Rachel Bilson Confronts 'Bling Ring' Member Gabby Neiers Years After She Robbed Her

etonline.com:

Rachel Bilson is confronting two controversial figures. On the latest episode of her  podcast, the 41-year-old actress sat down with Alexis Haines, née Neiers, and Gabby Neiers, sisters who were a part of the Bling Ring, the group that targeted and robbed celebrity homes, including Bilson's, more than a decade ago.At the start of the episode, Bilson admitted that she had «super conflicting feelings» about sitting down with the sisters, who recently recounted their crimes in Netflix's , before explaining why she chose to do so.«It's been a long time since any of this went down,» Bilson said. "… To be grown up and actually have real conversations is more important than harboring any awkwardness, animosity, any negative feelings that might come along with it.«With that, the group dove right in.

Haines told the actress that she was never inside her home — she participated in the group one time, going inside Orlando Bloom's house — but her sister had been inside Bilson's house one time.

Neiers' experience in Bilson's house, and her apology to the actress, was cut out of the Netflix docuseries, something that Haines called „so frustrating and so unfortunate.“»I'm grateful that you're allowing me to be here to [apologize] to you face-to-face.

I am so sorry that I ever made the choice to go into your home that night," Neiers said. "… I wish that I could take it back.
