David made remarks during a recorded audition back at 2020, which where he called one contestant a c*** three times, before making remarks about a female contestant, saying: "She's like the slightly boring girl you meet in the pub that thinks you want to [expletive] them, but you don't. She thinks you want to [expletive] her, but you don't. I know, she's just like: 'Oh, [expletive] off!' I was saying, she thinks you want to [expletive] her, but you don't.

At the time of the release, David released a statement that read: "I would like to apologise to the people I made disrespectful comments about during breaks in filming for Britain's Got Talent in 2020. These were private conversations and – like most conversations with friends – were never intended to be shared. Nevertheless, I am sorry.
