Who is Nicole Curtis and what does she say? HGTV pulls Rehab Addict for defamation; star apologizes

The channel said in a statement, “HGTV recently became aware of offensive racial comments that were made during the filming of ‘Rehab Addict.’ Such language is not only hurtful and disappointing to our viewers, partners and employees, but is inconsistent with HGTV’s values,” according to The Independent. “As a result, we have removed the episode from all HGTV platforms. We remain committed to fostering a culture of respect and inclusion across our content and workplace,” the statement continued.

After the incident, Curtis also issued an apology. The message from her team was: “Regardless of context, she takes full responsibility for the impact. What happened was an apparent slip of the tongue — an incorrect version of a famous expression she said during 17 hours of physical labor and little sleep. Even so, she understands that intention does not undo the impact, and she is truly sorry,” according to Yahoo News.

According to her website, Curtis “began researching old homes long before the show arrived.” When the show premiered, she was “busy as a young mother, burning the candle at both ends. Juggling, real estatedesign, home restoration, and selling junk finds on Craigslist,” the website adds.

That was in 2015, and speaking about that time in last year’s People magazine, Curtis said: “Our family has been through a lot over the years, so it was definitely something I tried my best to keep my family out of the public eye and focus on the house. That’s always where we want to focus.”
