An unidentified reporter was reprimanded by the New York Times for calling first lady Melania Trump a “hooker” at a New York event.

“At a party last night, a Times reporter who does not cover Washington or politics, referred to an unfounded rumor regarding Melania Trump,” a Times spokesperson told Politico in a statement Monday.

“The comment was not intended to be public, but it was nonetheless completely inappropriate and should not have occurred. Editors have talked to the reporter in question about the lapse.”

Supermodel Emily Ratajkowski was seated next to the reporter during a New York Fashion Week event on Sunday and commented on the remark in a series of tweets, calling the comment “disgusting sexist bull—t.”

Sat next to a journalist from the NYT last night who told me “Melania is a hooker.” Whatever your politics it’s crucial to call this out for — Emily Ratajkowski (@emrata) February 13, 2017

The 25-year-old Sports Illustrated swimsuit model slammed the “slut-shaming” of the first lady, who once posed nude in photos during her own modeling career.

what it is: slut shaming. I don’t care about her nudes or sexual history and no one should. — Emily Ratajkowski (@emrata) February 13, 2017

Trump filed a lawsuit against the UK’s Daily Mail for an article including the rumor that she was once a “high-end escort.”

In another tweet, Ratajkowski called out gender-based attacks.

Gender specific attacks are disgusting sexist bullshit. — Emily Ratajkowski (@emrata) February 13, 2017

It seems many were in agreement with the supermodel and the actions by The New York Times in response to their reporter’s inappropriate comments.

@emrata so many ppl think her past career as a MODEL posing nude, as a consenting adult, makes her evil. Uh, it’s a job…they’re pictures? — Jennifer (@yungjent) February 13, 2017

@scrowder It kills me how hypocritical the left can be, and we’re the “intolerant” ones. — Roger ?? (@uhohswegalert) February 14, 2017

@emrata I’m a Dem, voted for Hillary and completely agree. Who cares if she once posed nude, wrong to shame Melania for that. #FreeMelania — Tom ❄️ (@TommieWho) February 13, 2017

@emrata THANK YOU. I have been saying this for awhile now. It disgusts me when I see supposed feminists shame her for her sexual history. — Daniel Barham (@apeirophobic) February 14, 2017
