Actress Selma Blair has spoken publicly for the first time since her arrest for allegedly assaulting two flight attendants and a nurse, expressing her regret and stating that she never intended to hurt anyone. Blair was arrested after an incident on a flight from Los Angeles to New York, where she was accused of attempting to open an airplane door mid-flight and assaulting airline employees. She pleaded not guilty to two counts of second-degree assault and was released on an $80,000 bond. Blair's representatives attributed her behavior to a severe medical emergency, stating that she missed several doses of medication and hit her head during the flight, leading to confusion and disorientation.
Blair, who was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 2018, took to Instagram to address the incident, apologizing to those she hurt and expressing gratitude for the support she has received. She emphasized her commitment to her health and her son, and mentioned that her service dog, Scout, is doing well. Blair's next court hearing is scheduled for January 19, 2027.
