CNN host Don Lemon acknowledged a comment he made about women being past their prime over the age of 50 Thursday morning, saying he regrets making it.
“The reference I made to a woman’s ‘prime’ this morning was inartful and irrelevant, as colleagues and loved ones have pointed out, and I regret it,” he wrote on Twitter. “A woman’s age doesn’t define her either personally or professionally. I have countless women in my life who prove that every day.”
