Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 14 Oct, 19:21 · Archive

Selma Blair's boyfriend Andy Kiernan has asked the public to pray for the actress after her violent outburst on a Delta flight.

Actress Selma Blair, 54, was arrested after a violent mid-flight outburst aboard Delta Flight 938 from Los Angeles to New York City on Sunday. During the incident, she became physically disruptive and injured several people, including flight attendants. According to 911 audio, the pilot reported an 'abusive' passenger had caused 'a bloody nose as well as some bite marks' among crew members.

After the plane landed at John F. Kennedy International Airport, Blair kicked a police officer and assaulted a nurse at a hospital where she was taken for evaluation. She was subsequently charged with two counts of second-degree assault and entered a not guilty plea on Monday. Judge Indira Khan set bail at $20,000 cash or $60,000 bond, with a court date scheduled for January 2027.

Blair's on-again, off-again boyfriend Andy Kiernan, whom she began dating in 2024, posted to Instagram asking the public to 'pray for Selma'. 'She has a good heart. She hasn't yet got the help she needs,' he wrote, also asking followers to pray for Blair's 15-year-old son Arthur. Blair's representative stated she 'experienced a medical emergency that led to the alleged conduct' and is currently in 'stable condition'.
