Summer House's Paige DeSorbo Apologizes for Comment About Regé-Jean Page's Skin

Paige DeSorbo is apologizing for the comment she made about Bridgerton star Regé-Jean Page and his skin tone.
While on the Giggly Squad podcast, the 28-year-old was speaking about her choice for the next James Bond. She chose Regé-Jean. Her reasoning was: “Because … he’s real British, he’s light-skinned.”
During the most recent episode of the podcast, Paige issued an apology.
She noted that she “described an actor’s skin tone when describing his appearance, and I realize now how that could be offensive.”
“I wanted to take time to sincerely apologize to anyone that I may have offended,” she added. “It was not my intention, and I recognize what I said was wrong. I am completely committed to learning and growing, so I just wanted to take time today and sincerely apologize for my words from last week. I’m very sorry.”
Fans have been rallying for Rege-Jean to become the next James Bond due to his amazing performance as the Duke of Hastings in Bridgerton.
