After an alleged mid-flight outburst, Selma Blair was removed from her returning flight from Cancun, Mexico, to Los Angeles on Monday night. She was immediately rushed to a hospital.
Blair had reportedly been returning home from a Father’s Day weekend trip with her son, Arthur, and his father, Jason Bleick. In a statement to Vanity Fair on Tuesday, the actress apologized for her actions on the flight and expressed embarrassment over the entire incident.
“I made a big mistake yesterday,” Blair said. “After a lovely trip with my son and his Dad, I mixed alcohol with medication and that caused me to black out and led me to say and do things that I deeply regret. My son was with his Dad asleep with his headphones on, so there is that saving grace.”
“I take this very seriously and I apologize to all of the passengers and crew that I disturbed and am thankful to all of the people who helped me in the aftermath,” she continued. “I am a flawed human being who makes mistakes and am filled with shame over this incident. I am truly very sorry.”
Eloquently spoken, Selma Blair.
