Bill Rancic is done biting his tongue. The season one Apprentice winner stayed silent all throughout wife Giuliana Rancic's recent Fashion Police controversy, but make no mistake — he is very firmly on her side.
"She's great. She is such a strong woman," he gushed of his wife on the Today show on Monday, May 4. "She's such an inspiration for me, and for our son [Duke, 2]. I mean, she's been through so much over the last eight years since we've been married. I love her, obviously."
Giuliana, a breast cancer survivor, has indeed weathered some storms — most recently, the fallout of her comments regarding Zendaya's Oscars hair. ("I feel like she smells like patchouli oil...or weed," the Fashion Police co-host infamously said of the Disney alum's dreadlocks.)
"It was tough," Bill admitted of the controversy, which ultimately led Kelly Osbourne and Kathy Griffin to exit the E! style series. "I was really surprised with how it happened," he continued. "Because, you know, her intent was to make a hippie joke. It had nothing to do with what some of these people were saying. And boy, it just took on a life of its own."
Indeed, the backlash continued even after Giuliana had apologized on air. She later blamed the scandal on poor editing, saying she understood "why people took offense" but wanted to "get out there and tell the real story."
