Lily Allen accepts tweet apology

Lily Allen says she's received an apology from a soldier who she thought sent her an offensive tweet.

Earlier in the week the British Army said it would investigate the comments she claimed were racist.

She tweeted her complaint to about 20-year-old Harry Wilson's account to them.

The singer has now said on Twitter: "I have just received some flowers and a hand written apology from Harry Wilson, which I accept."

She added: "I hope we can all now move on. Thank you."

The Ministry of Defence said at the time that anyone who fell short of their high standards would face "appropriate action".

The 20-year-old had claimed his comments were taken out of context.
