In a lengthy Twitter thread, Chrissy Teigen apologized Wednesday for being a cyberbully.
The apology stems from recent accusations made by Courtney Stodden, 26, that Teigen, 35, previously told them to kill themself.
“Not a lot of people are lucky enough to be held accountable for all their past bullsh*t in front of the entire world. I’m mortified and sad at who I used to be,” she began the thread. “I was an insecure, attention seeking troll. I am ashamed and completely embarrassed at my behavior but that is nothing compared to how I made Courtney feel.”
Teigen admitted that Stodden was not her only victim. She says she privately reached out to Stodden but also wanted to apologize publicly.
Earlier this week, Stodden opened up about Teigen’s hurtful words in a Daily Beast interview. Stodden, who identifies as non-binary and goes by they/them pronouns, was just 16-year-old when the model told her to take “a dirt nap.” They also said Teigen sent them DMs telling them to kill themself and saying things like, “I can’t wait for you to die.”
At the time, Stodden rose to notoriety for being the young bride of 51-year-old Doug Hutchison. They told Daily Beast they experienced a lot of cyberbullying at that time.
is nothing compared to how I made Courtney feel. I have worked so hard to give you guys joy and be beloved and the feeling of letting you down is nearly unbearable, truly. These were not my only mistakes and surely won’t be my last as hard as I try but god I will try!!

I have tried to connect with Courtney privately but since I publicly fueled all this, I want to also publicly apologize. I’m so sorry, Courtney. I hope you can heal now knowing how deeply sorry I am.
