Katherine Ryan has admitted she tried to repair relations with Victoria Beckham after the BBC upheld complaints over a joke on *Have I Got News For You*
The comedian linked the fashion designer to an obscene term while discussing an alleged email from David Beckham about missing out on a knighthood
The BBC found a panellist’s language had editorial context, but ruled Ryan’s comment about Victoria was unjustified
Ryan said she regretted causing offence and had privately contacted Victoria, while acknowledging that motherhood and exhaustion were no excuse.
