"It is something that we will forever deeply and unreservedly regret," explains the "Dead Pool" star in an interview. "It is impossible to make up for that."

In search of a suitable location for their wedding ceremony, the Hollywood stars seem to have ignored the history of the location. "What we saw then was a wedding location on Pinterest. What we saw afterwards was a location that was created on the basis of a devastating tragedy," admits the 43-year-old.

"We are ashamed that in the past we have allowed ourselves to be uninformed of how deeply rooted systematic racism is," said one line in the post. The couple also donated $ 200,000 to the NAACP (National Association for the Advancement of Colored People).
