He wrote: "It's always a good day when the H*ns get humped. Lol."
Since attracting controversy for the choice of the word, with one fan calling the tweet "really disappointing", Douglas has removed the post and issued an apology to his followers.
This morning, he wrote: "I’ve taken down a tweet I sent over the weekend. It was dumb and inflammatory and completely misjudged. My apologies to anyone offended by it."
