Patricia Heaton perplexed by Harrison Butker’s speech controversy: 'I find nothing offensive'

Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker has received another defender amid controversy, this time in the form of actress Patricia Heaton.

Butker delivered a commencement speech at Benedictine College earlier this month that has become controversial to some over various statements he made in the speech, including discussing the role a woman can play in a family’s home. Heaton, known for her role in the sitcom Everybody Loves Raymond, said she did not understand the controversy herself, noting how the speech’s audience applauded several times while Butker was talking.
