The Club spoke to the woman and Franklin, and ascertained the initial conversation began because the pair share a mutual friend.
The conversation escalated following a comment made by the woman that Franklin took particular offence to.
On Monday, of his own accord Franklin discussed the matter directly with the woman, and both parties considered the matter closed.
CEO Stuart Fox said: “While disappointed the incident occurred, we’re supportive of the way Lance has since handled the matter given the circumstances.”
“As both parties have approached the matter in a professional and mature way following open discussions on Monday, the issue was mutually resolved in private.”
