- BY ZOE SHENTON

ACTRESS Roseanne Barr has said she “forgives everyone who hurt her” after her show was cancelled when she shared a racist tweet.

She is still reeling from the controvers­y she sparked after comparing former Obama aide Valerie Jarrett to a character from Planet Of The Apes.

The 65-year-old suggested she was the victim after sharing a tweet saying the movie is one of her favourites.

The US star added: “I forgive everyone who hurt me. I forgive as fast as I can everyday.

“That is why I am able to live free. I want the best for everyone.

“I want no more racism or anti-semitism or classism.”
