he was sorry "that this episode clouded the effort, passion and love of art that every single one of my colleagues in this production".

He continued: "Even though it was never my attention to offend anyone, The Situation deteriorated unexpectedly due to a brawl between colleagues.

"I'm truly saddened that my behaviour towards everyone in the cast, people whom I have always respected and continue to respect from the bottom of my heart, was perceived to be below Royal Opera House standards. "

He admitted his personality could be "very exuberant at times", promising that "what happened will not happen again in The Future ".

The episode "allowed me to learn a precious life lesson", he added.
