James Kennedy has issued an apology after sharing a photo with Andrew Tate and Tristan Tate on social media. The Vanderpump Rules star took the photo at LIV Las Vegas nightclub, but was unaware of the brothers’ controversies when he shared it.
Kennedy explained that he only knew the Tates as podcasters who had posted about Vanderpump, and did not learn about their alleged human trafficking and rape charges until later. He has since educated himself and condemned their beliefs, saying he regrets offending those who were upset by the photo.
The Tate brothers are currently under investigation in Florida for potential sex trafficking charges, and have also been accused of forming a trafficking group that exploited women in Romania. They deny the allegations but face extradition to the U.K.
Kennedy’s apology comes after the Vanderpump Rules star was recently arrested for misdemeanor domestic violence. The incident has raised questions about his judgment and behavior.
