Caprice spoke out against cancel culture, calling it “toxic” during a Health and Wealth Summit in Tiverton on Friday.

Caprice, who appeared on a panel alongside politician Nigel Farage, explained: “We are very lucky to live in this country and have freedom of speech. Don’t let anyone take that away from you.
“We have to appreciate these rights and fight for them.”
She continued: ‘I don’t want to be part of cancel culture. We all make mistakes, but with cancel culture, whether you survive or not depends on who you are.

‘That’s not right, who are we to judge? I think we have to be very careful.’
As nearly 300 people lined up to take a photo with the star, Caprice added: “People are trying to cancel freedom of speech.” Some people simply try to cancel someone because they have an opinion that is not acceptable to them.
“I really hope the toxic trend goes away.”

She said, ‘Oh, it was so long ago. But do you remember Limp Bizkit? This guy named Fred Durst (the lead singer, now 53), he and I were like vibing…he was presenting an award and we were talking all night.
“My publicist looked at me and said, ‘Cap, it’s seven o’clock, you have a flight in an hour and a half,’ and I said, ‘Okay, Fred, see you later.’
“I got on the plane back to London and then I collapsed and then I got this text from Fred, which said, ‘I hope you don’t mind, I have your number, but I have a first class ticket to come to New York.’ Let’s eat”.
‘I was like “So what? Are you kidding?” And you know, back then I had the mentality that I could do everything myself. I didn’t need anyone to buy me anything.
‘But still, I did it… I got on the plane and went to lunch with him and realized it wasn’t for me and then I got back on the plane and went back to London.
‘At least I definitely don’t have any ‘what if’ moments. I did quite a bit in the past.
Revealing why she was upset about the date, Caprice said: “Oh, it was a bit empty, you know, the conversation.” He’s a really nice guy. He was a super nice guy, but there just wasn’t any connection.”
