Emily Ratajkowski's husband has issued a public apology for using the N-word.
Sebastian Bear-McClard took to Twitter to say sorry for incidents in his past in which he used the racial slur.
It came after BET’s style director Danielle Prescod accused him of using the N-word in front of her.
He and Emily have joined thousands of others across the US who have taken to the streets this week to protest against racism and police brutality towards black people.
Sebastian tweeted: "I used a word casually like it was mine to use. It's not, it never was and it never will be.
"In the past few years I've learned a lot about my privilege as a man and as a white person and about the history racism in this country."
He continued: "Owning our own missteps is a crucial part of changing the way the world operates
"I'm embarrassed and ashamed and I sincerely apologize to everyone who I may have hurt."
Emily had made a post about she feels "so useless" in the battle against racism.
Danielle Prescod suggested that she tell her husband not to use racial slurs.
She said: "I actually have an idea. You could start by talking to your husband, a white man, who has used the n-word repeatedly in my presence."
Prescod claimed that he used the slur so frequently in her presence at a party that another black woman left.
She told Emily: "You probably have never seen this behaviour.
"I would like you to address the issues in your home and then you can help us out here.
"I would like you to ask him what he can do differently … I mean this with the utmost sincerity. It was hurtful and abusive."
