Within the case of former Disney darling Hilary Duff and her boyfriend, health coach Jason Walsh, it was the latter: The pair donned full-out Native American and pilgrim costumes as a pair’s Halloween costume in 2016. In typical millennial trend, Duff took to social media to apologize. Hopefully, the singer and actress have actually realized from her embarrassing mistake.
