The ex-husband of Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) apologized Friday to three Muslim women for an incident police called “disgusting.”

Perry Greene was caught on video heckling the women in a mall parking lot just north of Atlanta on March 31. The women said they were praying at the time.

In a clip of the incident, Greene talks out the window of his Tesla Cybertruck to tell them they were “worshipping a false god” and reportedly ordered the U.S.-born trio to “go back to your country” multiple times.

“All of it was just out of pure hate,” one of the women said, per Atlanta News First.

The victims said to CNN that they had gone to the mall in Alpharetta for a treat to mark the end of Ramadan.

Their legal team demanded an apology, according to the outlet, and Greene met with the women at their mosque before he issued his public mea culpa.

“I came today just to meet with the young ladies that I was mean to and treated disrespectfully about their religion and about what they were doing,” Greene said during a news conference in Johns Creek, Georgia. “I just wanted them to know that I humbly apologize to them because no one should be treated that way, and that’s not the right way for us to treat anybody. ... We shouldn’t allow that in our society.”

Greene didn’t take questions.

In a statement to CNN, Alpharetta police said Greene’s verbal attack was “disgusting” but was protected by free speech and did not constitute a crime.

The victims’ attorney, Ali Jamal Awad, said a lawsuit is on the table but could be dropped if Greene donates to an anti-Islamophobia organization.

“People do make mistakes,” Awad said, per Fox 5 in Atlanta. “But you have to ask yourself, why? Why is it that Muslims are so targeted and so attacked in this community?”

Anti-Muslim incidents in the U.S. rose to an all-time high in 2024 amid the war in Gaza, according to the Council on American-Islamic Relations.

Meanwhile, the far-right congresswoman, who married Greene in 1995 and had three children with him before their divorce was finalized in 2022, made headlines recently for berating a British journalist in a similar tone. “Go back to your country,” she told the Sky News reporter.
