Widespread condemnation of video mocking death of Michaela McAreavey
In the social media video, a number of men appear to sing about the murder of Mrs McAreavey.
Mr Bell and Mr McDade admitted it was an "offensive, vile and wholly abhorrent chant".
"This Facebook live video was not streamed with the intent of broadcasting any offensive chants whatsoever, rather it was generally broadcasting from the room.
"However, whether broadcast or not, the relevant chants should never have been sung either in public or private.
"We offer our sincerest and deepest apology to the Harte and McAreavey families, and indeed to wider society for our actions which whilst fuelled by alcohol, can neither be mitigated or excused in any shape or form.
"Our apology is unequivocal, and our acceptance of wrongdoing is absolute," the two men said.
The men, in a statement issued by
JWB Consultancy, said that the incident was not reflective of who they are.
