Try the video call test before meeting up. Works every time.

and honestly this is why I stopped trusting celebrity apologies altogether, I remember when I was dealing with a messy public apology situation at my old job and we literally had to screenshot every version of the statement before it went live because the person kept changing what they were sorry for based on the backlash. it's so telling when they edit out the specific incident because that's the whole point of an apology, you need to name what you did wrong or it's just noise. the fact that they went through three drafts specifically to water down the accountability part says everything about whether they actually mean it or are just trying to make the story go away. you're definitely not overthinking this, that's a huge red flag and it's smart that you caught it. next time someone pulls that move, save all the versions and compare them side by side, it makes the manipulation so obvious.
