Nick Viall slams Hannah Brown’s “terrible apology” after N-word backlash

Per E! News, Nick Viall revealed that he wants Hannah Brown to “own up to her mistakes.” Just days after she made headlines for filming herself saying the N-Word, the latest member of Bachelor Nation is speaking out. He shared a snippet from an upcoming episode of his The Viall Files podcast. In the clip, Nick says that he feels that Hannah should be “held to a high standard.”

First, Nick addressed Hannah’s platform. She currently has over 2.8 million followers on Instagram. So, he feels that she has a responsibility to be a good role model, especially to younger women. Nick also ponders the question if Hannah was drinking during her Instagram Live post. He feels that using the N-word “in any context whatsoever” is not good role model behavior. And Nick is not happy with Hannah’s apology either.

“Certainly not a good one,” Nick Viall said. “And she has to be held to a high standard. We all do. And it is very disappointing to see. Honestly, her initial response was disappointing.”

Nick doesn’t feel that Hannah is racist. He just feels that posting the video was irresponsible. The former reality star is also disappointed with the way that Hannah has addressed the situation on Instagram. Nick questioned whether Hannah’s apology was genuine and sincere.

“She has since posted a written apology on her Instagram Stories that is set to expire,” Nick continued. “As Rachel said on her Instagram Live, that doesn’t read as sincere.”

Nick also questioned whether Hannah wrote the apology herself. He called her statement “terrible” and “insincere.” In addition, he called her use of the racial slur “very ignorant.”

Nick hopes that Hannah will learn from her mistakes. But he has his doubts since he feels she reacted poorly to the situation. However, he wants to know what she will say or do after this blows over.

Hannah was slammed on Saturday, May 16 for saying the N-word while doing a TikTok dance to the rapper DaBaby’s song “Rockstar” on Instagram Live. The Dancing With the Stars champion claims she didn’t know she used the word but later apologized on her Instagram Stories for her “unacceptable” language. But the video showed Hannah smiling while saying the N-word.
