I felt emotional hearing it and I could tell that she really did mean what she said as she was apologizing."

The Teen Choice Award-winning actor said, "I was not expecting an apology. I wasn't asking for one, that was just my sister, you know, being very protective and wanting an apology." The DJ continued, "I was just shocked when I read it at first and pleasantly surprised, and then I went and listened to her podcast, and she basically made like an eight and a half minute apology to me." She also went on to add, "Thank you. I really, really appreciate you doing that. I know it's difficult for anyone to apologize, and for someone to do that really means a lot".
