has long been questioned since the story line on the Real Housewives of Orange County.

“Words cannot express the deep regret that I have in fabricating documents to ‘prove’ to the world that I, in fact, have cancer. What I did was wrong and inexcusable. I acted alone, without Vicki [Gunvalson]‘s knowledge, to produce documents for a reality TV show in hopes of putting doubts about my cancer to rest,” Brooks told E! News. “I never intended to disclose my actual medical records or details about my private and personal medical history, thus the rationalization of presenting documents that weren’t true simply for a ‘storyline’ for the show.”

“From this day forward, my own personal journey with this disease will remain private as I initially intended over a year ago. My sincerest apologies to my family, friends, loved ones, and those who are battling this horrid disease for any additional pain and/or stress that I have caused. As [University of Louisville basketball coach] Rick Pitino once said, ‘Mistakes can be good. They are fertilizer. Everything I’ve learned about coaching [life], I’ve learned from making mistakes.’ I made a mistake yet I have learned a huge lesson as well,” Brooks added.

“I don’t talk to him nor will I ever speak to him again. This man is sick,” she tweeted. “I am not the one who was untruthful – I loved a man and believed him just the way they believe their spouses.”
