“I just want you to understand that, during that time, I had a team of people that [were] helping me. Whether they posted [or] I posted, it doesn’t really matter at this point,” she said during an Instagram Live on Wednesday, January 26. “For me, it’s on my account, and I take full responsibility and accountability for what was posted.”
“I know I hurt a lot of people. My viewpoint during that time in 2020 was emotional, and it brings back a lot of memories during that time when we went through such a tragic, terrible year,” she continued.
While Jennie called the posts “disgusting,” she noted that she’s a “proud” Republican and law-enforcement supporter.
“I want you to understand that my political stance, I still support that. I’m very proud to be a Republican. I am proud to be able to say I have the freedom of speech, too, and to have an opinion,” she explained.
“I don’t tolerate violence, but I do support my law enforcement. I know with every profession, there’s good, and there’s bad. I don’t support the bad. I don’t support the brutality with black people or with any race,” she disclosed. “But I do support my law enforcement, but that doesn’t make me racist. To support my political stance, that does not make me a racist. I want you to understand that.”
The fired Bravoleb was joined by her friend Michael, a black gay man, who insists that she is “not a racist.”
“Over time, I did have to educate her on the whole Black Lives Matter and everything like that because I’m a gay black man, so I live it every day,” he said. “Anybody that’s saying she paid him to be there or she pulled the friend card, I see all your comments.”
Michael added, “But here’s the reality. I know Jennie, and I know her character, and I know the person that she is inside. She’s not a racist.”
The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City airs on Sundays at 9 p.m. ET.
