“We apologize to Ms. Lewinsky and regret the way the situation was handled,” Town & Country wrote on Twitter Thursday.
Lewinsky had posted cryptically on Twitter Wednesday, “dear world: please don’t invite me to an event (esp one about social change) and –then after i’ve accepted– uninvite me because bill clinton then decided to attend/was invited.”
“It’s 2018. emily post would def not approve,” she wrote, referring to the famed etiquette expert.
She added, “P.S. …and definitely, please don’t try to ameliorate the situation by insulting me with an offer of an article in your mag.”
On Wednesday, Clinton introduced March for Our Lives panelists, including Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School students Emma González and Delaney Turr, at the magazine’s fifth Philanthropy Summit held at the Hearst Tower in New York City.
The invite-only event was billed as bringing together “activists, game-changers, and leaders across the field of philanthropy, education, healthcare, and gun control.”
Clinton’s press secretary denied the 42nd president knew Lewinsky had been disinvited.
Lewinsky, now an activist against social media bullying, was a former White House intern whose affair with Clinton was central to the developments that led to his impeachment.
