Here Is Billy Bush’s Statement on the Leaked Conversation Between Him and Trump

Here is the statement from Billy Bush that just landed in our inboxes:

Obviously I’m embarrassed and ashamed. It’s no excuse, but this happened eleven years ago – I was younger, less mature, and acted foolishly in playing along. I’m very sorry.

We’ve been wondering ever since audio leaked of him and Donald Trump discussing grabbing women “by the pussy” what he would have to say about his involvement. He says he is “very sorry.”

We’ll see if that’s enough for NBC.

UPDATE –– 12:22 a.m. ET: Trump has apologized. Watch the video here.
