When video footage emerged of Katherine Heigl talking to police outside her Los Angeles home wearing nothing but a tiny gold bikini, it seemed no-one could explain the bizarre scene.
Online sites reported that the incident was due to a noise complaint but that didn’t explain why both Katherine and her husband Josh Kelley answered the door in their swimsuits.
But the Life as We Know It star has set the record straight speaking to iVillage about the incident.
“I just love it because it’s the only scandalous, interesting thing that we’ve ever had to talk about,” she said.
The 31-year-old actress went on to explain the ongoing feud with her neighbour and why she didn’t think to cover up before heading outside.
“We were hanging out at home, just the two of us. We made ourselves some cocktails, and I had specifically worn a sexier bikini than I normally would because I hadn’t seen [Josh] in two weeks,” she said.
“We were just chillin’ in the hot tub, and my neighbour started screaming at us [to be quiet]. He’s done it like four times before, and it was so infuriating because it was nine at night and we were not shouting — just two people quietly talking and hanging out.
“I called my security and asked them to call the cops because at the end of the day, it’s harassment at this point.
“The cops showed up. We don’t put a towel on, we don’t put a robe on, we just go out there to chat about this neighbour we can’t stand, in our bathing suits and my boobs look ridiculous!”
Katherine and Josh, who have an adopted daughter Naleigh, welcomed the excitement saying: “We don’t really do anything that scandalous or that exciting, so the fact that we’re out talking to the cops in our bathing suits on a Monday night just cracks me up.”
