Feel free to laugh about Kristi Yamaguchi's "break a leg" tweet to Nancy Kerrigan. Just know that they are laughing about it too!

"Kristi loves Nancy and has nothing but respect for her," a rep for Yamaguchi told ET in a statement. "No ill will was intended with the tweet and Nancy herself has received and commented on the well-wishes that were sent. Kristi is finding the reactions on social media humorous but unfortunately for those who want it to have been shady, that’s not the case."

Kerrigan's rep also spoke to ET to shut down the shade talk.

"It is a shame that people are reading anything more into it than that but Nancy and Kristi spoke on the phone last night and had a good laugh about it."
