Cincinnati Enquirer: Cincinnati Ballet to ‘Good Morning America’ host Lara Spencer: ‘Let’s empower all children’

Days after “Good Morning America” host Lara Spencer apologized for “insensitive” comments mocking Prince George for taking a ballet class, Cincinnati Ballet is working to support male dancers. 

The controversy began last week when Spencer brought up Prince George’s back-to-school plans in a clip published Thursday.

“In addition to the usual first or second-grade things like math, science and history, the future king of England will be putting down the Play-Doh to take on religious studies, computer programming, poetry and ballet, among other things,” Spencer said. 

The clip then cuts to images of the 6-year-old, but laughter can be heard from the “GMA” set.

“Prince William says George absolutely loves ballet. I have news for you, Prince William: We’ll see how long that lasts,” Spencer added with a chuckle.
