dailyrecord.co.uk:

A lot has happened since we all went to sleep here in the UK regarding the incident between Will Smith and Chris Rock. At the 94th Oscar awards on Sunday night, the actor got up on stage and hit the host in the face after he made a joke about his wife Jada's hair, even though she suffers from Alopecia.

The incident unfolded after the 57-year-old presenter's jibe about Jada Pinket Smith 's shaved head. He said: "Jada, can't wait for G.I.

Jane 2."But his joke wasn't found funny by all by Jada's husband Will, who stormed on to stage and hit him across the face.Will - who went on to win Best Actor later in the evening - went back to his seat and shouted: "Keep my wife's name out of your f****** mouth."Will's wife Jada has previously opened up about her shaved head after suffering from alopecia.So what's happened since the event?Despite apologising to the Academy on stage when he accepted his award for Best Actor, he made a statement on his Instagram apologising directly to Chris.He wrote: "Violence in all of its forms is poisonous and destructive."My behavior at last night's Academy Awards was unacceptable and inexcusable.

Jokes a my expense are a part of the job, but a joke about Jada's medical condition was too much for me to bear and I reacted emotionally."He continued: "I would like to publicly apologize to you, Chris.
