Chrissy Teigen apologizes to Courtney Stodden for cyberbullying in 2011

Twitter queen Chrissy Teigen had some apologizing to do for cyberbullying then-16-year-old Courtney Stodden online in 2011 after they married 51-year-old actor Doug Hutchinson.

“She wouldn’t just publicly tweet about wanting me to take ‘a dirt nap’ but would privately DM me and tell me to kill myself,” Stodden told The Daily Beast earlier this week. “Things like, ‘I can’t wait for you to die.’”

Teigen issued a lengthy apology to the model over her abusive tweets and DMs.

“Not a lot of people are lucky enough to be held accountable for all their past bullshit in front of the entire world,” Teigen tweeted on Wednesday. “I'm mortified and sad at who I used to be,” she continued. “I was an insecure, attention seeking troll. I am ashamed and completely embarrassed at my behavior but that is nothing compared to how I made Courtney feel."

Teigen said that she’s “worked so hard” to give her followers “joy” and “be beloved” by them. 

“The feeling of letting you down is nearly unbearable, truly. These were not my only mistakes and surely won’t be my last as hard as I try but god I will try,” Teigen added.

“I have tried to connect with Courtney privately but since I publicly fueled all this, I want to also publicly apologize. I’m so sorry, Courtney. I hope you can heal now knowing how deeply sorry I am,” she wrote in a follow-up tweet.

Teigen also apologized to her followers, writing, "And I am so sorry I let you guys down. I will forever work on being better than I was 10 years ago, 1 year ago, 6 months ago."

Stodden, who has shared their new pronouns, they/them/their, told TMZ that they accept Teigen's apology but threw a bit of shade in their response.

"I accept her apology and forgive her. But, the truth remains the same, I have never heard from her or her camp in private. In fact, she blocked me on Twitter," the model said, although Teigen did say she tried to reach out to Stodden privately.

"All of me wants to believe this is a sincere apology, but it feels like a public attempt to save her partnerships with Target and other brands who are realizing her 'wokeness' is a broken record," Stodden added.

This isn't the first time Stodden has mentioned the online bullying they received from Teigen over the years.

Last April, Stodden posted a video to Instagram about working on their first memoir and said that it's caused them to relive some of their past traumas, including "stalking" and "harassment" they received from Teigen.

"I'm going through a lot right now behind closed doors and I'm coming to a lot of, kind of like, revelations I guess about the choices that I made but also that the adults made around me when I was a minor and got married," Stodden began in the video.

"This video is definitely calling out Chrissy Teigen. She stalked me. She harassed me. She bullied me, and keep in mind, I was a minor," Stodden said.

"She would call me a whore, a slut, she would tell me she hated me. Every name in the book she called me," Stodden claimed, adding that they have screenshots of all the "nasty tweets" as proof.

Stodden also criticized Teigen for firing back at trolls online who were mocking her for her "square body."

"I saw her in the news the other day and it was something about how she's saying people are shaming her," Stodden continued of Teigen. "Girl, you are a hypocrite... I still see her bullying once in a while but when she comes out saying that she's stronger than people shaming her -- well, you shamed a minor."
