June 4, 2018 | Posted by Jeffrey Harris

Tom Arnold made an appearance on Good Morning Britain this week and spoke on the controversy surrounding his ex-wife, Roseanne Barr. You can check out the video in the player below.

Last week, ABC cancelled Barr’s TV revival of Roseanne after a racist tweet. The show was doing very successful after its return and was already picked up for a second season before the prompt cancellation.

According to Arnold, Barr is “obviously” a racist. He stated, “I base that on the last six months of her tweeting and social media.” He added, “You’ve got to get her phone away from her.”

Arnold continued that he was not surprised, stating, “I have to say, I saw it coming. I warned everybody.” He and Barr were married for four years in the 1990s. They were divorced in 1994. Arnold was a writer and actor on the original run of Roseanne.
