Good Morning America co-anchor Lara Spencer has apologized after she was accused of making a sexist and stereotypical comment about one of Prince George’s favorite pastimes. (CNN)
She said during a segment that George, the eldest son of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, would be studying math, science, history, religious studies, computer programming, poetry and ballet. (Deadline)
Spencer paused after saying ballet as colleagues—including George Stephanopoulos—could be heard laughing in the background. As a photo flashed up on the screen showing Prince George lying in the grass with his mouth agape in a laughing pose, Spencer quipped, “He looks so happy about the ballet class. Prince William says George absolutely loves ballet. I have news for you, Prince William: We’ll see how long that lasts.” (THR / Rambling Reporter)
