Rachel Riley issues apology to Jedward after 'spreading hate' claims amid Wiley comments

“Don’t think they’re that big on the grime scene though.”

It wasn’t long before the X Factor stars responded to Rachel’s remarks and told her how they didn’t approve of her message.

Jedward tweeted: “You are a patron for a Center for Countering Digital Hate? And yet here you are spreading Hate!!,” they told their 574,000 Twitter followers.

“As anti bullying ambassadors we don’t approve of this!” which was followed by a thumbs-up emoji.

Rachel then proceeded to share her previous reply to the duo and apologise for her “joke” as she added: “Genuinely didn’t mean any offence to you, was just a joke and you were the least grime people I could think of,” followed by a red love heart emoji.
