Last week, Brooks Ayers produced some medical documents to prove that he has cancer. The documents, which were shown in an interview with Melanie Bromley of E! News, showed amounts exceeding $30,000 worth of treatments at City of Hope hospital in Duarte, California. But upon further investigation, the website confirmed that Ayers was never treated for cancer in the hospital. A representative for City of Hope also told E! that no one by the name of "David Brooks Ayers" was treated at its cancer treatment center.

On Wednesday, Ayers released a statement to E! News admitting that he fabricated the documents. In his statement, the businessman said, "Words cannot express the deep regret that I have in fabricating documents to 'prove' to the world that I, in fact, have cancer. What I did was wrong and inexcusable."

Ayers added that he acted alone, without Vicki Gunvalson's knowledge, and that he produced the documents in hopes of putting doubts about his cancer to rest. He said that he never intended to disclose his medical history, and that's why he presented falsified documents for a storyline on "The Real Housewives of Orange County."

Ayers said that this would be the last time that he would talk about his medical condition.

"From this day forward, my own personal journey with this disease will remain private as I initially intended over a year ago," he said. "I made a mistake yet I have learned a huge lesson as well."

Meanwhile, Gunvalson gave an emotional interview to "Extra" host Mario Lopez on Wednesday when she found out that Ayers was never treated for cancer at City of Hope hospital.

"I'm completely shocked. I've seen the bills, I went to City of Hope," said the reality star. She explained that she waited for Ayers for hours in the hospital while he was allegedly getting his first chemotherapy treatment.

"He was there all morning so how do you think anything other than he's getting chemo?" she said.

Gunvalson said that she was guilty of loving Ayers and believing in him. She also said that she thinks her "RHOC" co-stars believe that she "was in on the scam," adding that she would never make up something like this.

All throughout the 10th season of the Bravo show, Ayers's cancer was a huge point of conflict between Gunvalson and her fellow castmates, particularly Shannon Beador, Tamra Judge, Heather Dubrow, and Meghan Edmonds.

"I'm embarrassed. I want to tell the girls I'm sorry," she said.
