Chris Harrison and Girlfriend Lauren Zima Are Engaged

“Hello everyone, I have spent the last few days listening to the pain my words have caused, and I am deeply remorseful,” he wrote on Instagram in February. “My ignorance did damage to my friends, colleagues and strangers alike. I have no one to blame but myself for what I said and the way I spoke.”

“I set standards for myself, and have not met them,” Chris continued. “I feel that with every fiber of my being. Now, just as I taught my children to stand up, and to own their actions, I will do the same. By excusing historical racism, I defended it. I invoked the term ‘woke police,’ which is unacceptable. I am ashamed over how uninformed I was. I was so wrong.”
