Emilie Kiser Apologizes For Taking Son Teddy Out of Life Jacket on Boat

Emilie Kiser is still being raked over the coals for removing her 1-year-old son's life vest momentarily on a boating trip in June ... and she's throwing herself at the mercy of the court of public opinion.

The social media star hopped on TikTok to post a video in which she once again acknowledged she and her husband Brady screwed up by taking off Teddy's life vest -- albeit briefly -- while floating out in open water in July.

Emilie says she's sorry to everyone she let down with her actions ... explaining he was getting fussy with the garment on -- but that's no excuse for taking off his life vest.

She captioned her post, “Thanks for listening 🤍 Hope you all have a safe and good weekend.”

As we reported ... Emilie and Brady took Teddy on a trip with influencer Madi Curtis and her family to Mallorca last month. Madi posted a video of their adventure, which included a shot of Teddy sans life vest -- sparking the controversy.

Of course, the negative attention was intensified because the couple's 3-year-old son Trigg drowned in their backyard pool last year. Emilie's since spoken regularly about water safety ... so the image of Teddy without a life vest sent the internet into a frenzy.
