After calling out L’Oréal Paris for posting a statement of solidarity to the Black Lives Matter movement, Munroe Bergdorf has gotten a response from the beauty brand that immediately fired her in 2017 for blowing the whistle against racism.

“I have spoken with @lorealparis, please swipe for full statement,” Munroe shared via an Instagram post on Tuesday (June 9).
In a screenshotted statement by Munroe, the transgender model revealed that she had an “open and constructive conversation” with the president of the company Delphine Viguier, before being offered a “consultancy role, to sit on their UK Diversity and Inclusion Advisory Board [to help] influence and inform the brand.”
While what happened 3 years ago was extremely traumatic for me personally and professionally, sitting on a board to provide a voice and a champion for Black, trans and queer voices in the beauty industry is important to me.”
“It feels good to finally have closure on this matter and I look forward to new beginnings with the L'Oreal team.”
