King Jnr ultimately left Treasure Island on Wednesday night and now that the “dust has settled”, King Snr has issued a public apology to his daughter.Advertise with NZME.

The apology comes after King Jnr revealed with a post on her Instagram story yesterday that she was being harassed online.

She later responded to her father’s heartfelt post by reposting it on her Instagram story with the caption, “for those hounding me about my dad & I… here’s some words from him.”

Taking to social media the mental health advocate said, “Now that the dust has settled I would like to take this opportunity to thank my girl, Alex King for putting herself out there for all of NZ to see in the name of raising some $ for charity.”
