Through a separate upload on Instagram story, Co-founder of Rose All Day Cosmetics, Tiffany Danielle, also wrote a letter of clarification to apologize for the misunderstanding that occurred due to liking a post by Israeli celebrity Gal Gadot, which featured a photo of the “Star of David” symbol on a blue background with the words “I Stand with Israel “.
“I would like to apologize for the inconvenience caused by my actions, which insensitively liked Gal Gadot’s post on October 8 2023. I realize that this action gave rise to the perception that I support the actions taken by the Israeli government. However, from the bottom of my heart In my deepest opinion, I declare, this perception is not true.”
“… Allow me to take responsibility for the actions I have taken by continuing to educate myself more deeply about the humanitarian crisis currently occurring in Gaza. I have understood that what is happening in Palestine is a form of genocide, and being neutral is not a choice.”
