New York, March 5 (ANI): The driver who accused supermodel Naomi Campbell of assaulting him has apologized to her.
In a statement through his lawyer Earl Ward, Miodrag Mejdina said that he ‘got angry and overreacted’ when he told police the catwalk queen had attacked him with a cellphone from the back seat of a car while driving around Midtown.
The 27-year-old regrets calling the cops and has said it was a misunderstanding that was “blown out of proportion.”
“This whole thing has been blown out of proportion and I apologize to Ms. Campbell for causing that to happen,” the New York Post quoted him as saying.
In a statement, Campbell said, “On Tuesday, March 2nd I was accused of unacceptable behavior towards a driver in New York. I have worked very hard on correcting my previous wrongdoings and I will not be held hostage to my past. I try to treat everyone with respect and I am pleased the driver has apologized. I would like to put the last few days behind me and move on.” (ANI)
