Arrow star Stephen Amell was removed from a flight

Stephen Amell opened up on Michael Rosenbaum’s Inside of You podcast about the shameful incident that got him kicked out of a flight. The actor addressed the incident involving his wife when they were traveling from a Delta flight that was leaving Austin, Texas, in June. On the podcast, the actor talked about the hot topic, which became a public scene.

Oliver Queen or the Green Arrow actor said,

“I had too many drinks in a public place. I got on a plane — and the reason that I wanted to talk about it is … I was pissed off about something else that had nothing to do with [Cassandra Jean], my wife. I picked a fight because I wanted to be loud and upset. It was a fight as in it was not an argument. In order to have an argument, two people have to be talking. My wife said one thing the entire time, which was, ‘If you don’t lower your voice, they’re gonna ask you to get off the plane.'”

Talking in detail about the incident, the Heels actor shared that he is deeply regretful of his actions. He shared with Michael Rosenbaum,

“This is 100 percent my fault and I feel like I went the better part of 10 years without being an a**hole in public. I was an a**hole in public. The whole thing sucks. It’s really shameful, and it makes you look in the mirror. I just realized a couple of things. If people are going to recognize us, don’t necessarily drink in a public place. But more importantly, don’t drink in a public place if you can’t handle your sh** … The B-side of it is the phone calls that you have to make, apologizing.”
