The driver who accused supermodel Naomi Campbell of assaulting him said Thursday he “got angry and overreacted” and regreted involving the police, according to media reports Thursday.

“This whole thing has been blown out of proportion and I apologize to Ms. Campbell for causing that to happen,” driver Miodrag Mejdina said.

According to Associated Press, Mejdina told police Tuesday that Campbell hit him from behind and his head struck the steering wheel of the car, causing bruising under his right eye.

Police issued a harassment report, which doesn’t carry any penalty, because no officer witnessed what took place between the driver and Campbell.

Campbell, whose feisty temper has led to previous legal troubles, issued a statement saying she was pleased that Mejdina had apologized and that she wanted to move on.

“I have worked very hard on correcting my previous wrongdoings and I will not be held hostage to my past,” she said.

Campbell, 39, has faced a series of lawsuits and criminal cases accusing her of attacking her household employees and two police officers at London’s Heathrow Airport.

Campbell, of Britain, became one of the world’s highest-paid models after being discovered at age 15.
