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.
