On Monday, in a
statement posted to Instagram, he apologized personally to Rock for the first time.
"I would like to publicly apologize to you, Chris," he wrote. "I was out of line and I was wrong. I am embarrassed and my actions were not indicative of the man I want to be. There is no place for violence in a world of love and kindness."
So, it looks like Will's people have told him it would be best to apologize. As it turns out, Rock had made fun of Jada before she had the hair deal. In 2016 she boycotted the Oscars because of Will and Rock lit her up for it. This had been festering.
