Chloe Madeley: "I was really stupid"

Chloe Madeley has apologised after being pictured smoking what appears to be cannabis.

The 21-year-old, the daughter of Richard Madeley and Judy Finnigan, said that she regrets her actions and is sorry for the embarrassment she has caused her family.

The photo, published in the News Of The World, reportedly shows Chloe smoking a bong at a Norfolk party last August.

The Mail On Sunday claims that Madeley and Finnigan confronted her after being shown the paper and she admitted her mistake.

"We've obviously spoken to Chloe and whilst we - like most parents - are aware that kids her age sometimes experiment, it is always a bad idea. However, she is an extremely sensible person, and now she knows that too," the couple said in a statement.

"I was really stupid. I regret doing what I did and have learnt my lesson. I am really sorry for any embarrassment I have caused my family," Chloe added.
